Book Marcel Pagnol

    Book Details:
  • Author : Brett Bowles
  • Publisher : Manchester University Press
  • Release : 2019-01-11
  • ISBN : 1526141647
  • Pages : 278 pages

Download or read book Marcel Pagnol written by Brett Bowles and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though long ignored or dismissed by film critics and scholars, Marcel Pagnol (1895-1974) was among the most influential auteurs of his era. This comprehensive overview of Pagnol’s career, the first ever published in English, highlights his unique place in French cinema as a self-sufficient writer-producer-director and his contribution to the long-term evolution of filmmaking in a broader European context. In addition to reassessing the converted playwright’s controversial prioritisation of speech over image, the book juxtaposes Pagnol’s sunny rural melodramas with the dark, urban variety of poetic realism practised by influential peers such as Jean Renoir and Marcel Carné. In his penchant for outdoor location shooting and ethnographic authenticity, as well as his stubborn attachment to independent, artisanal production values, Pagnol served as a precursor to the French New Wave and Italian Neo-Realism, inspiring the likes of Jean-Luc Godard, François Truffaut, Vittorio De Sica, and Roberto Rossellini.

Book Britain  France and the Decolonization of Africa

Download or read book Britain France and the Decolonization of Africa written by Andrew W.M. Smith and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at decolonization in the conditional tense, this volume teases out the complex and uncertain ends of British and French empire in Africa during the period of ‘late colonial shift’ after 1945. Rather than view decolonization as an inevitable process, the contributors together explore the crucial historical moments in which change was negotiated, compromises were made, and debates were staged. Three core themes guide the analysis: development, contingency and entanglement. The chapters consider the ways in which decolonization was governed and moderated by concerns about development and profit. A complementary focus on contingency allows deeper consideration of how colonial powers planned for ‘colonial futures’, and how divergent voices greeted the end of empire. Thinking about entanglements likewise stresses both the connections that existed between the British and French empires in Africa, and those that endured beyond the formal transfer of power.

Book Walker Evans   Dan Graham   exposition Rotterdam  1992  Marseille  Mus  e Cantini  M  nster  Westfalisches Landesmuseum  1993  New York  Whitney Museum of American Art  1994

Download or read book Walker Evans Dan Graham exposition Rotterdam 1992 Marseille Mus e Cantini M nster Westfalisches Landesmuseum 1993 New York Whitney Museum of American Art 1994 written by Jean-François Chevrier and published by Witte de with Center for Contemporary Art. This book was released on 1992 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Si l'oeuvre de Walker Evans (1903-1975) est strictement photographique, la photographie ne constitue qu'un aspect, mais très important, de celle de Dan Graham. Pour ces deux artistes américains, la photographie représente une manière d'approfondir leur intérêt pour l'architecture, la vie urbaine et la culture vernaculaire. Walker Evans réalisa l'essentiel de son oeuvre dans les années 1930, réunissant un ensemble d'images qui préfigurent le Pop Art. Dan Graham s'est manifesté dans l'art conceptuel des années 1960, comme l'un des artistes qui ont repris le plus consciemment l'héritage du Pop Art. L'exposition a été conçue par l'historien d'art Jean-François Chevrier. Les photographies et les textes du livre qui l'accompagnent devraient mettre en évidence les constantes formelles et culturelles communes à l'histoire des arts visuels et à l'histoire de la photographie."--Page 4 de la couverture.
