"Cinesexuality" explores the queerness of cinema spectatorship, arguing that cinema spectatorship represents a unique encounter of desire, pleasure and perversion beyond dialectics of subject/object and image/meaning; an extraordinary 'cinesexual' relationship, that encompasses each event of cinema spectatorship beyond gender, hetero- or homosexuality, encouraging all spectators to challenge traditional notions of what elicits pleasure and constitutes desiring subjectivity.Through a variety of cinematic examples, including abstract film, extreme films and films which offer examples of perverse sexuality and corporeal reconfiguration, "Cinesexuality" encourages a radical shift to spectatorship as itself inherently queer beyond what is watched and who watches. Film as its own form of philosophy invokes spectatorship thought as an ethics of desire. Original, exciting and theoretically sophisticated - focusing on Continental Philosophy, particularly Deleuze, Guattari, Blanchot, Foucault, Lyotard, Irigaray and Serres - the book will be of interest to scholars and students of queer and feminist studies, film and cultural studies, media and communication, post-structural theory and contemporary philosophical thought.
