Imaginary in film: viewer's perception of the film
Remešová, Iveta ; Řehořová, Irena (advisor) ; Borecký, Felix (referee)
This thesis deals with the film in the psycho-semiotics' meaning. We focus on the viewer's perception of the film and we emphasize the concept of imaginary that is to be explained as mere image (imago) in comparison with the reality of actual gestures and movements and such image is not usually realized by the viewer. The aim of the thesis is to analyze the film from the perspective of the viewer's perception of the film and to apply acquired knowledge to the reception of Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2 film. We want to find out whether and under what conditions the viewer becomes aware of the imaginary that is ubiquitous in the film. We're looking for viewer's semiotic and cognitive attitudes to the film art. We also try to describe the influence of elements, which have some effects on the viewer during watching a movie, such as emotions, movement, connotative meanings in the film or positive and negative characters etc.

We focus on a critical interpretation of two alternative approaches which Dufrenne considers in his work. The first approach is based on a noetic perspective, the other on an ontological one. In both cases, Dufrenne claims that imagination is a productive, effecting activity which in a formative manner participates in knowledge of a priori truths regarding human being in the world. Such knowledge is most fully accomplished in the aesthetic experience. Only there a man opens oneself to the external world while maintaining with it a relation of primordial corporeity, which they both - i.e., both humans and the world - share. Imagination and its correlate, the imaginary, in an aesthetic experience stimulate each other and enable a reverberation of the most fundamental possibilities of human being in the world. It is imagination and the imaginary which enable a man to penetrate the superficial empirical level and reach the deep level of the a priori. On the level of the a priori, a man can experience the original corporeal unity which is of the same kind...
