Martine Beugnet
Martine Beugnet is a French
film theorist, and a Professor in Visual Studies at the
Paris Diderot University. She has written primarily on
corporeality and
sensation in
avant-garde and
narrative cinema, and has had her work published in several film journals. She wrote her PhD thesis at the
University of Edinburgh in 1999, on themes of
sexuality and bodies in recent
French cinema, citing filmmakers such as
Claire Denis,
Bertrand Blier,
Jean-Jacques Beineix,
Laetitia Masson, and
Leos Carax. She later wrote an entire
monograph on the work of Claire Denis, where she invoked the
film theory of French philosopher
Gilles Deleuze. In 2005, she published a book on cinematic treatments of
Marcel Proust, written in collaboration with Marion Schmid. Two years later, she wrote a book titled ''Cinema and Sensation'', where she further explored themes she had written about in her PhD thesis, again invoking Deleuze.
