These films are set in and between the countries of the Maghreb, France and, to a lesser degree, Switzerland, and often adopt a sensual aesthetic that prioritizes embodied knowledge, the interrelation of the senses and the material realities of emotional experience. However, despite the importance of the body in these films, no study to date has taken corporeality as its primary point of concern. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new addition to the Thinking Cinema series interweaves corporeal phenomenology with theological and feminist scholarship on the body from the Maghreb and the Middle East to examine how Maghrebi(-French) people of different genders, ethnicities, sexualities, ages and classes have been represented corporeally in contemporary Maghrebi and French cinemas. Via detailed textual and phenomenological analyses of films such as \u003ci\u003eRed Satin\u003c\/i\u003e (Amari 2002), \u003ci\u003eExiles\u003c\/i\u003e (Gatlif 2004), \u003ci\u003eCouscous\u003c\/i\u003e (Kechiche 2007) and\u003ci\u003e Salvation Army \u003c\/i\u003e(Taïa 2014), Kaya Hayon Davies conveys the pivotal role that corporeality plays in articulating identity and the emotions in these films.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kaya Davies Hayon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501362151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501362156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/20\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Kaya Davies Hayon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47200757711103,"sku":"9781501362156","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bbc204a0-970a-4f95-bf04-a63e6264ed30.jpg?v=1756787776","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sensuous-cinema-kaya-davies-hayon-9781501362156","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
