Book Synopsis Masters of the Ninth Art by : Matthew Screech
Download or read book Masters of the Ninth Art written by Matthew Screech and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In English-speaking countries, Francophone comic strips like Hergés's Les Aventures de Tin Tin and Goscinny and Uderzo's Les Aventures d'Asterix are viewed—and marketed—as children's literature. But in Belgium and France, their respective countries of origin, such strips—known as bandes dessinées—are considered a genuine art form, or, more specifically, "the ninth art." But what accounts for the drastic difference in the way such comics are received? In Masters of the Ninth Art, Matthew Screech explores that difference in the reception and reputation of bandes dessinées. Along with in-depth looks at Tin Tin and Asterix, Screech considers other major comics artists such as Jacque Tardi, Jean Giraud, and Moebius, assessing in the process their role in Francophone literary and artistic culture. Illustrated with images from the artists discussed, Masters of the Ninth Art will appeal to students of European popular culture, literature, and graphic art.

Book Synopsis Asterix the Star and Trebonius the Tribune by : Christine Anghie

This book was released on 2022-01-12 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose for which the first story was written is to give younger readers a connection to a story written as a fable, while at the same time interwoven with biblical characters, events, and Christian tradition; young adults could read it as an allegory. The second story takes a lesser known biblical character and depicts his unlikely journey of Christian conversion culminating in his witnessing the historical crucifixion of St. Peter. It too has events and characters from the New Testament making it therefore a work of biblical fiction. The overarching theme of these stories is to have young people reconnect with the works and message of Jesus Christ, and the birth of Christianity.
