The book brings out the extent to which mainstream mimetic theories have relied upon the elastic notion of an invisible, idealized observer, a convenient spook whom critics can summon up whenever they desire to "naturalize" style. The book also makes distinctions among types of subjectivity; after this, we will have much more precise ways of tracing the fluctuations among a character's vision, dreams, wishes, and so forth. Branigan also explains the necessity of distinguishing levels of narration.Approaches to Semiotics [AS]Motion picture playsHistory and criticismMotion picturesPhilosophyPoint of view (Literature)Subjectivity in motion picturesMotion picture playsHistory and criticism.Motion picturesPhilosophy.Point of view (Literature)Subjectivity in motion pictures.791.43/01AP 45300rvkBranigan Edward1945-780857MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910810933303321Point of View in the Cinema1731940UNINA
