Description

Explore the intersection of faith and film with Hermeneutic Humility and the Political Theology of Cinema: Blind Paul. Part of the Routledge Studies in Religion and Film series, this scholarly work examines the tradition of Western religious cinema through the lens of St. Paul's political theology. Drawing inspiration from the biblical account of Paul's temporary blindness on the road to Damascus, Sean Desilets analyzes how certain filmmakers use the camera as a god-blind mechanism. By studying the works of directors such as Carl-Th. Dreyer, Robert Bresson, Pier Paolo Pasolini, and Carlos Reygadas, the book introduces the concept of hermeneutic humility. This perspective examines how the camera sits between the viewer and the divine, shaping our understanding of religious expression on screen. This text is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in film studies, theology, and the history of religious cinema.
