The twelve essays in A Critical Companion to Mel Gibson offer various interpretations of Mel Gibson's work, treating this prolific but controversial figure not only as a filmmaker but as a historian, religious thinker, and social philosopher. From The Man Without a Face and Braveheart to The Passion of the Christ, Apocalypto, and Hacksaw Ridge, this interdisciplinary collection mines Gibson's life and oeuvre for insight into existential problems, Aristotelian virtues, the politics of film, interreligious dialogue, adaptation issues, and much more.
Adam Barkman is professor of philosophy at Redeemer University. Antonio Sanna is teaching assistant at the University of Sassari.
