Sentir el sentido del filme: la dimensión corporal de la composición visual en la teoría de Serguéi M. Eisenstein

Abstract

Establishing attentional trajectories through their visual compositions, films can move their viewers, eliciting certain kinesthetic experiences in their bodies. But few authors have thought about it until now. This text tries to rescue the reflections of Sergei M. Eisenstein on this expressive possibility of the cinematographic medium. Reflections rarely mentioned as a seminal part of his theoretical legacy, given their dispersion throughout his writings, but which are revealing to understand an aesthetic dimension of cinematographic art that starts to penetrate the research agenda of cognitive and phenomenological film theorists.
