ARCHITECTONICS OF THE SILENCE IN VERCORS’ NOVEL “THE SILENCE OF THE SEA” by Tatyana A. Pakhareva

“…It was separately considered how the film brings to the “surface” of the text Werner von Ebrennack’s fate motif, implicitly rooted in the story, as an individual embodiment of the fate of German romanticism – from Hegel and the sublime national-cultural mythology of the romantics to Nietzsche and Wagner, and later – German Expressionist cinema – and the death of romanticism, distorted and destroyed by Nazism, in the logic of the “death of the gods.” …”

Cinema as a form of composition by Michele Guerra

“…Following production systems and the ways in which they have changed, in terms of both the technology and the cultural contexts, also involves taking stock of the still considerable differences that exist between approaches to filmmaking in different countries, or indeed the similarities linking highly disparate economic systems (consider, for example, India’s “Bollywood” or Nigeria’s “Nollywood”: two incredibly strong film industries that we are not generally familiar with as they lack global distribution, although they are built very solidly). …”

Dualistic Rethinking of the Christian Myth by Philip Pullman by Olga Yuryevna Antsyferova

“…Onomastic statistical analysis leads the writer to put forward an artistic hypothesis about the possible reduplication of a historical character, thus modelling a counterfactual situation, by means of which not only does he question religious dogma, but also makes each of his readers feel responsible for the shape that the history of the God-man has assumed. Using the methodology of historical-literary, comparative-typological, narratological and intermedial analysis, the author of the article concludes that the dualism of the image of Jesus Christ can be traced to the problematic nature of his anthroponym, and is undoubtedly associated with the state of postmodern knowledge, with the erosion of religious dogmas within intellectual and ethical pluralism, as well as with the influence of Gnosticism and mass culture (films, comics).…”
