Video-Literature as an Expression of Full Emotional Experience

Abstract

Culture of the 21^st century exploits human emotions for marketing, educational, social and political purposes, while postmodern aesthetics appreciate the emotional resonance of a work of literature more than its message. Human person becomes a less and less rational subject. Therefore, video-literature plays a therapeutic role because it reveals and disseminates emotions which are ignored or are repressed. Video-poetry, on the other hand, generally takes form of visual and sound animations or filmed recitations of poetry by poets. It addresses current problems and deeply involves one emotionally.
