Babette's Feast

Julian (Writer and philosopher, London, UK) Baggini

Omschrijving

On the face of it, Gabriel Axel's Babette's Feast (1989) is a film in which the eyes - and mouths - of religiouszealots are opened to the glories of the sensual world. It is a critique of what Nietzsche called life-denying religion in favour of life-affirming sensuality. But to view the film in that way is to get it profoundly wrong. In his study of the film, Julian Baggini argues that Babette's Feast is not about the battle between religiosity and secularity but a deep examination of how the two can come together. Baggini's analysis focuses on themes of love, pleasure, artisty and grace, to provide a rich philosophical reading of this most sensual of films.
