About this title

Review:

...a welcome advancement in studies pertaining to the Christian faith and the arts. It is clearly written, insightful, interesting, controversial at points, and trendsetting for further discussions.

--Jeremy Evans, Wake Forest "Southeastern Theological Review "

Scoring Transcendence stands as a benchmark for theology's involvement with cinema. It's spirited, and every page evokes an enthusiasm for cinema and theological criticism that readers are sure to find stimulating... Callaway's work could very well be the decisive text that brings theological film criticism into the fold of contemporary film scholarship.

--Brandon Konecny "Film International "

Adding its voice to the choir, Scoring Transcendence charts a new way forward for music in the field of film and religion, providing a coherent paradigm that elevates film music to its rightful place next to the images.

--Carl Laamanen "Music, Sound and the Moving Image Journal "

... an important contribution to Christian theological approaches to film.

--Choice
