Introduction As part of a broader inquiry into the cultural and historical formation of language ideologies (e.g., Bauman and Briggs, 2003; Kroskrity, 2000; Schieffelin et al., 1998), linguistic anthropologists have been increasingly concerned with the question of how ideologies and technologies of the voice emerged as defining tools of modernity.

  • Pardes and Film Interpretation Multiple Levels of Cinematic Meaning
    PaRDeS and Film Interpretation Multiple Levels of Cinematic Meaning Vicky Johann Schinkel Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements Of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2012 School of Historical and Philosophical Studies The University of Melbourne ABSTRACT This thesis establishes the traditional Jewish interpretative model PaRDeS as the foundation of a new film interpretation method, and suggests a PaRDeS interpretative process that can be used as a guide by other analysts, critics and scholars. PaRDeS is a sophisticated method of analysis that reflects millennia of Judaic explorations of narrative structures, stories, interpretations and commentaries. Maimonides’ blending of Aristotelian and Jewish philosophy led to the development of different kinds of interpretative frameworks, including PaRDeS. PaRDeS is a map of meaning that articulates Jewish philosophy and reflects a Jewish history of emphasising the importance of interpretation. PaRDeS interpretation encourages dialogues about cinema, and the meaning of films. The PaRDeS method responds to other film analyses in its own interpretative mission to coordinate and integrate multiple levels of meaning. Using PaRDeS in this original way to interpret contemporary films is significant to both Jewish Studies and Film Studies. This thesis extends the investigations of contemporary uses of PaRDeS in Jewish Studies and introduces the method to Film Studies, responding to existing issues of film interpretation in doing so. A multi-level framework of different kinds of meaning differentiates PaRDeS from its contemporary counterparts, and from a tradition of film interpretation that narrows the scope of interpretative interest to ideological perspectives. The originality of the PaRDeS conceptualisation of film meaning, the unique assumptions of the model, and its coordination and synthesis of different interpretative strategies differentiates PaRDeS from contemporary critical perspectives.
