Recenzii
Sarah K. Balstrup's Spiritual Sensations is a noteworthy achievement. This study goes way beyond the description of religious motifs in film and the identification of filmic narratives as belonging to specific religious traditions and exposes how cinema-viewing can induce powerful religious and spiritual experiences.
I am thrilled with the new avenues of research such a book puts at the disposal of scholars of Religious Studies, Film Studies, and Western Esotericism. A great addition to the scant material on the topic.
This book will surely open new doors of perception in our scholarly understanding of how film and religion intersect.
Combining intellectual clarity with a profound understanding of film and the sacred, Sarah K. Balstrup successfully illuminates the sensations of cinematic impact. This book is extraordinarily rich in depth.
