520 |a "In the first book-length study of Tarot cards on the silver screen, Emily E. Auger contextualizes cartomancy - the practice of fortune telling via playing cards - and dives deep into its invention and promulgation in film. After providing an interoduction to divination and cartomancy, Auger offers detailed descriptions and analyses of the roles that cartomancy and Tarot cards play in films. The book features a filmography including nearly two hundred films, detailing their relationships to cartomancy. As Tarot communities continue to grow worldwide, Cartomancy and Tarot in Film will be of increasing interest to scholars of esoteric studies, film, folklore, playing cards, popular culture, and religion, as well as diviners the world over."  |c --Back cover
