Ingmar Bergman's films had a very broad and rich relationship with
the rest of European cinema, contrary to the myth that Bergman was
a peripheral figure, culturally and aesthetically isolated from the
rest of Europe. This book contends that he should be put at the
very center of European film history by chronologically comparing
Bergman's relationship to key European directors such as Carl
Theodor Dreyer, Jean-Luc Godard, Michelangelo Antonioni, and Andrei
Tarkovsky, and also looks at Bergman's critical relationship to key
movements in film history such as the French New Wave. In so doing,
it demonstrates how Ingmar Bergman's films illustrate the demonic
struggle in modernity between faith and secularity through "his
intense preoccupation with the malaise of intimacy."
