Screening the Afterlife is a unique and fascinating exploration
of the last things as envisaged by modern filmmakers. Drawing on a
range of films from Flatliners and What Dreams May Come to Working
Girl and The Shawshank Redemption, it offers the first
comprehensive examination of death and the afterlife within the
growing field of religion and film. Topics addressed include:
- the survival of personhood after death
- the language of resurrection and immortality
- Near-Death Experiences and Mind-Dependent Worlds
- the portrayal of heaven and hell .
Students taking courses on eschatology will find this a
stimulating and thought provoking resource, while scholars will
relish Deacy s theological insight and understanding.
