In this illuminating psychoanalysis of our media environment, Luke Hockley probes questions such as why we have genuine emotional responses to film events we know to be fictional, why we are compulsively driven to watch television, and how advertisers use unconscious motifs to persuade viewers.       \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“A beautiful job! Hockley’s is a big screen approach, for he seeks to link Jungian and post-Jungian ideas about film with the sounds and images that flicker across everyone’s everyday experience. In this mixture of the formal and the informal, he performs an act of therapy for Jungian media criticism itself, rooting it (for its own good) in the popular and the ubiquitous. The process brings out aspects of Jung’s work on sexuality and the body that often get overlooked in academic circles.”—Andrew Samuels, Professor of Analytical Psychology, University of Essex  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: 'Cinema as Illusion and Reality' - Page 21 - Luke Hockley  Chapter 2: 'Watching Films: The Affective Power of Cinema' - Page 35 - Luke Hockley  Chapter 3: 'Chinatown: Investigating Affect' - Page 47 - Luke Hockley  Chapter 4: 'A Jungian Approach to Television' - Page 63 - Luke Hockley  Chapter 5: 'Narcissism and the Alchemy of Advertising' - Page 77 - Luke Hockley  Chapter 6: 'Star Trek: Some Jungian Thoughts' - Page 91 - Luke Hockley  Chapter 7: 'Technology as Modern Myth and Magic' - Page 109 - Luke Hockley  Chapter 8: 'Identity and the Internet' - Page 123 - Luke Hockley","brand":"Intellect Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042920431959,"sku":"9781841501710","price":27.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781841501710.jpg?v=1750956224","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/frames-of-mind-a-post-jungian-look-at-film-television-and-technology-9781841501710","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
