The Book of the Film* is a publishing project made at isdaT, presenting initial research on books in film openings. I first collected appearances of these generic books in films, which I then supplemented with theoretical texts. Finally, a typology based on the images in the collection concludes this edition.

*The title is a reference to a parody scene featuring generic books in the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
