Description

Explore the complex intersection of cinema and philosophy with The Tarantinian Ethics. Published in association with Theory, Culture & Society, this book examines how the screenplays and films of Quentin Tarantino raise significant comic and ethical dilemmas. Authors Botting and Wilson use Lacanian psychoanalysis to study ethical issues within the context of postmodernity and recent cultural theory. This text offers a deep look at how Tarantino's work contributes to modern accounts of contemporary culture. It introduces the concept of the 'Tarantinian' to describe a specific set of sampled, self-authorizing signs. These signs are cinematically assembled through processes of consuming, producing, and expending within a postmodern landscape. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in film industry studies, cultural theory, and the philosophical implications of modern filmmaking.
