Reviews

'This welcome and original study provides a stimulating investigation into the imagination and how the processes of imagining (dreams, memories, nightmares and visions) are manifested in Bergman's films. Williams' unique insight into the confluences and discrepancies between philosophy and psychoanalytic theory paves the way for an enlightening exploration of Bergman's films.' - Laura Hubner, University of Winchester, UK, author of The Films of Ingmar Bergman: Illusions of Light and Darkness (Palgrave Macmillan, 2007)
