Through an aesthetic of extended duration, films such as \u003ci\u003eBestiaire\u003c\/i\u003e (2010), \u003ci\u003eThe Turin Horse\u003c\/i\u003e (2011) and \u003ci\u003eA Cow's Life\u003c\/i\u003e (2012) attend to animal worlds of sentience and perception, while registering the governing of life through biopolitical regimes. \u003cbr\u003eBringing together Gilles Deleuze's writings on cinema and on animals - while drawing on Jacques Derrida, Jean-Christophe Bailly, Nicole Shukin and others - the book argues that these films question the biopolitical reduction of animal life to forms of capital, opening up realms of virtuality, becoming and alternative political futures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura McMahon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474446388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474446389\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/06\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 0.70d","brand":"Laura McMahon","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088352915711,"sku":"9781474446389","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d01eac6f-c230-41aa-b3c2-5d87bfa79839.jpg?v=1769104363","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/animal-worlds-laura-mcmahon-9781474446389","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
