From the proto-cinematic sequencing of animal motion in the
nineteenth century to the ubiquity of animal videos online, the
histories of animal life and the moving image are enigmatically
interlocked. Animal Life and the Moving Image is the first
collection of essays to offer a sustained focus on the relations
between screen cultures and non-human animals. The volume brings
together some of the most important and influential writers working
on the non-human animal's significance for cultures and theories of
the moving image. It offers innovative analyses of the
representation of animals across a wide range of documentary,
fiction, mainstream and avant-garde practices, from early cinema to
contemporary user-generated media. Individual chapters consider
King Kong, The Birds, The Misfits, The Cove, Grizzly Man and
Microcosmos, the work of Sergei Eisenstein, Robert Bresson, Malcolm
Le Grice, Peter Greenaway, Carolee Schneemann and Isabella
Rossellini, and YouTube stars Christian the lion and Maru the cat.
