Horror Film and Otherness: Film and Culture Series

Autor Adam Lowenstein
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 iul 2022
Adam Lowenstein offers a new account of horror and why it matters for understanding social otherness. He argues that horror films reveal how the category of the other is not fixed. Instead, the genre captures ongoing metamorphoses across ¿normal¿ self and ¿monstrous¿ other.
