There are very few book series that fully keep to what they promised, as the 'Key Debates' does. An incredible effort in critically covering wide regions of our field - with their traditional assets and their sudden innovations. Visual storytelling poses puzzling questions: the seventh volume of the series tries to answer them. - Francesco Casetti, Yale University[-][-] Rather than explaining our previous accounts of storytelling and story-viewing, this exciting collection opens up the field to important new questions about complex, large, and transmedia narratives. It is a valuable contribution to research on how and why we engage with stories. - Janet Staiger, University of Texas[-][-] An indispensable collection of essays exploring the complexities of storytelling in today's multi-faceted media environment. This volume constitutes another important contribution to ongoing debates in Film and Media Studies provided by a remarkable book series. - Frank Kessler, Utrecht University

This new addition to the series The Key Debates is a most welcome examination of the vexed question of cinema's place in the so-called post era (post-medium, postcinema, post-art). Post-cinema: Cinema in the Post-art Era gathers together an impressive list of contributors, theorists as well as artists and filmmakers, whose interventions take us from discourses and practices inspired by the death of the cinema, to affirmations of its resilience, and reflections on its metamorphosis. The result is a book packed with new insights that surfs across the field of film, art, and media studies to offer brilliant reformulations of what cinema becomes. - Martine Beugnet, Professor in Visual Studies at the Paris Diderot University
