FMST 2418 - CINEMA AND PSYCHE

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
From the earliest years of film theory, writers have likened the discourse of cinema to the workings of the human mind. In 1916, for instance, Hugo Munsterberg (in "the photoplay") drew parallels between film language and recollection, attention, and anticipation. This course (through readings and film screenings) will pursue such comparisons between cinema and the mind, investigating such topics as dream, memory, fantasy, nostalgia, perception, cognition, affect, etc.
