Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

This book explores the ideas of the neglected English aesthetician
and art historian, Adrian Stokes. Stokes's Kleinian-based concepts
of carving and modelling are analyzed in relation to film, arguing
that they replace the traditional notions of realism and montage in
film theory and provide a set of aesthetics which encompasses
mainstream and "art" cinema. This Kleinian psychoanalytic approach
is applied to the films of Eisenstein, Rossellini, Hitchcock and
others.

Ludwig Wittgenstein loved movies, and based on his remarks on watching them, there is a strong connection between his experience of watching films and his thoughts on aesthetics. Furthermore, however, Wittgenstein himself has been invoked in recent cinema. Wittgenstein at the Movies is centered on in-depth explorations of two intriguing experimental films on Wittgenstein: Derek Jarman's Wittgenstein and Peter Forgacs' Wittgenstein Tractatus. The featured essays look at cinematic interpretations of Wittgenstein's life and philosophy in a manner bound to provoke the lively interest of Wittgenstein scholars, film theorists, and students of film aesthetics. As well, the book engages a broader audience concerned with philosophical issues about film and Wittgenstein's cultural significance, with the world of fin-de-siecle Vienna, of Cambridge in the first half of the twentieth century, of artistic modernism. |
