Publisher's Synopsis
Who are the gods inside of Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained"? What is the archetypal structure of its creator? Its audience? Its critics? "DJANGO UNCHAINED: Inside the Garden of Eden at Night" sends the Archetypal Eye into the Tarantino blockbuster to find the configuration of gods at the core of the film and discovers the hidden location of the Garden of Eden in the psyche, the conflict between the gods and Titans who meet there, the nature of psychological regression through titanism, the place in the psyche where the zombie is born, the fight-or-flight aesthetics of the inner savanna, and a surprise consideration for Apollo watching them all from Parnassus. The result is an archetypal portrait of Quentin Tarantino and the revival of an ancient Greek drama buried deep inside the Hollywood film.
