Lars von Trier's Women / edited by Rex Butler and David Denny New York: Bloomsbury Academic, 2018. Available at ProQuest (RMIT login required)
Call No: 81TRI LARAuthor: Butler, Rex (ed.) ; Denny, David (ed.) Edition: paperback editionSource: USPlace: New YorkPublisher: Bloomsbury AcademicPubDate: 2018PhysDes: vi, 264 pages ; 24 cmSubject: WOMEN AND THE CINEMA ; WOMEN IN FILMS ; VON TRIER, LARS ; DANCER IN THE DARK (FR/DK/SW, Lars von Trier, 2000) ; DOGVILLE (DK, Lars Von Trier, 2002) ; ANTICHRIST (DK, Lars von Trier, 2009) ; MELANCHOLIA (DK/SW/FR/G, Lars von Trier, 2011) ; NYMPHOMANIAC [VOL. I AND VOL. II] (DK/G/BE/UK/FR, Lars von Trier, 2013) Summary: "The Danish director Lars von Trier is undoubtedly one of the world's most important and controversial filmmakers, and arguably so because of the depiction of women in his films. He has been criticized for subjecting his female characters to unacceptable levels of violence or reducing them to masochistic self-abnegation (Bess in Breaking the Waves, "She" in Antichrist and Joe in Nymphomaniac). At other times, it is the women in his films who are dominant or break out in violence, such as in his adaptation of Euripides' Medea, the conclusion of Dogville and perhaps throughout Nymphomaniac. Lars von Trier's Women confronts these dichotomies head on. Editors Rex Butler and David Denny do not take a position either for or against von Trier, but rather considers how both attitudes fall short of the real difficulty of his films, which may simply not conform to any kind of feminist or indeed anti-feminist politics as they are currently configured. Using Lacanian psychoanalysis and the work of prior scholars on the films, Lars von Trier's Women reveals hidden resources for a renewed "feminist" politics and social practice.
