Figuren begegnen in Filmen und Comics
ISBN: 9783111086958 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 2023 / 471 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Wie begegnen wir Figuren in Filmen und Comics? Für Zuschauende und Lesende sind sie intuitiv zugänglich, nicht aber für die Analyse. Die vorliegende Studie grenzt sich von narratologisch und kognitionstheoretisch geprägten Theorien und Analysemethoden ab, die Figuren als fertige Subjekte denken, welche in ein mediales Gewand gekleidet den Zuschauenden und Lesenden gegenübertreten. Stattdessen werden Film-Sehen und Comic-Lesen als dynamische, von Subjektivität durchzogene Situationen untersucht. Konzipiert als Film- beziehungsweise Comic-Verhalten, bilden diese subjektivierten... Wie begegnen wir Figuren in Filmen und Comics?
