[Commlist] Asian Cinema 36.2 published - Special Issue: ‘Aesthetics of Fear’

Intellect is pleased to present Asian Cinema 36.2!


This Special Issue explores the theme of ‘Aesthetics of Fear in Asian 
Cinema’. The issue brings together articles focusing on the themes and 
structures of cinema from various parts of Asia. The terminology 
‘aesthetics of fear’ involves the consideration of fear as a fluid, 
open-ended cinematic tool as well as a methodology and medium in itself 
for cinematic expressions of arts, affect, creativity, ecology and other 
relevant relationships that revolve around fear dynamics.
