Book Synopsis Baudelaire and Caricature: From the Comic to an Art of Modernity by :
Download or read book Baudelaire and Caricature: From the Comic to an Art of Modernity written by and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baudelaire's essays on caricature offered the first sustained defense of the value of caricature as a serious art, worthy of study in its own right. This book argues for the crucial importance of the essays for his conception of modernity, so fundamental to the subsequent history of modernism. From the theory of the comic formulated in De l'essence du rire to his discussions of Daumier, Goya, Hogarth, Cruikshank, Bruegel, Grandville, Gavarni, Charlet, and many others, Baudelaire develops not only an aesthetic of caricature but also a caricatural aesthetic--dual and contradictory, grotesque, ironic, violent, farcical, fantastic, and fleeting--that defines an art of modern life. In particular, Baudelaire's insistence on the dualism and ambiguity of laughter has radical implications for such emblems of modernity as the city and the flâneur who roams the streets. The modern city is the space of the comic, a kind of caricature, presenting the flâneur with an image of dualism, one's position as subject and object, implicated in the same urban experiences one seems to control. The theory of the comic invests the idea of modernity with reciprocity, one's status as laughter and object of laughter, thus preventing the subjective construction and appropriation of the world that has so often been linked with the project of modernism. Comic art reflects what Walter Benjamin later defined as Baudelairean allegory, at once representing and revealing the alienation of modern experience. But Baudelaire also transforms the dualism of the comic into a peculiarly modern unity-- the doubling of the comic artist enacted for the benefit of the audience, the self-generating and self-reflexive experience of the flâneur in a "communion" with the crowd. This study examines his views in the context of the history of comic theory and contemporary accounts of the individual artists. Complete with illustrations of the many works discussed, it illuminates the history and theory of caricature, the comic, and the grotesque, and adds to our understanding of modernism in literature and the visual arts.

Book Synopsis Caricature and French Political Culture 1830-1848 by : David S. Kerr
Download or read book Caricature and French Political Culture 1830-1848 written by David S. Kerr and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2000-09-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Philipon (1800-1862) was the founder of the satirical illustrated press in France. With the newspapers he owned and directed, La Caricature and Le Charivari, he led an unprecedentedly coherent and vitriolic campaign of disrespect against King Louis-Philippe and his regime. Using a group of young caricaturists (the most talented of whom were Daumier, Grandville, and Travies) and the collaboration of a gifted team of writers (including Balzac) he crafted a new language of opposition. This book is the first full scholarly study of the structure of the illustrated press in the 1830s, its contribution to political debate in France, the dissemination of caricature and its potential as political propaganda, and the links between caricature and other forms of political-cultural discourse under the July Monarchy.
Book Synopsis Emile Cohl, Caricature, and Film by : Donald Crafton
Download or read book Emile Cohl, Caricature, and Film written by Donald Crafton and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the definitive biography of Emile Cohl (1857-1938), one of the most important pioneers of the art of the animated cartoon and an innovative contributor to popular graphic humor at a critical moment when it changed from traditional caricature to the modern comic strip. This profusely illustrated book provides not only a wealth of information on Cohl's life but also an analysis of his contribution to the development of the animation film in both France and the United States and an interpretation of how the new genre fit into the historical shift from a "primitive" to a "classical" cinema. "Beautiful in look and design, with stunning reproductions from films and newspapers, Emile Cohl, Caricature, and Film offers a biography of a figure who virtually created the European art of animation... In its theory and history, the book is one of the most important contributions to [the field of animated film]. But [it] is central for film study per se, offering a fresh, exciting look at the complicated world of early cinema."--Dana Polan, Film Quarterly Originally published in 1990.

