Ebook: Filmische Poetiken der Schuld: Die audiovisuelle Anklage der Sinne als Modalität des Gemeinschaftsempfindens

Open Access

How do cinematic images generate and transform a community’s affectively grounded sense of values?

This calculus is analyzed as a cultural practice that helps establish the conditions for political community and shapes its historicity.
