Reviewing Orpheus
The Orphic cinema of Jean Cocteau in relationship to his theatrical, autobiographic, literary, and poetic work is examined in this book in the context of a critically postmodern problematic. Essays are addressed to the general reader and student who both seek a deeper acquaintance with CocteauOs cinematography and art, and to the specialist who is interested in new approaches to the study and reevaluation of CocteauOs legacy.
