Cinematic Corpographies

Více o knize

This analysis explores the Hollywood war film genre by emphasizing a somatic experience rather than solely focusing on visual elements. It introduces the concept of "corpography," developed by Derek Gregory, highlighting how the soldier's body remaps landscapes in war cinema. This framework connects established theories of cartographic narration with (neo)phenomenological experiences, suggesting that spectators engage their bodies to grasp the mediated experience of war. By reframing cinematic codes through expressive movement and genre memory, it challenges traditional genre classifications.
