Dear Elizabeth and All,

"Fictional Worlds: Traditions in Narrative and the Age of Visual Culture" has several chapters on fear in film, particularly the chapters on the origin of cinema (1), the symbolic journey and death-rebirth (3, 4), catastrophe (6), tragedy (7), violence (8), mystery and crime (9), and film noir (10).

Please get in touch off list if you have any questions or comments.

Kind regards, and best wishes for the new academic year to all!

I'm putting together a syllabus for an introductory level philosophy class that considers fear as one of its themes. I would welcome suggestions of films, tv episodes, etc. that have something philosophically interesting to say about fear. The suggestions need not themselves be fear inducing. Feel free to reply to me off list. If there is general interest I can compile and send out all of the suggestions.

Many thanks for your help,

Elizabeth
