Description:This book explores how experiences of traumatic isolation and neglect - in childhood and in adulthood, and at both the family and the state level - may create a desire in us to be parented by certain kinds of screen media that we unconsciously believe may be watching over us when nothing else seems to be.Andrew Asibong explores how viewers make psychical use of eerily moving images, observed in film and television and later taken into an already traumatised mind, in order to facilitate some form of reparation for a stolen experience of caregiving. It explores the possibility of a media-based working through of both the general traumas of early environmental failure and the particular traumas of viewers racialised as Black, eventually asking how politicised film groups in the age of Black Lives Matter might both heal from a troubled past and prepare for an uncertain future through the spontaneous discussion - in the here and now - of enlivening images of potentially deadly vulnerability. Post-traumatic Attachments to the Eerily Moving Image will be of great interest to academics and students of media, film and television studies and psychoanalytic studies.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
