Framing the question of public sentiment through the lens of rhetorical studies, this book traces the circulation of symbols that craft public feelings in contemporary popular cinema. Analyzing popular twenty-first century films as invitations to a particular way of feeling, the book delves into the way popular sentiments are circulated and intensified. The book examines dystopian films (The Purge, The Cabin in the Woods), science fiction (Snowpiercer), and superhero narratives (the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Joker). Across these varied films, an affective economy that emphasizes grief, betrayal, refusal, and an underlying rage at the seeming hopelessness of contemporary culture is uncovered. These examinations are framed in terms of ongoing political protests ranging from Occupy Wall Street, the Tea Party, Black Lives Matter, and the 6th January 2021 invasion of the US Capitol Building. Kendall R. Phillips is Professor of Communication and Rhetorical Studies at Syracuse University, USA. His publications include Projected Fears: Horror Films and American Culture (2005), Dark Directions: Romero, Craven, Carpenter and the Modern Horror Film (2012) and A Place of Darkness: The Rhetoric of Horror in Early American Cinema (2018). 001439996 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from digital title page (viewed on October 07, 2021). 001439996 650_0 $$aMotion pictures$$zUnited States. 001439996 650_0 $$aGovernment, Resistance to$$xIn motion pictures. 001439996 650_0 $$aPolitics in motion pictures. 001439996 650_6 $$aCinéma$$zÉtats-Unis. 001439996 650_6 $$aRésistance au gouvernement$$xAu cinéma. 001439996 650_6 $$aPolitique au cinéma. 001439996 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001439996 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030741354$$z9783030741358$$w(OCoLC)1243350637 001439996 830_0 $$aRhetoric, politics, and society series. 001439996 852__ $$bebk 001439996 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-74136-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001439996 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1439996$$pGLOBAL_SET 001439996 980__ $$aBIB 001439996 980__ $$aEBOOK 001439996 982__ $$aEbook 001439996 983__ $$aOnline 001439996 994__ $$a92$$bISE
