Introduces the concept of the intensive-image" to develop a deeper understanding of the part played by intensity in the history of the cinematic imageThe book develops the original concept of the intensive-image in order to open up a new and important understanding of the part played by intensity in the history of the cinematic imageEscobar explore the significance of the notion of intensity in Deleuze's philosophy and the ways it can be used to think about cinematic intensity as suchThe focus on the intensive-image inspires readers to reconsider Deleuze's classification of cinema into two periods and two main types of imagesThe general argument is that the intensive-image breaks up Deleuze's divide between classical and modern periods as well as linking these two periods to contemporary cinema through its own unique propertiesThis book argues that the intensive-image constitutes an important cinematic category that prompts a rethinking of Deleuze's taxonomy of images in his Cinema 1: The Movement-Image and Cinema 2: The Time-Image. Escobar explores the proposition that the notion of intensity has the potential to change the way in which we think about Deleuze's classification of films as signifying two separate periods, the classical period of the movement-image and the modern period of the time-image, thereby bringing them together and overcoming the separation that the philosopher creates. This book also explores the ways in which the intensive-image varies and differentiates itself from other images and the role it plays in contemporary cinema."
