The chapters contained in this handbook address key issues
concerning the aesthetics, ethics, and politics of violence in film
and media. In addition to providing analyses of representations of
violence, they also critically discuss the phenomenology of the
spectator, images of atrocity in international cinema, affect and
documentary, violent video games, digital infrastructures, cruelty
in art cinema, and media and state violence, among many other
relevant topics. The Palgrave Handbook of Violence in Film and
Media updates existing studies dealing with media and violence
while vastly expanding the scope of the field. Representations of
violence in film and media are ubiquitous but remain relatively
understudied. Too often they are relegated to questions of
morality, taste, or aesthetics while judgments about violence can
themselves be subjected to moral judgment. Some may question
whether objectionable images are worthy of serious scholarly
attention at all. While investigating key examples, the chapters in
this handbook consider both popular and academic discourses to
understand how representations of violence are interpreted and
discussed. They propose new approaches and raise novel questions
for how we might critically think about this urgent issue within
contemporary culture.
