| Description: |
Michael O'Pray explores the ideas of art historian Adrian Stokes, who developed Kleinian-based concepts of carving and modelling. O'Pray argues that these concepts replace traditional notions of realism and montage in film theory and offer a set of aesthetics that encompass both mainstream and art cinema. |
| Synopsis: |
This book explores the ideas of the neglected English aesthetician and art historian, Adrian Stokes. Stokes's Kleinian-based concepts of carving and modelling are analysed in relation to film, arguing that they replace the traditional notions of realism and montage in film theory and provide a set of aesthetics which encompasses mainstream and 'art' cinema. This Kleinian psychoanalytic approach is offered to the films of Eisenstein, Rossellini, Hitchcock and others. |
