Representing the Woman

Cinema and Psychoanalysis

More about the book

Exploring the intersection of cinema and psychoanalysis, this work delves into the representation of gender in narrative film. Elizabeth Cowie critically examines how identification, fantasy, voyeurism, and fetishism shape the viewing experience, challenging traditional notions of cinematic pleasure for both men and women. By integrating Freudian and Lacanian theories, the book offers fresh insights into the construction of feminine and masculine spectatorship, highlighting the complex dynamics of gender representation in film.
