Film Bodies Av Katharina (Late Of University Of Stirling Uk) Lindner

<p>In <i>Film Bodies</i>, Katharina Lindner took film studies into a new direction, integrating queer and feminist theory with film phenomenology. Her groundbreaking book explores the presence of women''s bodies in movement in a range of genres, including the dance film, the sports film and queer cinema, providing detailed textural analyses of <i>Black Swan </i>(2010), <i>The Tango Lesson </i>(1997), <i>2 Seconds </i>(1998), <i>Offside </i>(2006), <i>Tomboy </i>(2011), and<i> Girlhood</i> (2014), and discussing the queer feminist encounters they give rise to. <br><br>Published after Lindner''s untimely death in 2019, this new paperback edition of <i>Film Bodies </i>includes a special foreword by Jenny Chamarette, exploring the embodied, time travelling nature of Lindner''s work. "Trailing gloriously in the wind behind <i>Film Bodies</i> are all the beginnings, the experiences that shape it, the visceral connections that give the book a bodymind from which to speak."</p>
