Riassunto

These 14 essays were presented at the Fourth Eaton Conference, which convened to create a broad dialogue concern­ing the importance of science fiction and fantasy in contemporary film. Another goal was to seek in the history and essen­tial nature of cinema the roots of the in­creasing popularity of science fiction and fantasy.

Using very different methods and widely diverse ideas of what fantasy is and where its center exists, these schol­ars and critics cover the entire span of western dramafrom Méliès and Lang to recent films such as E.T., the Extra­-Terrestrial and Raiders of the Lost Ark.
