French Theatre Today

In 2005 literary and film critic Edward Turk immersed himself in New York City’s ACT FRENCH festival, a bold effort to enhance American contact with the contemporary French stage. This dizzying crash course on numerous aspects of current French theatre paved the way for six months of theatregoing in Paris and a month’s sojourn at the 2006 Avignon Festival. In French Theatre Today he turns his yearlong involvement with this rich topic into an accessible, intelligent, and comprehensive overview of contemporary French theatre. Situating many of the nearly 150 stage pieces he attended within contexts and timeframes that stretch backward and forward over a number of years, he reveals French t...

Murder and Society

Human psychological and physical well-being is damaged and destroyed when people are deliberately killed by other people. There are millions of primary and secondary victims of murder throughout the world, and human society as a whole is a tertiary victim of murder. Despite this, people are often fascinated and engrossed by stories of homicide and killers. This book provides a fascinating exploration of murder, providing an insight into what leads people to kill and what effect this has on society as a whole. This book is organized into five chapters that each answer a specific question on murder: What is Murder? Who Commits Murder? Why Commit Murder? Why is Murder Devastating? Why is Murder Fascinating?

Encyclopedia of French Film Directors

Cinema has been long associated with France, dating back to 1895, when Louis and Auguste Lumi_re screened their works, the first public viewing of films anywhere. Early silent pioneers Georges MZli_s, Alice Guy BlachZ and others followed in the footsteps of the Lumi_re brothers and the tradition of important filmmaking continued throughout the 20th century and beyond. In Encyclopedia of French Film Directors, Philippe Rège identifies every French director who has made at least one feature film since 1895. From undisputed masters to obscure one-timers, nearly 3,000 directors are cited here, including at least 200 filmmakers not mentioned in similar books published in France. Each director's ...

Arno

Arno Hintjens staat al bijna een halve eeuw als muzikant op het podium. Vanaf 1970 als mondharmonicaspeler van de bluesgroep Freckle Face, daarna als zanger van Tjens Couter en T.C. Matic, waarmee hij in 1981 doorbrak met de hit Oh la la la. Andere new wave hits volgden, zoals Que Pasa en Putain, putain. Vanaf 1986 ging Arno solo, wat dertig jaar later resulteerde in zijn dertiende studio-album Human Incognito. In totaal werkte Arno mee aan niet minder dan 32 studio-albums. Met zijn hoogst persoonlijke stijl weet Arno verscheidene genres en talen te verweven: rock met new wave, blues en chanson, gezongen in het Engels, Frans, Nederlands of zelfs zijn Oostends dialect.

Autofiction: pratiques et théories

L’autofiction, considérée dans l’Histoire littéraire, est un genre nouveau. Mais cette classification générique, envisagée précisément, peut nous paraître déjà ancienne, tant elle a fait l’objet d’articles, de débats, de polémiques, d’attaques et de plaidoyers. Autofiction : pratiques et théories regroupe des recensions et des articles publiés depuis une dizaine d’années sur des sites littéraires, dans des revues universitaires ou associatives. On y retrouve analysées les récentes parutions d’écrivains emblématiques de l’écriture de soi tels que Christine Angot, Christophe Donner ou Camille Laurens mais aussi les dernières publications universitaires qui questionnent le genre sous différents angles, historique, génétique, politique, ou qui en font un outil d’analyse permettant l’étude du travail d’écrivains aussi différents que Proust, Colette ou Frédéric Beigbeder. Tenter de voir plus clair dans le bouillonnement théorico-littéraire de l’autofiction, saisir les enjeux de cette nouvelle écriture de soi, telle est l’ambition du présent ouvrage.
