Matrix jako cykl intertekstualny

Abstrakt

The text is an attempt to present lesser-known plot interpretations of the Matrix series (both film trilogy and anime Animatrix) movies. The author uses various research perspectives (religio-mystical, political and socio-economic ones) to present possible ways of interpretation of particular motifs and characters, referring among others to mystical beliefs, Gnostic ideas and the tradition of initiation novel, but also to contemporary popular culture regarding films and science fiction novels. The analysis contains as well socio-political issues touched upon in the movie; moreover on the example of Anonymous Group activities the author reveals the way Matrix series still influences contemporary culture.
