Recently, scholars in a variety of disciplines-including
philosophy, film and media studies, and literary studies-have
become interested in the aesthetics, definition, and ontology of
the screenplay. To this end, this volume addresses the fundamental
philosophical questions about the nature of the screenplay: What is
a screenplay? Is the screenplay art-more specifically, literature?
What kind of a thing is a screenplay? Nannicelli argues that the
screenplay is a kind of artefact; as such, its boundaries are
determined collectively by screenwriters, and its ontological
nature is determined collectively by both writers and readers of
screenplays. Any plausible philosophical account of the screenplay
must be strictly constrained by our collective creative and
appreciative practices, and must recognize that those practices
indicate that at least some screenplays are artworks.
