"Referentiality and the Films of Woody Allen is a scholarly collection that provides expansive exploration of the auteur's use of intertexuality, referentiality, and fusion of media forms. Its scope is framed by Allen's intermedial phase beginning in 1983 with Zelig and his most recent film. While many chapters in the volume deal with texts, several delve into Allen's process of referentiality, his accessing non-textual works, material objects, and abstract concepts in the formation of his cinematic works. These objects and concepts include a vast array of phenomena, such as sexual orientation, historical events, time and space, geographic location, architecture, religion, philosophy, visual images, music, magic and other performance art. Characterized by international, interdisciplinary perspectives, this collection elucidates points of departure within as well as outside of Allen's own oeuvre to trace both artistic lineages and idiosyncratic creations in Allen's overall filmic work.
