Book Description Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Emotional Ethics of The Hunger Gamesexpands the 'ethical turn' in Film Studies by analysing emotions as a source of ethical knowledge inThe Hunger Gamesfilms. It argues that emotions,incorporated in the thematic and aesthetic organization of these films, reflect a crisis in moralstandards. As such they cultivate ethicalattitudes towards such phenomena as totalitarianism, the culture of reality television, and the society of spectacle. The focus of the argument is on cinematic aesthetics, which expresses emotionsin a way that highlights their ethicalsignificance, running the gamut from fearthrough guiltand shame, to love, angerand contempt. The central claim of the book is that these emotionsare symptomatic of some moralconflict, which rendersThe Hunger Gamesfranchise a meaningful commentary on the affective practice of cinematic ethics.''The Hunger Gamesmovies have become iconic symbols for resistance across the globe. Tarja Laine proposes that this is not caused by their status as exciting cinematic spectacles, but by their engaging our emotions. Laine usesThe Hunger Gamesas key texts for understanding our world, demonstrating that ethics do not originate from rational considerations, far removed from those mucky things called emotions. But rather that emotions are at the core of cinematic ethics.'-William Brown, Author ofSupercinema: Film-Philosophy for the Digital Age''In this elegantly written exploration of the relationship between aesthetics and emotion inThe Hunger Gamestrilogy, Tarja Laine illuminates the power of film to embody ethical conflict. Deftly interweaving film-philosophy and close analysis, Laine traces how these films mobilise complex emotions, nuancing our thinking about cinema and the spectator. Laine's book takesThe Hunger Gamesfilms seriously, demonstrating with verve why they matter.'-Catherine Wheatley,Senior Lecturer in Film Studies, King's College London, UK''In this fresh, engaging, and insightful study ofThe Hunger Gamesfilm trilogy, Tarja Laine explores the crucial role that emotions play in appreciation of the ethical qualities of the movies. She forges productive dialogues between a range of film theory, scholarship on moral philosophy, and debates on ethics, as she performs a multi-layered investigation of the aesthetic qualities of the trilogy, the multiple emotions embodied in these qualities, and the philosophical-ethical insights that are in turn embedded in these emotions. The cinematic connection between emotions and ethics that emerges through Laine's detailed textual analyses confronts us with complex moral dilemmas while enriching our aesthetic experience.''-Sarah Cooper,Professor, Film Studies Department, King's College London, UK 212 pp. Englisch.
