With his experience as a pioneering avant-garde filmmaker, Jean Epstein uses the universes created by the cinematograph to deconstruct our understanding of how time and space, reality and unreality, continuity and discontinuity, determinism and randomness function both inside and outside the cinema. Time, he says, should be regarded as the first, not the fourth, dimension--and the cinematograph allows us, for the first time, to manipulate it in directions and speeds of our choosing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe theoretical work of Jean Epstein greatly influenced later generations of cinema philosophers, notably Gilles Deleuze and Jacques Ranci re, but the bulk of his work remains unpublished. \u003ci\u003eThe Intelligence of a Machine\u003c\/i\u003e, his first major title published in English, is one of the earliest philosophies of cinema.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean Epstein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1937561186\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781937561185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Univocal Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 111\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.20w x 0.40d","brand":"Jean Epstein","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44173310918911,"sku":"9781937561185","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_820a5c66-1ea8-4910-8939-1b7e8d79d451.jpg?v=1689792118","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-intelligence-of-a-machine-jean-epstein-9781937561185","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
