LOSADA GARCIA, Marcia. Chronicle of a visioning. Myth and ekphrasis in Portrait de la jeune fille en feu. UH [online]. 2023, n.296  Epub 01-Abr-2023. ISSN 0253-9276.

This article is part of an extensive tradition of research that decodes the interrelations between the filmic text and the written text. Thus, the proposal to read contemporary cinema from the codes of classical culture sheds light on the strategies that subjects use to renew classical culture. The film, in its rank of nuclear text, exploits the ekphrasis in order to make the spectator go for more. This is done through the mobilization of illocutive functives of the meaning of basic operations of acceptance-rejection, legitimization, intellectual analysis-synthesis, affective, hierarchical, sensory. All of them pillars of a more complex perceptual thinking in a minimalist structure.
