Cin-Imago Dei: Images of Soul in Contemporary Film
December 5, 1998 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm PST
What is the Soul? Where is the Soul? How do you discover Soul? Or “make” Soul? Is it possible to lose the Soul? Does the Soul have any special relationship with the body or the earth?
These perceptual theological questions will be explored through the lens of contemporary cinema and Jungian psychology. If cinema is the most attended modern Synagogue/Mosque/Cathedral-of-Presence and depth psychology its contemporary therapeut and liturgist, then this discussion is long overdue. This seminar proposes no solutions to these questions but promises a lively exploration of them through the multitudinous images of the soul in modern film.
