"Aesthetics and film" is a philosophical study of the art of film.
Its motivation is the recent surge of interest among analytic
philosophers in the philosophical implications of central issues in
film theory and the application of general issues in aesthetics to
the specific case of film. Of particular interest are questions
concerning the distinctive representational capacities of film art,
particularly in relation to realism and narration, the influence of
the literary paradigm in understanding film authorship and
interpretation, and our imaginative and affective engagement with
film. For all of these questions, Katherine Thomson-Jones
critically compares the most compelling answers, driving home key
points with a wide range of film examples. Students and scholars of
aesthetics and cinema will find this an illuminating, accessible
and highly enjoyable investigation into the nature and power of a
technologically evolving art form.
