  • Chapter One Introduction
    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Reading books can be one of the choices for some people to spend their spare time. There are some kinds of book; they are novel, biography, poetry, drama, comics, etc. They have their own styles; however, the one that I find most interesting is comics. Comics can be described as “a form of visual art consisting of images which are commonly combined with text often in the form of speech balloons or image captions” <http: www.answers.com>. I like the way how the story of a comic is presented in frames and how the utterances are presented in the speech balloons. Moreover, I like the pictures and the language which is simpler to understand. I like to read comics especially funny comics. I like comics which have funny story, funny pictures and witty language. Usually we say that comics are funny because of the story, but actually, we can say that a comic is funny not only from the story itself, but also from the picture of the comic, or the witty language or speech that is used in the story. Maranatha Christian University 1 Wittiness is the ability to say or write clever, amusing things (Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary 2005: 1755). There are a lot of ways to make witty language; one of them is by using language play. Language play is ‘an action of manipulating the language by bending and breaking its rules’ (Crystal, 1998: 1). We can find a lot of language play in comic books.

Besides this, I also attempt to prove that by virtue of allusive references, this comic series attains satirical, subversive and historical sensitivity that can be placed within the larger bounds of historical materialism .H\:RUGV Asterix and Obelix, The mainstream, Structural approach, Graphic Literature, Art and Literature. http://www.ijellh.com 142 Volume II, Issue VII, November 2014 - ISSN 2321-7065 0DLQSDSHU In early June 2006, the final of the FIFA World Cup 2006 involving Italy and France was caricatured in a part of the French print media as a battle between Roman Legionaries and Gaulish Villagers. For the sake of a recreational sport, this allegorical print representation carried obvious tones of fun and excitement, but for any analytical purpose, historical, cognitive or perceptive, this idea presents a much more complex picture. By a slight elaboration in the frame of reference for the aforementioned fields of analysis, it is possible to narrow down the “complex picture” to a literary head: the cartoon series of Asterix and Obelix created by French artists Rene Goscinny and Albert Uderzo. There has been a fair battle in literary circles if a comic strip translated to a hundred languages worldwide qualifies to attain mainstream literary status.

The first Asterix adventure (Asterix the Gaul) appeared in a magazine called Pilote and from then on, 32 other official Asterix comics have been published. Rene Goscinny wrote the books while Albert Uderzo illustrated them until the death of Goscinny aged 51. Uderzo then carried on the series. As well as the comic books, there have been many spin-offs including movie books, game books, Dogmatix books etc. Asterix is so popular, he even has his own theme park and movies. Plot The series is about a village of Gauls that have managed to hold out from the Roman invaders because of their Druid Getafix's Magic Potion.

  • A Fixed Astérix: a Comic Reading of Romanization in Gaul
    Adam W. Darlage Oakton Community College A Fixed Astérix: A Comic Reading of Romanization in Gaul Abstract René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo’s Astérix has become one of the most popular comics around the world; it has sold over 380 million copies and has been translated into over 100 languages. Astérix follows the adventures of Asterix, his best friend Obelix, and other Gauls who live in the only village that has not surrendered to the Romans after Julius Caesar’s defeat of Vercingetorix at the Battle of Alesia in 52 BCE. The comic imagines a place where the Gauls successfully resist Roman domination and thus speaks to issues of colonization and conquest. At the same time, Astérix uses several comic strategies to highlight the processes of acculturation and adaptation that have long been at work among modern European national cultures. Through its counterfactual comic rewriting of the aftermath of the Gallic Wars, Astérix presents a cosmopolitan Gallo- Roman world populated by different historical cultures. Through Astérix, Goscinny and Uderzo present and promote a vision of the French past to be celebrated in defiance of the Romans today, those who would modernize France at the expense of her rich cultural heritage. 1. Astérix and Romanization René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo published the first Astérix comic in the October 1959 edition of the French comic magazine Pilote. This bande dessinée (Franco-Belgian comic) has enjoyed sustained popularity around the world. It has sold over 380 million copies and has been translated into over 100 languages (McElduff 2016; Gustines 2019).Astérix became a national hit almost overnight; in 1965, just six years after the publication of Astérix le Gaulois, the French launched their first satellite into space bearing the name Astérix, aka A-1 (Nye, 1980).

I was one of forty kids in a classroom learning a poem about French soldiers dying on a plain in the North of France. One student started giggling; he was reading the new Asterix comic. Asterix's friend Obelix had jumped into a swimming pool, and his weight had shifted all the water into a neighboring swimming pool. When the guard in the comic asked the chief of the Asterix, the hero of these adventures. Gauls where the Gauls were, the Taken from Asterix in Corsica, 1981. chief answered, "The Gauls are in Reprinted with permission. the full one" (the full swimming pool). The word "full" in French is "pleine" and sounds like the word "plain." Upset, our teacher asked the boy why he was giggling.
