Global Cinema Studies in Landscape Allegory explores the narrative and stylistic approaches to imbuing natural settings in audiovisual media with a psychological dimension or, in other words, configuring a ‘;landscape’ to function beyond its typical role as a backdrop and the cultural contexts for this aesthetic impulse. Contributors argue that while audiovisual allegory can be understood as inherently avant-garde, certain kinds of stories and the ways in which they are presented can be categorized as a ‘;landscape allegory.’ Focusing on the idea of a ‘;landscape’ in the most concrete and literal form, contributions drawing from a global spectrum of cultural contexts work toward establishing a fuller and more culturally diverse understanding of landscape allegory in cinema.
