Zusammenfassung:Francesco Casetti's Lumière Galaxy is the most progressive and fertile of a spate of books that take up the status of cinema in the age of the digital. While many books and articles toll the death knell of cinema, Casetti looks for ways in which cinema, an impulse and function more than a technology, survives and expands under new conditions, just as it always has. Parrying positions staked out by André Gaudreault, Philippe Marion, D. N. Rodowick, Jaques Aumont, Raymond Bellour, Philippe Dubois, Laura Mulvey, and others, Casetti remains optimistic in the face of the new. If the display has replaced the screen, as he proclaims, can the "experience" of cinema still be available, even in new forms?
