To the Problem of the Numinous. The Sacrum Level of A. Tarkovsky’ Films

Abstract

The article examines the numinous as an important factor of the sacral sphere. It treats the basic points concerning the numinous presented in Rudolf Otto’s work “The Sacrum. The Irrational in the Idea of the Divine and its Relation to the Rational”. Special attention is paid to the interpretation of the term “numinous” and the study of significant features of the numinous such as tremendum, majestas, mysterium, fascinans, sanctum. The author seeks to show the importance of the numinous as a phe nomenon in A. Tarkovsky’s art and to examine the specifics of its realisation in various films.
