{"product_id":"poetics-of-cinema-von-raul-ruiz","title":"Poetics of Cinema","description":"\u003cp\u003eChilean filmmaker Raoul Ruiz is the author of some 100 feature-length films, along with numerous plays and multi-media installations. In \u003ci\u003ePoetics of Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e, Ruiz takes a fresh approach to the major themes haunting our audio-visual civilization: the filmic unconscious, questions of utopia, the inter-contamination of images, the art of the copy, the relations between artistic practices and institutions. Based on a series of lectures given recently at Duke University in North Carolina, \u003ci\u003ePoetics of Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e develops an acerbically witty critique of the reigning codes of cinematographic narration, principally derived from the dramatic theories set forth by Aristotle's \u003ci\u003ePoetics\u003c\/i\u003e and characterized by Ruiz as the \"central-conflict theory.\" Ruiz's impressive knowledge of theology, philosophy, literature and the visual arts never outstrips his powerful imagination. \u003ci\u003ePoetics of Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e not only offers a singularly pertinent analysis of the seventh art, but also shows us an entirely new way of writing and thinking about images.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9782906571389\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9782906571389","offer_id":58219141562693,"sku":"9782906571389","price":24.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/a4e17a55-b8c5-4d82-85bc-26217fd937cc.jpg?v=1780979189","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/poetics-of-cinema-von-raul-ruiz","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
