Poetics of Cinema is a book series of film theory by Chilean filmmaker Raúl Ruiz (1941-2011) consisting principally of lectures he gave in diverse locations between 1990 and 2009.[1]

Overview

In Poetics of Cinema 1: Miscellanies (1995), Ruiz outlines his rejection of John Howard Lawson's central conflict theory and makes a case for unique, enigmatic boredom in film. In Poetics of Cinema 2 (2006), he addresses the notions of fascination and detachment with respect to the film-image. In the third volume (published posthumously in Spanish in 2013) he takes on Sergei Eisenstein's writings and describes his own work on La Recta Provincia and Nucingen House.
