크리스토퍼 놀란의 ≪인터스텔라≫에 나타난 현대 이론물리학의 상보적 기능

Abstract

The chief aim of my paper is to analyze Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar and how modern theoretical physics influences its narrative. The narrative of Interstellar is based on firmly proved theories of physics and possible hypothesis, and the counterparts of the physical theories are non-rational thoughts of the characters. This kind of relationship effectively shows how the physical rationality and non-rational thoughts are necessarily mingling in the cosmic events. This is why we only can read various functions of Interstellar with interdisciplinary aspects. By approaching modern theoretical physics and literary aspects, I would like to find out that solving the secret of Gravity, which is the first power of the cosmos, is deeply related with solving characters’ conflicts and apocalyptic crisis. By this sort of reading proves that Interstellar leads us a new prospect that convergence between modern theoretical physics and literature.
