160; the occasional Simon Bradley. Symbol and Metaphor in Lars von Trier’s Antichrist. Posted by Simon at 22:23. Part One: The Title. Further abstract discussion of this would lead us into convoluted digressions of semiotics, denotations, connotations, signifieds and the like, losing focus on the central contention that the relationship between symbol and metaphor is simply problematic.
