Abstract

In this paper we explore the relationships among Tarantino´s movies, violence and ideology from a historic-critic standpoint. We confront several approaches to the concept of ideology, particularly those from Althusser, Williams and Therborn to think Tarantino´s movies and the debate on violence in a 30 years span. We offer, too, a reading proposal on that relationship from the concepts of emergency, residuality and dominance (Williams) suffered by the ideologies in time and how they interact each other concerning cinema.

This article is, for the time being, only available in Spanish: Tarantino y la sutil violencia de la ideología
