Script-writing as Art Practice; The Unmade Film 'St Paul' by Pier Paolo Pasolini as the Heart of a New Trilogy.

我的跨学科研究包括编剧和哲学分析。我认为Pier Paolo Pasolini的《圣保罗》(1977)的未拍摄剧本是将《根据马太福音》(1964)和《所多玛的120天》(1975)联系在一起的概念枢纽，构成了Pasolini作品中以前未被发现的三部曲，从而是对知识的原创贡献。我会争辩说，它们在主题上是通过叙事、救世主时间、凯罗斯、启示录和末世论的概念联系在一起的，圣保罗的形象在哲学上和神学上是这种理解的核心。乔治·阿甘本最近的哲学著作将为这项研究提供主要的概念基础，并得到沃尔特·本雅明和雅各布·陶布斯的阅读进一步支持，这两人都是理解阿甘本作品的核心。一部关于波林激进的凯罗斯概念及其对帕索里尼电影的影响的理论文本将与一部基于文本的原创作品合作，这部作品改编自帕索里尼为《圣保罗》改编的剧本。这部以传统电影剧本的形式写成的新作品将利用阿甘本哲学固有的概念和当前的艺术写作形式。它是在历史上定义的波林末世和启示录的概念内，这篇文章将被发展。运用帕索里尼和阿甘本思想中固有的翻译和改编方法，这部以实践为基础的博士电影剧本将世界末日的时间置于当代背景中。博士学位以实践为基础的要素将致力于准确描述并富有想象力地描述具有历史先例的当代情况。那就是一个社会开始考虑末世论的时刻，以及离开它的必要性。

My interdisciplinary research spans scriptwriting and philosophical analysis. I propose that the un-filmed script for 'St Paul' (1977) by Pier Paolo Pasolini is the conceptual hinge that links together 'The Gospel According to Matthew' (1964) and 'Salo, or 120 Days of Sodom' (1975), constituting a previously undiscovered trilogy in Pasolini's work, thereby an original contribution to knowledge. I will argue they are thematically linked by notions of narrative, messianic time, kairos, apocalypse and eschatology, with the figure of St Paul philosophically and theologically central to this understanding. The recent philosophic work of Giorgio Agamben will provide the primary conceptual underpinnings to the research, further supported by readings of Walter Benjamin and Jacob Taubes who are both central to an understanding of Agamben's work. A theoretical text on the radical Pauline notion of kairos and its implications for Pasolini's cinema will be partnered with an original text-based work, an adaptation of Pasolini's script for 'St Paul'. Written in the form of a traditional film script this new work will utilise concepts inherent to Agamben's philosophy and current forms of art writing. It is within the historically defined notion of Pauline eschaton and apocalypse that this piece of writing will be developed. Working with methods of translation and adaptation inherent to Pasolini's and Agamben's thought, the practice-based film script of the PhD situates apocalyptical time within a contemporary context. The practice-based elements of the PhD will work to describe accurately and then imaginatively a contemporary situation with historical precedent. That of a society starting to consider an eschatological moment, and the necessity to move away from it.
