This book explores how cinema influenced leading American philosopher Stanley Cavell’s moral and social philosophy and thinking on everyday language.
Catherine Wheatley is Senior Lecturer in Film Studies at King’s College London. She has written articles and essays on a wide range of contemporary cinema topics, and is the author of Michael Haneke’s Cinema: The Ethic of the Image (2010), French Film In Britain: Sex, Art And Cinephilia with Lucy Mazdon (2013) and the BFI Film Classic on Haneke’s Caché (BFI 2013).
Wheatley deftly synthesizes the wide ranging and interdisciplinary
works of Cavell into a coherent unity.
