理性蒙太奇

答案

参考答案:

“理性蒙太奇”(也称“理性电影”),是爱森斯坦在20年代末期提出来的。他主张在电影中通过画面内部的造型安排,使观众将一定的视觉形象变成一种理性的认识。如:《战舰波将金号》的3个石狮子和《十月》中亚历山大三世的雕像从基位上倒落下来。象征着沙皇专制的覆灭;而当临时政府走上沙皇制度的老路时,亚历山大三世的雕像又重新竖立回基位上以表现反动势力的反扑等,都是作为“理性蒙太奇”的运用的典型例子。镜头在这里成为某种符号或象形文字,而当它们组合起来时便产生某种概念,从而代替艺术形象。爱森斯坦主张,电影艺术的目的不在于形象地表现现实,而在于表现概念。30年代末期,爱森斯坦否定了自己的这类观点。

What is a six-letter word that immediately comes to mind when you need some information on the Internet? You probably thought of Google. But Google wasn’t always the name of the famous search engine. In fact, the original name was BackRub!

BackRub was the name two graduate students gave to the new search engine they developed in 1996. They called it BackRub because the engine used backlinks to measure the popularity of Web sites. Later, they wanted a better name — a name that suggests huge quantities of data. They thought of the word googol. (A googol is a number followed by 100 zeros.) When they checked the Internet registry of names to see if googol was already taken, one of the students misspelled the word by mistake, and that’s how Google was born.

Google is just one example of a name change in the business world. Many other companies have decided to change their names or the names of their products. Here are some more examples:

Jerry Yang and David Filo, two young computer specialists, developed a guide to Internet content in 1994. They called it “Jerry and David’s Guide to World Wide Web.” But they soon realized that this wasn’t a very catchy name, so they searched through a dictionary and found a better one: “Yahoo.”

Sometimes companies change their names because of the popularity of one of their products. In 1962, a young runner named Phil Knight started a company called Blue Ribbon Sports. In 1971, Knight decided to design and manufacture his own brand of shoes. He named the shoes after the Greek goddess of victory — Nike. Nike shoes became so well known that Knight changed the name of the whole company to Nike.
