This monograph offers the first-ever, full-length analysis of the most irreverent book of Italian Futurism: L’anguria lirica, printed in 1934 on tin metal sheets, with design and poetic text by Tullio d’Albisola and illustrations by Bruno Munari. This study, which features the unabridged reproduction of the pages of the tin book, accompanied by the first English translation of the poem, aims to disentangle the complex relationship between text and image in this total artwork. It shows how the endless series of material transformations at its core – of woman into food, of love into desecrating religion, of man into machine, of poetry into matter – fostered a radical change in poetry-writing, thus breaking away from a stagnant lyrical past.
Whether one thinks of the modern world or of more remote times, both seem to have been affected – if not moulded – by the interaction between the concepts of authority and displacement. Indeed, political and social sources of authority have often been the causes of major geographical displacements, as can be illustrated by the numerous waves of migration which have been observed in the past and which are still present today, such as the transportation of slaves from African to American coasts in colonial times. If displacement can often be understood as spatial displacement, it can also be synonymous with psychological, social, and even aesthetic displacement, for instance through differ...
This edition of Thierry Groensteen’s The System of Comics makes available in English a groundbreaking work on comics by one of the medium’s foremost scholars. In this book, originally published in France in 1999, Groensteen explains clearly the subtle, complex workings of the medium and its unique way of combining visual, verbal, spatial, and chronological expressions. The author explores the nineteenth-century pioneer Rodolphe Töpffer, contemporary Japanese creators, George Herriman’s Krazy Kat, and modern American autobiographical comics. The System of Comics uses examples from a wide variety of countries including the United States, England, Japan, France, and Argentina. It describ...
Bringing together leading scholars from Belgium, Canada, France, and the United States, French Thinking about Animals makes available for the first time to an Anglophone readership a rich variety of interdisciplinary approaches to the animal question in France. While the work of French thinkers such as Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, and Felix Guattari has been available in English for many years, French Thinking about Animals opens up a much broader cross-cultural dialogue within animal studies. These original essays, many of which have been translated especially for this volume, draw on anthropology, ethology, geography, history, legal studies, phenomenology, and philosophy to interrogate...

Miroirs, fragments, mosaïques... L'oeuvre d'art au XXe siècle s'est construite selon certains principes de discontinuité. La totalité et l'unité de l'oeuvre ont été soumises à des liaisons et déliaisons particulièrement marquées. Cet ouvrage explore ces opérations dans les domaines des arts plastiques, du cinéma, de la littérature, de la musique, de la photographie. Certaines opérations insistent d'un langage à l'autre. Leur repérage dans des oeuvres diverses permet de dégager les matrices de la création artistique au XXe siècle. La notion de " schème " est particulièrement utilisée pour réfléchir et analyser la fabrique de l'art. Les oeuvres étudiées ici sont celles de Marcel Proust et de Gérard Macé, de Paul-Armand Gette et de François Méchain, de Raymond Reynaud et de François Righi, de Raymond Depardon, de Henry Cowell et de Luciano Berio, et d'autres

Entre la littérature et le cinéma que Marguerite Duras dit bâti sur une « défaite de l'écrit » s'ouvre un espace de jeu, s'entretissent des relations fructueuses explorées ici sur le mode de la fiction, du témoignage ou du commentaire par des créateurs (écrivains, cinéastes) ou des universitaires.
