The Face on the Screen: Death, Recognition & Spectatorship
Therese Davis
This work aims to rethink the facial close-up in terms other than those associated with the humanist view of the face as "mirror of the soul". It proposes a dialectical reversal or about-face. It provides detailed studies of media spectacles of faces becoming unrecognizable.
