Book Synopsis Uncanny Perspectives in Literature and Culture by : Gabriele Biotti
Download or read book Uncanny Perspectives in Literature and Culture written by Gabriele Biotti. This book was released on 2024-10-19. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays aims to analyse the uncanny as a concept developed in the field of the arts, from a variety of perspectives axed in the literary field, in the media context, and in film studies, with references to contemporary thought. The book aims to provide readers with a methodological updating on this psychoanalytic concept, starting from its basic rethinking, under the light of the different cultural backgrounds of the authors whose essays are collected. The book’s specific focus is in the research on the many faces the uncanny took in different experiences, forms of writing, ideas of art, theories, discourses, and experiences in creation. This shows, still today, not only the concept’s richness in defining our contemporary cultural context, but also its plasticity and its identity of notion-hinge between eras, ideas of representation, and forms of writing of various types.
