The Soul of Film Theory (Hardcover)

In contemporary film theory, body and mind have been central to
explorations of film form, representation, and spectatorship. While
the soul may seem to have no place here, the history of film theory
and its legacy to the present suggest otherwise. From the origins
of film theory - from Hugo Munsterberg through French Impressionism
to writings of the Weimar Republic - to the mid-twentieth century
work of Henri Agel and Amedee Ayfre, as well as Edgar Morin, the
soul emerges as a multi-faceted, if contested, concept. By
revisiting such key moments in the history of film theory, and
tracing the survival of this concept through to a range of
cutting-edge debates today, from the work of Vivian Sobchack to
Jean-Luc Nancy, Gilles Deleuze to Torben Grodal, The Soul of Film
Theory tells the heretofore tacit tale of the relation between
cinema and the soul, from classical to contemporary times, in
dialogue with philosophy, religion, and science.
