Empathic Encounters: Negotiating Identity In 9/11 Fiction And Translation, Kirsty A. Hemsworth 2015 University of Sheffield

Empathic Encounters: Negotiating Identity In 9/11 Fiction And Translation, Kirsty A. Hemsworth

“Robert Zemekis’ Contact As A Late Twentieth-Century Paradiso.”, Gregory M. Sadlek 2015 Cleveland State University

“Robert Zemekis’ Contact As A Late Twentieth-Century Paradiso.”, Gregory M. Sadlek

Gregory M Sadlek

The film Contact employs a plot and literary motifs that are in many ways parallel to those in Dante's Paradiso.

The text and image is a part of a larger body of work that emerged from a trip to Havana in December 2013 and is still in the process of unfolding through additional visual forms. The prose and photographs question the im/possibility of stasis and taxonomical containment in an ecological continuum where the processes of death and life and interdependent and imperceptibly entangled.
