Description

Explore the complex relationship between visual theory and the life-size doll in this academic work from Routledge. Rosalinda Quintieri examines why the figure of the doll remains a central element in European and American visual culture. By looking at contemporary photographic and cinematic forms, the book investigates our fascination with simulacra and the concept of the double. This text provides a new way to understand a classical aesthetic motif through the lens of psychoanalysis. It addresses how doubling, fantasy, and simulation function within modern culture. It is a valuable resource for readers interested in the Lines of the Symbolic in Psychoanalysis series, offering deep insights into the anthropological complexity of these figures. This book serves as a study of how visual culture uses these forms to represent the uncanny and the simulated.
