This is a much-needed intervention into the study of film and culture alike." — Ernest Mathijs, University of British Columbia, CanadaThis volume brings together original research on religion and cinema, specifically focusing on the Roman Catholic Church and Catholic organizations and individuals. Contributors look beyond the film text, content, or aesthetics, instead concentrating on the cinema-related actions, strategies, and policies developed by the Catholic Church and Catholic organizations in order to influence cinema. This volume looks at attempts of Roman Catholicism to influence and(as a notoriously complex social institution) "moralize" cinema beyond questions of representation, namely in terms of film policies, distribution, exhibition, censorship, criticism, and other areas of film culture.20% Discount Available - enter the code FLR40 atcheckout*Hb: 978-0-415-71264-4 | £68.00* Offer cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer or discount and only applies tobooks purchased directly via our website.For more details, or to request a copy for review, please contact: Sarah Collinssarah.collins@taylorandfrancis.comFor more information visit:www.routledge.com/9780415712644
