[ecrea] Symposium: The Phenomenological Turn in Film Studies, Saturday 25 May

Colleagues working on film, philosophy and thought may find the event 
below of interest:

*The Phenomenological Turn in Film Studies*

Film phenomenology has branched out from the groundbreaking work of 
Merleau-Ponty, Sobchack, Marks and Barker into new and exciting areas of 
embodiment and experience. In this the first of a series of study days 
at QMUL considering contemporary turns in film scholarship, we will hear 
from scholars pushing at the forefront of film phenomenological 
boundaries: Sarah Cooper (King's), Katharina Lindner (Stirling), Jenny 
Chamarette (QMUL) and Anat Pick (QMUL). Bringing these scholars together 
to consider film phenomenology from queer, feminist, embodied and 
non-human perspectives, as well as filmic encounters with athletic, 
differently abled, ailing, healing and breathing bodies, this day offers 
an unprecedented and unique opportunity to investigate and assess 'the 
phenomenological turn'.
