Summary: | 碩士 === 臺北市立教育大學 === 視覺藝術學系碩士班 === 101 === Andrei Tarkovsky is one of the most famous Russian directors throughout the world. His films concern for the meaning of life and ultimate destiny of mankind.
His works seek for spiritual homeland and revived belief of mankind which has long been lost. This thesis discusses the stylistic characters and Russian religious tradition in his later works (including Nostalgia and The Sacrifice being done after his leaving of Russia.) Andrei Tarkovsky is a prestigious director, however, his films are known for the obscurity of meaning. For better understanding of the meaning and stylistic characters of his films, this thesis attempts to interpret religious ideas of the Russian Orthodox culture through documentary analysis and reveal the redemptive motif of his works. This thesis also discusses Tarkovsky’s cinematic view in his book Sculpting in Time. At last, the researcher attempts to put Tarkovsky’s creative thought with his filmic practice to clarify his specific contribution to contemporary cinematic aesthetics.
