Heidegger of the Cinema in the Heideggerian Optics
Abstract
In her book Ontologia i estetyka filmowych obrazów Wernera Herzoga [Ontology and Aesthetics of Werner Herzog’s Film Images] (2014) Joanna Sarbiewska makes use of the three research strategies. Firstly, she explores the works of this German director using a romantic-expressionist key, and de- spite its being also used by many other researchers of Herzog’s output, Sarbiewska’s analyses conducted from this perspective contain many original ideas. Secondly, she perceives the artist’s achievements in the spirit of the deep realism or the essential realism, following somehow in the footsteps of Herzog’s so-called Minnesota Declaration. Thirdly, Sarbiewska places Herzog’s films in a set of references to the trends of contemporary philosophy, and those parts of her book belong to the most innovative ones. In search of an appropriate tool to conduct research of Herzog’s output, Martin Heidegger’s thought, with which Herzog’s achievements are sometimes compared, is of special importance to Sarbiewska.
