John David Rhodes has published widely on European and American cinema and maintains a special interest in Italian cinema. He is interested in putting cinema into conversation with other artistic, cultural, and material forms. The relationship between the cinema and the built environment has been a consistent theme across his work. Most recently he has published . This book proposes a critique of private property and cinema spectatorship through a consideration of particular architectural styles of dwelling and their appearance in cinema. The book was hailed in for the way in which it 鈥榩oints cinema studies in new directions that should inspire scholarship, teaching, and debate about space, modernity, and Hollywood history鈥�.
His first book,听, interprets Pasolini's cinema and poetry as deeply felt political responses to Rome's enormous expansion in the postwar period. He also maintains an interest in avant garde cinema, one product of which is a recent book on Maya Deren's听, for the BFI's Film Classics series. He has co-edited three volumes of essays:听听(with Brian Price);听听(with Elena Gorfinkel); and听听(with Laura Rascaroli). He is a founding co-editor of听, an online journal primarily dedicated to theoretical and philosophical approaches to media.
Materially underway are two further books: 鈥楧isembowelled Vision鈥�, a book on Roman urban modernity and cinema, and 鈥楤elaboured鈥�, a study of the relationship between style and labour, situated at the intersection of film history, aesthetic theory, and the critique of political economy.听A third, more experimental project, 鈥楴otes for a Book on Pier Paolo Pasolini鈥�, is also in the works.
Professor Rhodes offers supervision across a range of topics in Italian, European, American, and international cinema; aesthetic theory; queer theory; the history and theory of modernism in film, literature and the other arts; cinema and the built environment, as well as in other (often interdisciplinary) topics and areas.
Professor Rhodes听welcomes inquiries from potential MPhil and PhD students with research interests relevant to his听interests.
