Drawing a comparison between religion and cinema-going, this
text examines a range of contemporary films in relation to key
theological concepts. Cinema as a religion-like activity is
explored through cognitive, affective, aesthetic and ethical
levels, identifying the religious aspects in the social practice of
cinema-going.
Written by a leading expert in the field, Theology Goes to the
Movies analyzes:
- the role of cinema and Church in Western culture
- the power of Christian symbols and images within popular
culture
- theological concepts of humanity, evil and redemption,
eschatology and God.
This is an ideal text for students seeking a new way into the
study of theology.
