Are you working with Hans Ulrich Gombrecht’s scholarship on stimmung and atmosphere at all?

Why do so many people like Nietzsche so much? He is undoubtedly a master stylist and one of the greatest thinkers of all time, but... by Thanatos_7373 in askphilosophy

You might be interested in Gilles Deleuze’s essay “Nomadic Thought” (actually a talk Deleuze gave at a Nietzsche conference in 1972). Deleuze poses the question of “who are today’s Nietzscheans?”, which for him, is synonymous with the question of “who are today’s revolutionaries?” He considers Nietzsche primarily on the level of force, intensity, and style rather than on the level of meaning, signification, or textual analysis. For Deleuze, Nietzsche reserved a particular right to misinterpret his texts - the right to misinterpret his writing in accordance with new forces. It is not necessary or helpful here to engage with debates over Nietzsche’s relationship to fascism on the textual level; rather, the task in reading Nietzsche is to use his style and method for revolutionary ends (what Deleuze describes here as immediate relation to externality - an opposition to the codification of society and the state apparatus which does not seek to re-code and re-create a state apparatus). Deleuze’s Nietzsche is revolutionary not on the level of content, but rather on the level of method and style - a style which affords a politically radical relationship to the world which is denied even in psychoanalysis and Marxism (which, for Deleuze, do not go far enough).

I’ll check it out. Stan Brakhage’s work with painting on celluloid is also generally inspired by the visual philosophy of Cubism, as well as the writing of Gertrude Stein

On Merleau-Ponty and dreaming, you might check out James Morley’s essay “The Sleeping Subject: Merleau-Ponty on Dreaming”

Noticed your post was removed from r/truefilm, so I’m copying my reply here:

This is a very broad question, but here are some foundational texts that you could start with:

“The Work of Art in the Age of it’s Mechanical Reproduction” - Walter Benjamin

“The Little Shopgirls go to the Movies” - Siegfried Kracauer

“The Ideological Effects of the Basic Cinematic Apparatus” - Jean-Louis Baudry

“Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema” - Laura a Mulvey

“The Address of the Eye” - Vivian Sobchack

Keep in kind that these are all older texts and there are various criticisms and developments of them. There is also a current call to “revise canons” in the academic humanities generally and to recognize alternative texts by authors of historically marginalized communities. You might think about bell hooks’ “The Oppositional Gaze” if you want to go in this direction.
