This new volume in the AFI Film Readers series presents a long overdue reassessment of European cinema and film theory, and explores how a new Europe and a new European cinema have informed one another. In this collection of newly commissioned essays, established and emerging film scholars including Thomas Elsaesser, Tom Conley, Warren Buckland, and Noël Carroll, explore a wide range of topics including the philosophical origins of European film theory, the challenges it poses to dominant interpretations of realism and theatricality in cinema, inquiries into the "Europeanness" of European film theory, its relationship with contemporary politics and culture, and the "culture wars" between Continental and Analytical film theory.
