Angelos Koutsourakis Books

Exploring the concept of "Kafkaesque cinema," this book delves into its transnational roots and its critique of modernity, influenced by Kafka's insights. It examines the formal and thematic responses of this cinematic tradition to the ongoing crisis of liberalism from the late nineteenth century to today. Drawing from various humanities disciplines, the study serves as a comprehensive resource for scholars and students interested in film theory, world cinema, literature, and the interplay of politics and representation.

Making a compelling argument for the continuing relevance of Brechtian film theory and cinema, this book offers new research and analysis of Brecht the film and media theorist, placing his scattered writings on the subject within the lively film theory debates that took place in Europe between the 1920s?1960s.
