Synopsis "New Takes on Film and Imagination: Paragraph, Volume 43, Issue 3 (in English)"
In contemporary film theory, cognitivist specialists have demonstrated the most sustained interest in imagination, pioneering an earlier wave of scholarship on this topic, principally with reference to spectatorship. In the 1990s, investigations into identification and mental simulation on the part of spectators (Gregory Currie) and the theorization of viewers as imaginative agents (Murray Smith) spearheaded just some of the studies of imagining as a cognitive process, which took as their principal object of analysis mainstream cinema. This volume acknowledges the inspiration of earlier cognitivist accounts and is not conceived as a break with the old. It does seek, though, to explore questions that were not covered in that earlier research and thereby further cognitive enquiry, as well as open consideration of film and imagination to other theories and philosophies, in addition to a broader selection of films.
