Identification with a Film Character: Experiencing Someone Else's Story
Heřmánek, Josef ; Vojvodík, Josef (advisor) ; Ritter, Martin (referee)
The main focus of this thesis is the phenomenon commonly described as an identification with a film character. The approach of this thesis is a phenomenological one. I use texts of such authors as Edith Stein, Edmund Husserl, Vivian Sobchack and Christiane Voss. In the introduction to my thesis, I present the problematic nature of the concept and its critique from the perspective of the contemporary film studies. In the following part, I analyse the phenomenon using the concept of empathy from the husserlian phenomenology. I am applying the concept to the cinematographic experience, more precisely I describe the experience of empathy in the aesthetic experience of a film. In order to do so, I use the works of the contemporary authors Vivian Sobchack and Christiane Voss, who describe the film experience using concepts of the cinesthetic subject and the surrogate body and challenge the idealistic notion of a film viewer as the subject of the film experience. Key Words Identification, film, film character, film experience, empathy, cinesthetic subject, surrogate body.

Second chapter's subject is the socialist thinking about literature. There I focused on a character itself, which was one of the most important literary categories at that time.
