Lähte Ühisgümnaasium HALLUTSINATSIOONID Referaat Koostaja: Reelika Soo Lähte 2016 SISUKORD 2 SISSEJUHATUS Valisin selle teema, kuna see teema pakkus antud töö autorile kõige enam huvi. Sõna ,,hallutsinatsioonid" tuli kasutusele 16.sajandil. Tol ajal tähendas see niinimetatud uitavat meelt. Prantsuse psühhiaater Jean Etienne Esquirol pani 1830. aasatel sellele sõnale tänapäevase nimetuse. Sõna täpne definitsioon võib erineda, sest piir hallutsinatsioonide, väärtaju ja illusioonide vahel ei pruugi alati väga selge olla. Üldiselt võib hallutsinatsioone defineerida kui aistinguid, mida tajutakse ilma igasuguse välise ärrituseta. Hallutsinatsioonid on sageli hirmutavad. Mõnikord võib põhjuseks olla mingi teatud objekt nagu näiteks ämblik. Tavalisi kujutluspilte, nagu näiteks nelinurka, sõbra nägu või Eiffeli torni silme et...

A abstraktsionism 20. sajandi alguses tekkinud kunstivool, mis jaguneb geomeetriliseks ja ekspressiivseks abstraktsionismiks. Esimesel juhul moodustub pilt geomeetrilistest kujunditest, teisel juhul kasutab kunstnik oma tunnete väljendamiseks värvilaikude vaba paigutust. Näiteks Piet Mondriani (18721944) või Vassili Kandinsky (18661944) looming. absurdikunst kunstimeetod, mis sündis vastusena Teise maailmasõja õudustele. Selle suuna esindajad väljendasid oma teostes katastroofi üle elanud inimese tundeid ja mõtteid. Absurditeoste tegelased on kaotanud isiksusele omased jooned. Nende tegevusel puudub eesmärk ja elul väljavaade, nad on vaid olendid, kes elavad antud hetkes kellegi armust. Absurdikirjanikena on saanud tuntuks näiteks iirlane Samuel Beckett (1906) ja rumeenlane Eugéne Ionesco (1912), eesti kirjanikest on absurdi Mati Undi (1944) loomingus.
