Cinema and Sacrifice: Angelaki: New Work in the Theoretical Humanities
Editat de Costica Bradatan, Camil Ungureanuen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 iun 2017
The contributors to this volume are not just scholars of film but also students of religion and literature, philosophers, ethicists, and political scientists, thus offering a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to the relationship between cinema and sacrifice. They explore how cinema engages with sacrifice in its many forms and under different guises, and examine how the filmic constructions, reconstructions and misconstructions of sacrifice affect society, including its sacrificial practices.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Angelaki: journal of the theoretical humanities.

Descriere
Cinema has a long history of engaging with the theme of sacrifice. It is on screen that new grand narratives are sketched, new myths rehearsed, and old ones recycled. Sacrifice can provide stories of loss and mourning, betrayal and redemption, death and renewal, destruction and re-creation, apocalypses and the birth of new worlds. This interdisciplinary book explores how cinema engages with sacrifice in its many forms and under different guises, and examines how the filmic constructions, reconstructions and misconstructions of sacrifice affect society, including its sacrificial practices. It was originally published as a special issue of Angelaki: journal of the theoretical humanities.
