  • The purpose of this study is to pay attention to the expression of good and evil which has Been significantly developed out of the existing dichotomous good and evil in animation films and to identify for them. Even though 3D animation films provides us with a sense of realistic existence due to surprising technical powers, the stories contained in such films tend to remain in the limit of family films. However, recently, some films have been presented beyond such limit with a scenario that makes people introspect their inner side. Among them, this study considered the expression of good and evil of , which extended the meaning of didactic morality into the dimension of 'Philosophy of Dionysian yes', as significant for research purpose. More specifically, this study looked at and discussed this film in more details in the aspect of focusing on the value of good and evil for eliminating the boundary of the existing perspective and pursuing positive overcoming. The frame of the concept for discussion used the philosophical statements of Kant and Hegel as well as Nietzsche who explained the meaning of good and evil with Dionysian view. As to the method of research, this study attempted to understand the theoretically related concepts and discuss the meaning, along with the presentation of examples, by inputting such meaning into the expression of good and evil presented in the film. This study has the implication in identifying that an animation film, as a virtual world, plays a role of opening a new prospect for conversion of thought in our real world and expecting a future progress.

  • The aim of this thesis is to elucidate the meaning of play which constitutes the genuine happiness of human being in Plato's '$heort{\bar{e}}$' and Aristotle's '$schol{\bar{e}}$'. Until now '$heort{\bar{e}}$', a divine act which communicate with original divinity, was differentiated from paidia. And '$schol{\bar{e}}$' was understood as activities in spare time opposed to labour. Plato put '$heort{\bar{e}}$' at the center of their life as a means for gods' blessing. Aristotle understand '$schol{\bar{e}}$' as free activities and the completion of individual life. For Aristotle play is not only a freedom from labour but also a supreme activity. Play itself is an end and a completion. Play is the essence of human life so man can be happy with play. Play is the activity of joy. And play is the most intellectual and spontaneous activity. Now we can assert that '$heort{\bar{e}}$' is the original play which elucidate the existence of the human being in connection with world and is the holy mode of play which makes an affluent life of communities. And we can maintain that '$schol{\bar{e}}$' is a mode of play which freed from the burden of labour and elevate the life of human being to academic activities and contemplative life. By this interpretation we can expose that play is the center of life. We can see the two fold meaning of apollonian-dionysian play and the perfect harmony of communities in Plato's '$heort{\bar{e}}$'. We can see also the delight as splendidness of life in Aristotle's '$schol{\bar{e}}$'. The Plato's theory of play seems different from Aristotle's. But their theories are the same in the general, because they both put play at the center of life and they equally assert that we have to live with playing our life. The world in which play is in harmony with labour- this world is their utopia.
