Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The son of Miguel Almereyda, an anarchist activist who died in prison, Jean Vigo kept faith with the politics of his father through his art. One of the most influential filmmakers in cinema history, Vigo gave aesthetic expression to anarchist ideology in four films: the city symphony À propos de Nice (1930), the sports documentary Taris ou la natation (1931), the medium-length Zéro de conduite (1933), and the feature-length L'Atalante (1934), currently ranked by the British Film Institute as the twelfth greatest film of all time. Although his career was cut short by tuberculosis at the age of 29, Jean Vigo continues to be one of the most commanding figures in the history of cinema. In this book, David Weir examines Vigo's cinematic career in both the political and the cultural context of the interwar period in European history, taking stock of the ideological upheavals of the 1930s that plunged the continent into the horrors of fascism and war. Weir also explores Vigo's relationship to other filmmakers of the period, such as Luis Buñuel, Jean Renoir, and Marcel Carné--all of whom, like Vigo, range across the leftist spectrum of the interwar years. In the end, Weir argues that, whereas L'Atalante and the other films have been mostly restored to something like their original condition, more work needs to be done to restore the original ideological meaning of those films.

Download or read book Film and the Anarchist Imagination written by Richard Porton and published by Verso. This book was released on 1999 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bearded bomb-throwers, self-indulgent nihilists, dangerous subversives.these characteristic clichés of anarchists in the popular imagination are often reproduced in the cinema. In Film and the Anarchist Imagination, the first comprehensive survey of anarchism in film, Richard Porton deconstructs such stereotypes while offering an authoritative account of films featuring anarchist characters and motifs. From the early cinema of Griffith and René Clair, to the work of Godard, Lina Wertmüller, Lizzie Borden and Ken Loach, Porton analyzes portrayals of anarchism in film, presenting commentaries and critiques of such classics as Zéro de Conduite, Tout Va Bien, and Love and Anarchy. In addition, he provides an excellent guide to the complex traditions of anarchist thought, from Bakunin and Kropotkin to Emma Goldman and Murray Bookchin, disclosing a rich historical legacy that encompasses the Paris Commune, the Haymarket martyrs, the anarcho-syndicalists of the Spanish Civil War, as well as more familiar contemporary avatars like the Situationists and the enragés of May 1968.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed since its initial release, Film and the Anarchist Imagination offers the authoritative account of films featuring anarchist characters and motifs. Richard Porton delves into the many ways filmmakers have portrayed anarchism’s long traditions of labor agitation and revolutionary struggle. While acknowledging cinema’s predilection for ludicrous anarchist stereotypes, he focuses on films that, wittingly or otherwise, reflect or even promote workplace resistance, anarchist pedagogy, self-emancipation, and anti-statist insurrection. Porton ranges from the silent era to the classics Zéro de Conduite and Love and Anarchy to contemporary films like The Nothing Factory while engaging the works of Jean Vigo, Jean-Luc Godard, Lina Wertmüller, Yvonne Rainer, Ken Loach, and others. For this updated second edition, Porton reflects on several new topics, including the negative portrayals of anarchism over the past twenty years and the contemporary embrace of post-anarchism.

Download or read book We, the Anarchists! written by Stuart Christie and published by ChristieBooks.com. This book was released on 2000 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At last. A serious examination of the legendary FAI. And hence, by necessity, a history and analysis of the organised anarchist movement in Spain, and its relationship with the wider labor movement. By far the best book on the subject, Christie is ruthless in his examination - from an anarchist perspective - of the theory, and practice of this loose-knit group of anarchist militants. Required reading for everyone who not only wants to understand the history of Spanish anarchism, but for those that might want to see some viable form of anarchist organisation in the 21st century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Longer--but lesser--Simenon: a gloomy, picaresque tale of doomed love (originally published in France in 1936), featuring yet another Simenon quasi-hero who is led astray by an unworthy woman. Joseph ("Jef") Mittel, young second-generation anarchist (he has reluctantly followed in his legendary father's footsteps), finds himself on the run with lover/comrade Charlotte. . .who has murdered her former employer/lover for supposedly "political" reasons. At Dieppe they sneak aboard a freighter operated by Capt. Mopps, an amoral Dutch gun-runner headed for Panama: Joseph numbly stands by--working as a stoker--while Charlotte promptly becomes Mopps' bedmate. But, after a miserable South American cruise (Mopps' gun-deal falls through), the lovers are back together again: Mopps, disturbed by his obsession with Charlotte, dumps her--and Joseph--in Colombia; they find wretched work in a jungle mining-camp; Charlotte is pregnant (but is the baby Joseph's or Mopps'?); they become fearfully involved in the case of a mad Belgian miner who has been murdered (a suicide verdict is sought by the powers-that-be); Charlotte barely survives an attack of typhoid; they dream of somehow getting back to relative civilization in the town of Buenaventura. And finally that dream comes true (along with the birth of Charlotte's baby). . . just when a letter arrives from Capt. Mopps: he's now in Tahiti, running a pleasure boat, and he invites the couple to join him. Will Joseph remember what happened before and decline this offer? Not at all. Ever rootless, he now yearns for Tahiti, managing to get his fam-of-three aboard a yacht headed there, And, inevitably, more misery awaits: Charlotte's infidelities, questions of the baby's paternity, and (despite a native girl's love) Joseph's descent into madness and illness. Despite the Conrad landscape and the Manon Lescaut outline: familiar Simenon themes--in a sturdy, atmospheric melodrama that lacks the lean, ironic shapeliness of Simenon at his best."--Kirkus
