(1998) Alfred Schutz's "sociological aspect of literature", Dordrecht, Springer.
This chapter presents an analysis of the "reality depicted within the film, " the " ilmic reality, " in terms of Alfred Schutz's delineation of the features of multiple realities.A film by Woody Allen, The Purple Rose of Cairo, is selected for analysis because the film depicts characters as moving from the screen into the world of everyday life thereby disrupting both realities. Features of th "filmic reality" can be discerned by noting what assumptions and presuppositions are disrupted as well as by comparing this realiy with Schutz's analysis of other "finite provinces of meaning."