Book Synopsis Histoire de France par la caricature by : Annie Duprat
Download or read book Histoire de France par la caricature written by Annie Duprat and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'histoire est inséparable de ses images, et les images ne sont jamais aussi libres et inventives que lorsqu'elles deviennent caricatures. Du XVIe siècle à nos jours, le génie critique et l'esprit dénigreur des Français multiplient les caricatures : feuilles volantes, images d'Epinal ou dessins de presse, tous les prétextes sont bons pour rire des grands de ce monde, des travers de la société, des modes... Lorsqu'elle devient politique, la caricature est une arme, un véritable contre-pouvoir, en dépit du poids d'une censure longtemps présente en France. Qui ne se souvient de Louis XVI en roi-cochon, de Charles X en girafe, de Louis-Philippe en poire ? La plupart des événements de notre histoire ont leurs caricatures : la Ligue, la Révolution, l'affaire Dreyfus, la guerre d'Algérie..., et leurs caricaturistes, parfois de très grands artistes : de Philipon, Daumier et Grandjouan à Effel, Cabu, Wolinski ou Plantu... Car l'histoire ne s'élabore pas seulement par les textes. La caricature exprime aussi, à sa manière, les aspirations d'une société qui n'a pas toujours " les mots pour le dire ". Avec la chanson, elle fait et défait " l'air du temps ". Ce livre invite le lecteur à une histoire revue et corrigée par des images toujours pertinentes, souvent drôles, parfois grinçantes, féroces ou tragiques : deux cents caricatures commentées avec humour par l'une des meilleures spécialistes du genre.
Book Synopsis A Sourcebook of Gauguin's Symbolist Followers by : Russell T. Clement
Download or read book A Sourcebook of Gauguin's Symbolist Followers written by Russell T. Clement and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2004-06-30 with total page 964 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) played a seminal role in Post-Impressionist France. In his writings and work, he favored emotional responses to nature over intellectual uses of lines, color, and composition. In 1888 he and Emile Bernard developed a new style called Synthetism. Three groups of Gauguin's symbolist followers—Pont Aven, Les Nabis, and Rose + Croix pursued and extended the Synthetist vision. This sourcebook focuses on the most prominent adherents of the three schools directly affected by Gauguin's symbolism. This is the first comprehensive, single-volume guide and bibliography of artists in these three important French avant-garde movements. This work covers the entire careers of 16 artists by providing biographical sketches, chronologies, citations to primary and secondary literature and exhibitions.
Book Synopsis L'art et l'histoire de la caricature by : Laurent Baridon
Download or read book L'art et l'histoire de la caricature written by Laurent Baridon and published by Citadelles et Mazenod. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme " caricature " est souvent appliqué sans distinction à la gravure de mœurs, aux cartoons, voire au dessin d'humour en général. Son étymologie indique cependant qu'il vient de l'italien caricatura et du latin caricare qui signifie, au propre comme au figuré, " charger ". La caricature attaque donc le corps et le visage par l'exagération de leurs singularités ou de leurs défauts, à des fins comiques ou satiriques. Si ce corps est celui des individus, il peut également accéder à une dimension symbolique et représenter une entité abstraite ou collective. Faire l'histoire de la caricature consiste donc à en suivre les déclinaisons. Le plus souvent, elles transgressent les règles ou les conventions du grand art qui aspire à l'idéal. Mais elles contribuent aussi à le faire évoluer vers des modes d'expression nouveaux. La caricature comme genre spécifique fondé sur la déformation de la figure humaine apparaît en Italie à la Renaissance avant de se propager à l'Europe entière, puis au-delà. Une de ses spécificités réside d'ailleurs dans l'importance de sa diffusion, largement favorisée par les nouvelles techniques de gravures apparues au même moment. Depuis la Réforme, l'estampe a été le vecteur de la caricature, qu'elle soit religieuse ou politique, tout comme l'imprimerie a été celui de la fustigation par le pamphlet. La lithographie a ensuite joué un rôle central dans l'essor de la presse satirique au XIXe siècle, tandis que les nouveaux procédés de reproduction ont permis la démocratisation des images. Dans ce contexte, il n'est guère étonnant de compter quelques caricaturistes parmi les premiers photographes. Ces nouvelles formes de reproductibilité induisaient une conception de l'art moins élitiste qui faisait écho aux préoccupations des théoriciens de l'art et des penseurs politiques. Autour de 1900, être caricaturiste de presse fut souvent un engagement. Parce qu'elle remettait en cause les principes de la représentation traditionnelle, la caricature intéressait les artistes des avant-gardes. Mais elle fut surtout le creuset de la bande dessinée et du dessin animé, deux formes emblématiques de la culture visuelle populaire. Depuis lors, la caricature a constamment été enrichie par d'autres techniques, jusqu'à celles du numérique, dans des médias toujours plus variés, pour une diffusion sans cesse accrue.

Book Synopsis The Satiric Decade by : Amy Wiese Forbes
Download or read book The Satiric Decade written by Amy Wiese Forbes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2010 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Where do democratic political practices originate? This issue has long concerned republics, but few historians have studied the process by which people learn the skills of rights-based government. In this illuminating history, Amy Wiese Forbes addresses these origins by analyzing how republicanism took shape through the political satire that flooded French newspapers, theaters, courtrooms, and even academic life in 1830. Forbes shows that satire was the chief source of the critical spirit of republicanism that erupted in the 1840s and sustained the Republic in the 1870s and argues against the notion that satire had no lasting political impact. This book will speak to historians of French politics, republicanism, popular culture, the July Monarchy, satire and political humor, class and gender formation, and legal history." --Book Jacket.
Book Synopsis Baudelaire's Argot Plastique by : Ainslie Armstrong McLees
Download or read book Baudelaire's Argot Plastique written by Ainslie Armstrong McLees and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the poet's fascination with the affective power of caricature, Baudelaire's “Argot Plastique” charts the movement in Baudelaire's poetry toward a language of visual distortion. McLees demonstrates that caricature, graphically and culturally a vehicle of sharp wit and social commentary, became in Baudelaire's works a poetic expression of the human condition itself. Using its capacity for deflating commentary to subvert the poetic conventions of his age, transferring its range of subjects into a poetry that celebrated the underclass, Baudelaire ultimately focused the lens of poetic caricature on the relation of subject, artist, and viewer. Richly illustrated with lithographs, etchings, and drawings by Goya, Daumier, Grandville, Gavarni, and other caricaturists, Baudelaire's “Argot Plastique” reveals the importance of caricature as a model for Baudelaire's poetry.

Book Synopsis Political Censorship of the Arts and the Press in Nineteenth-Century by : Robert Justin Goldstein
Download or read book Political Censorship of the Arts and the Press in Nineteenth-Century written by Robert Justin Goldstein and published by Springer. This book was released on 1989-08-14 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political Censorship of the Arts and the Press in Nineteenth-Century Europe presents a comprehensive account of the attempts by authorities throughout Europe to stifle the growth of political opposition during the nineteenth-century by censoring newspapers, books, caricatures, plays, operas and film. Appeals for democracy and social reform were especially suspect to the authorities, so in Russia cookbooks which refered to 'free air' in ovens were censored as subversive, while in England in 1829 the censor struck from a play the remark that 'honest men at court don't take up much room'. While nineteenth-century European political censorship blocked the open circulation of much opposition writing and art, it never succeeded entirely in its aim since writers, artists and 'consumers' often evaded the censors by clandestine circulation of forbidden material and by the widely practised skill of 'reading between the lines'.
