From early experimental films to provocative features, Greenaway has deployed strategies associated with structuralist cinema only to challenge or critique the very limits of that cinema, and of film in general. In this collection of essays, scholars from a variety of disciplines explore various postmodern and poststructuralist aspects of Greenaway's films, starting with his early shorts and delving into his feature-length works, inclnding The Draughtman's Contract, The Belly of an Architect, A Zed and Two Noughts, The Cook, the Thief; His Wile and Her Lover, The Baby of Macon, and The Pillow Book. Other artistic productions, including his paintings and installutions, are also discussed. These essays examine the filmmaker's position within British and avunt-garde cinema and his interest in constructing and deconstructing representational systems.
