Projected Shadows presents a new collection of essays exploring
films from a psychoanalytic perspective, focusing specifically on
the representation of loss in European cinema. This theme is
discussed in its many aspects, including: loss of hope and
innocence, of youth, of consciousness, of freedom and loss through
death. Many other themes familiar to psychoanalytic discourse are
explored in the process, such as:
- Establishment and resolution of Oedipal conflicts
- Representation of pathological characters on the screen
- Use of unconscious defence mechanisms
- The interplay of dreams, reality and fantasy
Projected Shadows aims to deepen the ongoing constructive
dialogue between psychoanalysis and film. Andrea Sabbadini has
assembled a remarkable number of internationally renowned
contributors, both academic film scholars and psychoanalysts from a
variety of cultural backgrounds, who use an array ofcontemporary
methodologies to apply psychoanalytic thinking to film.
This original collection will appeal to anyone passionate about
film, as well as professionals, academics and students interested
in the relationship between psychoanalysis and the arts.
