Description de l'ouvrage :
The first collection of critical essays on the film work of the philosopher Jacques Rancière
Jacques Rancière rose to prominence as a radical egalitarian philosopher, political theorist and historian. Recently he has intervened into the discourses of film theory and film studies, publishing controversial and challenging works on these topics. This book offers an exciting range of responses to and assessments of his contributions to film studies and includes an afterword response to the essays by Rancière himself.

Revue de Presse :
Rancière and Film’s strength is that it both introduces readers to the timely ideas of an un-conventional thinker and sets forth some provocative interpretations. Those who know Rancière may find its applications intriguing, and those who are not familiar with the thinker may find themselves wanting to read the original, to think things through for themselves. In this way, the collection is faithful to the real democratic potential of cinema and the true force of Rancière’s egalitarian thought.– Nina Belmonte, University of Victoria, Philosophy in Review
The sheer amount of research, scope of contributions and argument put into Ranciere and Film make it an engaging and thought-provoking text for study into Ranciere’s writings and of film study. Researchers in the field will find much to praise as the scholars critically engage with the material and frame new angles for consideration, leading to a far more enriching experience than merely spelling out where they believe the answers lie. Informative and provoking, it is a welcome encouragement to explore film study further.'– Sam Beaton, Scottish Journal of Performance
These magnificent essays set Rancière's writings on film squarely in the context of his work on aesthetics, politics, and cultural studies. No less, readers will marvel at Rancière's tersely drawn postface, in dialogue with the preceding chapters, attesting to the origins, the trajectory, and the impact of a lifelong relation with cinema.– Tom Conley, Harvard University
