Description

Explore the complex nature of cinematic writing with A Philosophy of the Screenplay, part of the Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy series. This academic volume addresses the fundamental questions that scholars in philosophy, film, media studies, and literary studies are currently asking about the medium. This book investigates the ontology and aesthetics of the screenplay to determine what it actually is and how it functions. By examining whether a screenplay should be classified as literature or a specific kind of art, the text provides a deep look into the definition of the craft. Nannicelli argues that the screenplay acts as a type of artefact, where boundaries are set collectively by screenwriters. Designed for researchers and students, this work offers a formal investigation into the kind of thing a screenplay is. It serves as a necessary resource for those studying the intersection of media, philosophy, and the written word in the context of modern film production.
