This thesis proposes an interdisciplinary approach that aims to examine how one particular strand of embodiment within cognitive science, namely the cognitive unconscious dimension, can be integrated within cognitive film studies. Drawing on the theoretical framework of cognitive linguistics, in particular Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT) as advocated by Lakoff and Johnson and their followers, my research aims to show how there could be a connection between on the one hand, human mechanisms of thought that are grounded in bodily patterns of sensory-motor experience and activity (or "image schemas" as Lakoff and Johnson have called them), and, on the other hand, the construal of higher meaning in cinema (e.g., time, cognition, morality, etc.).

520 $a This thesis proposes an interdisciplinary approach that aims to examine how one particular strand of embodiment within cognitive science, namely the cognitive unconscious dimension, can be integrated within cognitive film studies. Drawing on the theoretical framework of cognitive linguistics, in particular Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT) as advocated by Lakoff and Johnson and their followers, my research aims to show how there could be a connection between on the one hand, human mechanisms of thought that are grounded in bodily patterns of sensory-motor experience and activity (or "image schemas" as Lakoff and Johnson have called them), and, on the other hand, the construal of higher meaning in cinema (e.g., time, cognition, morality, etc.).
520 $a The structure of my project is twofold. In the first section, I describe the methodology and discuss some of the theoretical implications of applying CMT to cinema. In the second section, I discuss its application to three distinctive, but interrelating case-studies of abstract meaning. Firstly, I will demonstrate how the abstract perceptual states of characters can be represented cinematically via audiovisual expressions of metaphors related to our knowledge of touching and physical manipulation. Secondly, I will show how the cinematic and metaphorical model of characters' perception, as outlined in the previous part, in turn, can be further mapped onto the characters' temporal experience. Thirdly, I will continue this line of thought by considering the implications of extending perception to the study of moral understanding in film. More specifically, I will develop a perceptual model of embodied ethics in which the viewer's moral (dis)approval of a character is facilitated by the perception of the character.
