Rezension zu „Seeing Fictions in Film: The Epistemology of Movies “
must be read by anyone who wants to be up to speed on the theory of narrative, narration, and narrators in film and literature... His interpretations of particular works astutely combine contextual (e.g., author-related and film-historical) knowledge, careful attention to audio-visual detail, and a sharp grasp of the relevant themes. In sum, engaging with this challenging book will be crucial to an understanding of ongoing contemporary debates in the philosophy of film. It is highly recommended to both philosophers and film scholars. Paisley Livingston, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
