PHILOSOPHICAL AVATARS OF THE IMAGE THROUGH CINEMA

This article explores two philosophical pathways for approaching images that were initiated in the last century. The first, which we call metaphysics, was opened up by Bergson and developed by Deleuze. The second, which we classify as phenomenological, was initiated by Sartre and completed by Merleau-Ponty. The central position that the image occupies in these theories makes it possible to develop a new ontology in which cinema plays a main role and which solves the problems of dualism.
