Philosophy and the Moving image is a collection of articles by Noël Carroll involving many of the ways in which the moving image – including cinema, television, video, and computer generated imagery – can intersect with philosophy. These intersections can include discussions of movies that do philosophy outright, and movies that illustrate philosophical themes as well as discussions various philosophical issues that moving-image practices can provoke. The book shows that movies make contact with many of the established branches of philosophy, including metaphysics, epistemology, philosophical psychology, ethics, political philosophy, and the philosophy of the arts, specifically music and dance. The book also includes essays on the history of the philosophy of motion pictures, discussing the work of Balász, Eisenstein, Cavell, and Danto.
