Description de l'ouvrage :
Establishes resonance as a critical and conceptual paradigm for film analysis
• Brings together, for the first time, the work of three of the leading figures in European film: Agnès Varda, Michael Haneke and Jean-Luc Nancy
• Establishes resonance as a critical and conceptual paradigm for film analysis by untethering it from sonority and foregrounding how it deals with matter in movement, exploring it philosophically, critically and sensuously
• Yokes together discussions of resonance, the image, the body and being from across Nancy’s oeuvre in order to illustrate how they demonstrate a particular propensity for the study of film
• Elaborates further the Nancean vernacular, in particular resonance, being, the image, filmer/to film and blood

Since the pioneering work of Vivian Sobchack, Laura U. Marks and Jennifer M. Barker, film studies has increasingly embraced multisensory spectatorship. Such approaches privilege a carnal vision and knowledge of the world. Vital Resonances furthers this work and attunes to what is a foundational, yet overlooked, principle of film studies’ bodily turn: resonance. In keeping with the soft touch that characterises some of this turn’s critical literature – the feel of velvet, the (frustrated) tactility of a sari, the skin of a lover’s body – resonance has been brushed over. Through the work of three leading figures in European cinema, Agnès Varda, Michael Haneke and Jean-Luc Nancy, this book establishes resonance as a critical and conceptual paradigm for film analysis, transforming it from a footnote to the bodily turn and finally placing it at the forefront of our fleshy encounter with film.

Revue de Presse :
This is an extremely insightful and elegant exploration of the work of Nancy, Varda and Haneke which uniquely aligns the specificity of such cinemas in order to stage a brilliant encounter, rethinking notions of embodied spectatorship and its varying ethics of viewing pleasure.– Davina Quinlivan, Kingston University
