O Iluminado: estudo sobre o sublime e os elementos da narrativa

Abstract

The Sublime is capable of causing great effects on the body and soul of any man, because of this, this study aims to verify if it is possible to identify such effects from the movie The Shining, which is classified as a horror genre. The Sublime has always been represented by the feeling of fear and astonishment, and in the 18th century, it was associated with painting to exemplify situations where the Sublime could be felt. Our work changes the environment in which this would be evaluated, and we make cinema the backdrop against which we are going to evaluate. Entering this subject of the seventh art, we will bring some concepts of the advancement of photography to cinema, and the screenplay elements involved to tell each narrative. In order to reach some final result, we will evaluate our object of study scene by scene to verify if, in fact, Sublime can also be associated with cinema, through the horror genre.
