Gente como nosotros: la corriente emocional transmitida en la pantalla a través de las series británicas de placas de linterna mágica denominadas ‘Life Models’, 1880-1910
Resumen La edad de oro de la linterna mágica, sobre todo en términos de popularidad, se desarrolló durante las primeras décadas del siglo XIX, tanto en el Reino Unido como en gran parte de Europa y Estados Unidos. Este artículo mantiene que una de las principales razones de su éxito en este período fue que a menudo las funciones de linterna mágica se representaban y eran presentadas por individuos similares a los que se encontraban entre el público de sus espectáculos. Centrándose en los conjuntos de series de placas para linterna mágica denominadas ‘Life Model’, que también alcanzaron su máximo esplendor en esta época, el artículo se fundamenta en dos grandes bases de datos con el objetivo de examinar los aspectos prácticos del uso de las placas en la pantalla y sus condiciones de representación. El artículo analiza cómo las placas y los espectáculos fueron diseñados para fomentar el reconocimiento y la proyección en sus audiencias, permitiéndoles comparar las lecciones morales transmitidas por muchos de los conjuntos de placas ‘Life Model’ con sus propias experiencias cotidianas. También pretende explicar la capacidad de persuasión de muchas de estas colecciones de placas mostrándolas como una forma de entretenimiento, que a veces parece melodramática o ingenua para los espectadores modernos, y que fueron hábilmente diseñadas por incontables linternistas locales para cumplir importantes fines entre sus audiencias.
