The anthology Körperästhetiken (body aesthetics) contains articles regarding different aspects of filmic enactments of bodies. Within the framework of a cultural studies perspective, the semantic content of the – not least male of female coded – body images in the discussed movies are surveyed. However, the articles leave unanswered how the audience’s cognitive and emotive processes of reception are structured exactly. A gap that is filled by Kathrin Fahlenbrach’s monography Audiovisuelle Metaphern (audiovisual metaphors). Fahlenbrach creates a theory of cognitive and emotional semantics which assumes that, in a movie experience, affect and meaning cannot be separated but have to be thought of together.
