Abstract

The psychological meanings of "Musubi" (connecting and generating) among distant phenomena were analyzed in image narratives of Tarkovsky's film "Mirror". In this film selves and others, such as a mother and a wife and a father and a son, had the similar figures that could transfer each other. The concepts of similarity, transfer and repetition in narratives were discussed from following 4 points: 1) the relationship of selves and others, 2) narrative selves, 3) comparison with the concept of Bakhtin's "dialogue", and 4) repeating time.
