In conjunction with a study of Erwin Panofsky's 1934/47 essay "Style and Medium in the Motion Pictures" --the single most reprinted of all of his works (!)-- I am trying to map the resonance of this text within the film theoretical literature. Specifically, I would like to account for the curious discrepancy between its virtually canonical status (anthologized in Talbot, Mast & Cohen, etc) and the fact that it seems to have provoked surprisingly little in the way of substantive critical/theoretical response. Besides the discussions in Cavell's The World Viewed, in Wollen's Signs and Meaning in the Cinema, and in Keith Cohen's Film and Fiction, can anyone suggest any further work which responds to Panofsky in however passing a fashion? Any suggestions/comments would be much appreciated. Tom Levin (Princeton University / Collegium Budapest) [log in to unmask]
