Hīchkāk-i falsafī: Persiska (Farsi) 1400

The Philosophical Hitchcock, a reading of Alfred Hitchcock's 1958 masterpiece, is Vertigo. However, this is a book by Robert B. Pippin, one of our most penetrating and creative philosophers, and so fascinating. Even as Pippin provides detailed readings of every scene in the film and its obsession and fantasy story, it echoes more broadly the modern world depicted in Hitchcock's films. Pippin shows us that Hitchcock's characters repeatedly face problems and dangers rooted in our general failure to understand others—or even ourselves—very well, or to make effective use of what little we do understand. Vertigo, with its imitations, deceptions, and fantasies, embodies a general and shared struggle for mutual understanding in a late modern social world of increasingly complex interdependencies. Pippin argues that by treating this problem through a film, rather than a discursive, narrative, Hitchcock can help us understand the deep and systematic misunderstanding and mutual self-deception to which we are subject in our efforts to develop the knowledge necessary for love. let's see What can be trusted, and committed, and live in such a state of ignorance. This bold and brilliant exploration of one of cinema's most admired works, the philosophical Hitchcock, will lead philosophers and cinephiles to a new understanding of vertigo and its meanings.
