This interdisciplinary collection explores four distinct
perspectives about the mask, as object of use for protection,
identity, and disguise. In part I, contributors address human
identities within collective social performance, with chapters on
performativity and the far right and masked identities in political
resistance and communication. Part II focuses on the mask as a
signifying object with strong representational challenges,
exploring representations in festivals, literature, and film. Part
III investigates the ambiguous use of the mask as a protective and
concealing element, delving into visual culture and digital social
media contexts. Finally, Part VI draws on the work of Levinas and
Deleuze to investigate a philosophical view of the mask that
addresses memory and ethics within intersubjective relationships.
Questioning the contemporary world, using communication, sociology,
visual culture, and philosophical theory, the volume provides a
pedagogical and formative perspective on the mask.
