Linguocognitive bases for the integration of the poetic text into cinematic discourse

Abstract

The article delves into the intricacies of integrating poetic texts into the discourse of au­thorial cinema. It begins by examining the multifaceted interaction between cinema and poet­ry within contemporary artistic culture, framing author cinematography through the lens of the poetic concept. Intermediality and interdiscursivity are explored as intrinsic properties of cinema, serving as tools for shaping the unique style and aesthetics of filmmakers. Two films, “Stalker” by Andrei Tarkovsky and “Ugly Swans” by Konstantin Lopushansky, are selected as primary sources for analysis due to their continuity and innovative qualities. The research employs a comprehensive methodology, including parameterization of linguistic creativity, corpus annotation, and conceptual analysis of verbal and non-verbal elements that contribute to the films’ poetics. Data processing techniques are then applied to interpret the findings. The study uncovers both similarities and differences in the approaches of the two filmmakers to incorporating poetic material into their works. It concludes that the integration of poetic texts into films serves as a mechanism for eliciting a unique psycho-emotional response from viewers, facilitating their engagement with the filmmaker’s ideological concepts.
