Book Chapter
Of Mice and Mimesis
2014
Overview
These chapter outlines how Disney's full-length feature films developed an alternative mode to graphic narrative called “animistic mimesis.” This mode enabled viewers to feel the special affection of wonder, which means sensing something as alive that one cognitively knows is not. The chapter illustrates, through an analysis of Fantasia, how Disney's use of colour, shadow, sound and gesture enabled the development of animistic mimesis.
