Abstract:

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University<br>This dissertation examines existing attempts to answer the question "Can film philosophize?" (the"CFP question") and offers an original, affirmative account of the possibility of philosophizing by means of film. Focusing OD. narrative fiction films, this dissertation shows how the practice of philosophy can be transformed, and its powers expanded, through its encounter with the realm of moving images. The first chapter presents the groundwork for such a discussion, laying bare the scope of the various theoretical bases through which film and philosophy h

Abstract:

My Ph.D thesis entitled 'Re-thinking Queer: A film-philosophy project' aims at articulating a discourse on sexual/difference by taking two critical steps: the first is signalled by a critical moving away from Queer Theory and its linguistic/cultural apparatus, on the basis of its failure to break away from a 'normative' (molar) notion of subjectivity; the second is related to an experimental coming together of philosophy and cinema - a coming together which actualises a thinking philosophically with film through the practice of writing as art. The thesis overall suggests a rethinking of 'queer

Abstract:

In an age where the historical event is mediated increasingly through the still and moving image, new stress is placed on the archival image as surviving evidence of and performer of history. Lost Film Found Film asks what the scope is for re-intervention by artists who engage with the documentary archival. What is found in their reappropriation? What is lost in the remix? Through a discussion of key works by Jean-Luc Godard, Hito Steyerl, Harun Farocki, Jayce Salloum, Johan Grimonprez and Eyal Sivan, Lost Film Found Film offers a definition and a description of what I have called the Cinema o

Abstract:

This thesis investigates Slavoj Zizek's methodology and his radical theories on love and universality , and explores their philosophical and linguistic reverberations within film analysis. In interrogating Zizek's methodological interest in parallax - a mode in which one grasps both the thing and its opposite simultaneously - as well as his philosophical and psychoanalytic focus on love, I argue that Zizek's work has changed the way that we think about both universality and film. Like Zizek's project of destabilizing traditional attitudes towards 'higher' and 'lower-order' culture and its anal

Abstract:

Over the past few decades, the relationship between film and philosophy has been an object of an intense debate among film scholars, revitalizing some basic theoretical questions about cinematic representations and their meanings. As a result of this debate, many recent works in film philosophy, adopting the approach identified with the term 'Film as Philosophy' (FaP), have considered film as capable of its own philosophical thought. from this specific research perspective, the thesis proposed a new methodological strategy in maintaining FaP. The main aim of this thesis is to develop a hermene

Shaw, Spencer. "Showtime : the phenomenology of film consciousness." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2002. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/3045/.

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis argues that the notion of film consciousness deepens a wide-range of philosophical issues in ways which are only accessible through film experience. These issues, directly related to the continental tradition, deal with consciousness, experience, intentionally and meaning. We look to the implications of the initial acts of film reproduction as it creates 'images' of the world which reconceptualise vision in terms of space, time and dimension. We move from ontology to experience and examine an aesthetic form with radical implications for spectator consciousness. These issues are expl

Abstract:

The republication of Theory of Film: The Redemption of Physical Reality by Siegfried Kracauer (1889-1966) in 1997 marked not just the highpoint of a period of renewed interest in his work, a period initiated by a series of events organized to mark the centenary of his birth, but also the limit of his scholarly influence. Though enthusiasm for his early sociological and cultural criticism written in Frankfurt and Berlin during the 1920s and 1930s continues to permeate research in numerous other disciplines within the humanities, his film theory continues to have little or no impact on the debat
