A Critical Companion to Jane Campion offers a thorough and detailed study of the works of Jane Campion. This edited volume seeks a modern approach by blurring the frontiers between film and television, film theater releases, and platforms, and treats the entirety of Campion's her body of work as a meaningful whole. The chapters explore recurring themes and connections across Campion’s oeuvre, including her complex feminine characters, exploration of New Zealand landscapes, love for literature, constant dialogue between media, and the influence of the Gothic. Contributors draw on a variety of scholarly approaches, methodologies, and perspectives to provide innovative readings of Campion’s work that are sure to spark new discussions.
Elsa Colombani is an independent scholar and film critic. Eurydice Da Silva is professor of screenwriting at Sorbonne Nouvelle University.
