Adapting philosophy: Jean Baudrillard and *The Matrix Trilogy*
ISBN: 9780719075322 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Adapting Philosophy looks at the ways in which The Matrix Trilogy adapts Jean Baudrillard's Simulacra and Simulation, and in doing so creates its own distinctive philosophical position. Where previous work in the field has presented the trilogy as a simple 'beginner's guide' to philosophy, this study offers a new methodology for inter-relating philosophy and film texts, focusing on the conceptual role played by imagery in both types of text. This focus on the figurative enables a new-found appreciation of the liveliness of philosophical writing and the multiple philosophical dimensions of...

Postmodernism and Film: Rethinking Hollywood's Aesthetics
ISBN: 9780231174558 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. This volume focuses on postmodern film aesthetics and contemporary challenges to the aesthetic paradigms dominating analyses of Hollywood cinema. It explores conceptions of the classical, modernist, post-classical/new Hollywood, and their construction as linear history of style in which postmodernism forms a debatable final act. This history is challenged by using Jean-Francois Lyotard's non-linear conception of postmodernism in order to view postmodern aesthetics as a paradigm that can occur across the history of Hollywood. This study also explores 'nihilistic' theorists of the postmodern,...

Thinking in Images: Film Theory, Feminist Philosophy and Marlene Dietrich
ISBN: 9781844571017 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Thinking in Imagesaddresses the current crisis in film theory by offering a new methodology for interrelating theory and film texts. Drawing on the groundbreaking work of Michele Le Duff, Catherine Constable argues that philosophy is reliant on sociocultural images, such as the figures of the veiled woman, the femme fatale, and the seductress. Constable traces the key role such female images play in the theorizations of beauty, art, and truth offered by Nietzsche and his successors: Jacques Derrida, Sarah Kofman, and Jean Baudrillard. Recognizing that images are crucial to theorizing...
