The Transparent I - Self/Subject in European Cinema

This study analyzes the representations of human subjectivity in a number of European films, from "Pandora's Box" to "The American Friend." The various analyses incorporate the issues prominent in current post-structuralist discourse, psychoanalysis, existentialism, and to some degree, contemporary art and science. The study challenges the assumptions of "suture" theory, while discussing extra-textual relationships between films and culture.
