Reviews
"Reading Jean Painlevé's archive, James Leo Cahill excavates an urgent nonhuman ethics made possible through film. Each chapter of this lively, meticulously researched, and beautifully written book reveals a complex vision of animals-for-themselves and animals as figures for a fraught political culture. The 'cinematic nature' of Painlevé's world, as theorized by Cahill, unsettles any presumed separateness of human- and animal-being, even as it offers a vision of animal existence that is beyond human existence altogether."--Jennifer Fay, author of Inhospitable World: Cinema in the Time of the Anthropocene " A remarkable study of Jean Painlevé's cinematic attention to the marvels of animal life, James Leo Cahill's study elegantly resolves the contradictions between intellectual biography and non-anthropocentric modes of inquiry. At once a focused critical biography and a wide-ranging study of organic systems thinking, Zoological Surrealism is alive with the intellectual ferment of the French 1930s. It is an essential text for any reader invested in the development of systems thinking, as well as in the history of experimental film, art, science, and thought."--Jonathan P. Eburne, author of Outsider Theory: Intellectual Histories of Unorthodox Ideas

Synopsis
ZoologicalSurrealism draws from French scientific and nature filmmaker Jean Painlevé's early oeuvreto rethink the entangled histories of cinema, Surrealism, and scientificresearch in interwar France. Delving deeply into Painlevé's archive, James LeoCahill develops an account of "cinema's Copernican vocation" -- how it was used toforge new scientific discoveries while also displacing and critiquinganthropocentric viewpoints., An archive-based, in-depth analysis of the surreal nature and science movies of the pioneering French filmmaker Jean Painlev Before Jacques-Yves Cousteau, there was Jean Painlev , a pioneering French scientific and nature filmmaker with a Surrealist's eye. Creator of more than two hundred films, his studies of strange animal worlds doubled as critical reimaginations of humanity. With an unerring eye for the uncanny and unexpected, Painlev and his assistant Genevi ve Hamon captured oneiric octopuses, metamorphic crustaceans, erotic seahorses, mythic vampire bats, and insatiable predatory insects. Zoological Surrealism draws from Painlev 's early oeuvre to rethink the entangled histories of cinema, Surrealism, and scientific research in interwar France. Delving deeply into Painlev 's archive, James Leo Cahill develops an account of "cinema's Copernican vocation"--how it was used to forge new scientific discoveries while also displacing and critiquing anthropocentric viewpoints. From Painlev 's engagements with Sergei Eisenstein, Georges Franju, and competing Surrealists to the historiographical dimensions of Jean Vigo's concept of social cinema, Zoological Surrealism taps never-before-examined sources to offer a completely original perspective on a cutting-edge filmmaker. The first extensive English-language study of Painlev 's early films and their contexts, it adds important new insight to our understanding of film while also contributing to contemporary investigations of the increasingly surreal landscapes of climate change and ecological emergency., An archive-based, in-depth analysis of the surreal nature and science movies of the pioneering French filmmaker Jean Painlevé Before Jacques-Yves Cousteau, there was Jean Painlevé, a pioneering French scientific and nature filmmaker with a Surrealist's eye.
