• Samenvatting
  'Warped Minds' explores the transformation of psychopathologies into cultural phenomena in the wake of the transition from an epistemological to an ontological approach to psychopathology. Trifonova considers several major points in this intellectual history: the development of a dynamic model of the self at the fin de siècle, the role of photography and film in the construction of psychopathology, the influence of psychoanalysis on the transition from static, universalizing psychiatric paradigms to dynamic styles of psychiatry foregrounding the socially constructed nature of madness, and the decline of psychoanalysis and the aestheticization of madness into a trope describing the conditions of knowledge in postmodernity as evidenced by the transformation of multiple personality and paranoia into cultural and aesthetic phenomena. -Temenuga Trifonova is Associate Professor of Cinema and Media Studies at York University in Toronto. Her teaching and research focus on theories of film and photography; film and philosophy; psychopathology and cinema; film criticism; contemporary American cinema; European cinema; theories of globalization and identity; cross-cultural andcross-genre film remakes; and screenwriting. She is the author of The Image in French Philosophy (2007), European Film Theory (2008), and director, writer and producer of the feature film Man of Glass (2012)
