Routledge Contemporary Introductions to Philosophy

The book provides a critical overview of the most important issues in the philosophy of film, from "What is Film?" to "Can Film Do Philosophy?" It provides an objective analysis of the principal arguments on each side of each issue. The set of issues includes all of the most important topics as well as some that are less well represented in the discipline, such as whether the power of cinema derives from its similarity to dreams. The coverage is more comprehensive and up to date than its chief competitors, and the presentation is more objective than the existing monographs that survey the area. Philosophy of Film: A Contemporary Introduction consists of 11, similarly sized and structured chapters, plus an introduction and a final References list. Each chapter begins with an overview and ends with a summary and an annotated bibliography to guide students' further readings. Each chapter also includes a short annotated filmography of illustrative examples. A companion website provides actual film clips, more extensive bibliographies, and other external resources, for each of the 11 chapters.

Routledge Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Literature

This book explores zombies, vampires, and witches in contemporary popular culture from a feminist perspective, analyzing a range of novels, television series, and films. Though some popular texts (from Harry Potter to Twilight) still use historically inherited conventions, many millennial texts (like True Blood, Maleficent, and The Walking Dead) utilize feminist-friendly monster-figures to critique regressive patriarchal ideologies, champion female monstrosity and female agency, and/or envision alternative socio-cultural formations. This book contributes to discussions in feminism, popular culture, gender and sexuality studies, cultural studies, film studies, and contemporary literature.

This book explores three monstrous figures prominent in contemporary popular culture—zombies, vampires, and witches—from a feminist perspective, visiting a range of novels, television series, and films from the 1990s-2010s. Though some popular mainstream texts (from Harry Potter to Twilight) still participate in historically inherited conventions, feminist analysis reveals that many millennial texts utilize monster-figures to critique regressive patriarchal ideologies and/or champion female monstrosity and (human) female agency. Rather than using zombies, vampires, and witches to conserve the status quo, millennial monsters and human heroes, especially female ones, are often deployed to envision a more feminist, egalitarian future with less violence and more social justice. In a culture in which post-feminist voices contend that feminists have achieved their aims and are thus no longer needed, this book argues instead that there still is a dire need for critical, active feminism. Monsters, creatures both incredibly potent and popular, can serve as conduits through which to lay bare existing problems and reveal possible ways forward. Popular texts like True Blood, Frozen, Maleficent, World War Z, and The Walking Dead use powerful female monsters and heroes not only to resist those forces that wish to maintain the status quo, but also to envision alternative socio-cultural formations. This book will contribute to essential discussions in feminism, popular culture, gender and sexuality studies, cultural studies, film studies, and contemporary literature.

Film Theory in Practice

The Film Theory in Practice series fills a gaping hole in the world of film theory. By marrying the explanation of a film theory with the interpretation of a film, the volumes provide discrete examples of how film theory can serve as the basis for textual analysis. This book provides a broad introduction to network theory and shows how this theory can motivate a close reading of Robert Altman's 1975 film Nashville. By offering a tour of the expansive intellectual network we can now call network theory, the book demonstrates how analyzing the ubiquitous characteristics of networks changes the way film fans, students, and scholars might understand cinema's storytelling possibilities. It models a method of interpretation (focusing on character, cinematography, and sound) that students can practice with other feature films. Moreover, it situates film within a larger discourse about art and society, offering students the tools for analyzing other large-form cultural objects. Organized into two parts, the first section of the book presents an overview of network theory, its various facets as a still-emerging discourse, and its historical context in post-industrial life, before turning to Altman's Nashville. It then explores the film's narrative style and character system as a special case of network cinema, to show how there is more than "connectedness" alone to the network form.

