Reviews

Attuned to what Kristin Hole describes as Denis's cinema of affective reorientation and 'shared vulnerability and responsibility, Towards a Feminist Cinematic Ethics offers fascinating reflections on connections between Denis, Nancy and Levinas, while drawing productively on contemporary feminist philosophies of ethics, co-existence and the body. An insightful, imaginative and lucid study. -- Laura McMahon, Gonville & Caius College, University of Cambridge
