Argument
Deamer reconstructs the genesis of cinematic signs through cineosis, placing taxonomy, syntheses of time, and film cases on one research map. It works best as an intermediary that repeatedly returns the reader to the primary text.
Core question
How do the many images and signs of the two Cinema books form a traceable and comparable taxonomy?
Argument structure
Three introductions explain the levels of image taxonomy and distinctions among signs from different directions. Chapters and film examples from the Cinema books provide the specific contexts of those signs, bringing taxonomic relations into contact with cinematic form.