Das Handbuch denkt Medientheorien konsequent von den gegenwärtigen und zukünftigen Transformationen von Kultur, Technologie und Gesellschaft her. Die Struktur und die Begriffe des Handbuchs greife globale Trends und Probleme des Medienwandels auf, die auf das Engste mit den technologischen Entwicklungen und Veränderungen von Kultur und Gesellschaft im Ganzen verknüpft sind. 
Angesichts dieser Komplexität und der zentralen Rolle, die Medien in gesellschaftlichen Transformationsprozessen einnehmen, existieren Medientheorien nur im Plural und stehen vor der Herausforderung ihrer beständigen Neuerfindung. Das ›Handbuch Medientheorien des 21. Jahrhunderts‹ schreibt daher nicht bloß einen bestehenden Kanon fest. Medientheorie wird vielmehr als eine kreative Praxis verstanden, die den zeitgenössischen sowie nahzukünftigen Bedingungen und Herausforderungen des Medienwandels mit neuen Begriffen und Theoremen begegnet.Der Gebrauchswert des Handbuchs besteht darin, zentrale Problemlagen der (post-)digitalen Gegenwart und Zukunft zu adressieren. Renommierte Autor:innen aus Medienwissenschaft und angrenzenden Disziplinen zeigen auf, inwiefern Medientheorien die Analyse einer hochtechnisierten, globalen Medienkultur ermöglichen, welche eng mit den mannigfaltigen Prozessen kultureller Differenzierung und Identitätsbildung verschränkt ist.Für Forscher:innen wie für Studierende, die an aktuellen Problemlagen interessiert sind, versammelt das Handbuch maßgebliche Themen, Begriffe und Konzepte, die den ›state of the art‹ zeitgenössischer medientheoretischer Diskurse bilden und als ›cutting edge‹-Beiträge Pfade für zukünftige Debatten vorzeichnen. Im Sinne einer kreativen Aneignung suchen die Beiträge dabei den Rückbezug zu etablierten Autor:innen der Medientheorie aus dem 20. Jahrhundert (z. B. Benjamin, McLuhan, Kittler), aktualisieren und rekontextualisieren deren Einsichten aber im Hinblick auf die Herausforderungen der Gegenwart und Zukunft.Die Herausgeber*innenPD Dr. Christoph Ernst ist wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter der Abteilung Medienwissenschaft an der Universität Bonn.Dr. Katerina Krtilova ist wssenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Forschungsschwerpunkt Ästhetik und Koordinatorin des Doktoratsprogramms „Epistemologien ästhetischer Praktiken“, angesiedelt am Collegium Helveticum als Kooperationsprojekt zwischen der ZHdK, ETH und Universität Zürich.Prof. Dr. Jens Schröter ist Inhaber des Lehrstuhls Medienkulturwissenschaft an der Universität Bonn.Dr. Andreas Sudmann ist Privatdozent für Medienwissenschaft an der Universität Bochum und derzeit als wissenschaftlicher Koordinator und Principal Investigator für die Forschungsgruppe „How is artificial intelligence changing science?

Handbuch Medientheorien im 21. Jahrhundert

"A set of researchers on a compound that is itself a sociological experiment in systems theory [faces] danger and rising chaos as they discover that an unknown computer scientist lurks among them"--

A mind-bending graphic novel that teases devious thrills from the mysteries of systems theory. An isolated institute laid out in a Fibonacci sequence, hidden deep in the forest. Twenty-four labs. Twenty-four researchers. Until one of them disappears&nbsp;.&nbsp;.&nbsp;. When physicist Stéphane Douasy arrives to occupy the vacant twenty-fourth lab at the Institute for the Study of Complex and Dynamic Systems, an ominous problem rises in his wake: what has happened to his missing neighbor in Building F? When Stéphane’s neighbors, a discouraged linguist and a computer scientist bent on predicting the future, discover that the missing researcher may have solved the P versus NP problem—a coup in computer science with revolutionary implications for everything from mathematics to philosophy—before vanishing, things turn stranger still, and even more menacing. Solving the mystery of the Institute and its devolution into mayhem and violence every seventh year quickly shifts from being an intellectual exercise to a matter of life and death. The Phantom Scientist is part thriller, part mystery, part systems theory—and all enthralling. The tale slyly draws together linguistics, biology, astrophysics, and robotics in a mind-bending puzzle that will thrill and inform readers.

The Phantom Scientist

Regina Lawrence¿s new text argues that many films explicitly or implicitly portray aspects of power¿the central concept in the study of politics¿in patterned, predictable, and often problematic ways. By introducing a multi-faceted framework for thinking about the political nature of films, Lawrence explores three ways film can be studied by political scientists and scholars of political communication: the power of film to portray political reality, how films allocate resources, and the nature of film¿s portrayals of power.

Portraying Power follows the recent trend toward using popular culture and entertainment as a vehicle for explaining politics by pushing the line of inquiry into the study of film, the form of entertainment least explored by scholars of political communication. Film studies rooted in film theory and critical cultural approaches have a long and venerable history, but political science has thus far contributed very little to nor drawn much upon it. Regina Lawrence’s new text argues that many films explicitly or implicitly portray aspects of power—the central concept in the study of politics—in patterned, predictable, and often problematic ways. By introducing a multi-faceted framework for thinking about the political nature of films, Lawrence explores three ways film can be studied by political scientists and scholars of political communication: the power of film to portray political reality, how films allocate resources, and the nature of film’s portrayals of power. Covering a typology of film in terms of general form—from documentaries to "based on a true story" narratives to the purely fictional—and their political content—from explicit to implicit—Lawrence analyzes a broad array of films. This will be the only text on the market written by an expert on political communication that truly synthesizes the scholarly insights of political science, communication studies, and film studies. A companion website will includes basic background on film theory and technique, links to film clips and interviews with filmmakers, and other support materials for the text.
