CINEMATIC PHILOSOPHY - TAL S SHAMIR GEBUNDEN

In this book  Tal S. Shamir sets out to identify cinema as a novel medium for philosophy and an
important way of manifesting and developing philosophical thought. The volume presents a
comprehensive analysis of the nature of philosophy's potential-or  more strongly put  its
need-to be manifested cinematically. Drawing on the fields of cinema  philosophy  and media
studies  Cinematic Philosophy adds film to the traditional list of ways through which
philosophy can be created  concentrating on the unique potential of the cinematic medium to
effectively put forward and create philosophy. In the process  the book opens up innovative
horizons for new types of knowledge and wisdom grounded in contemporary contexts and
philosophical thought. Philosophy  best characterized as the love of wisdom  is not dependent
on a specific medium nor solely situated within written text or oral lectures. Shamir asserts
that philosophy can  should  and must be manifested and identified in a range of different
platforms.
