    7 Alternative francophone (2021) Volume 2 Numéro 8 French Horror : penser l’image vidéoludique par l’horreur. Images monstrueuses et monstration de l’image, de Zombi à 2Dark. https://doi.org/10.1215/08992363-10.29173/af29417 Guillaume Baychelier [email protected] E.A. CLARE, Université Bordeaux Montaigne Résumé. Cette étude examine, à travers un corpus de jeux vidéo horrifiques développés en France sur une période de près de 25 ans, comment le renouvellement des iconographies et la relecture des codes narratifs, tout comme celui des mécaniques de jeu qui y sont habituellement employées, constituent rarement le cœur de des propositions vidéoludiques françaises. Néanmoins, nous montrons comment ces créations ont bien souvent pour point commun de mettre en perspective les procédés de mise en image qu’ils déploient, de la mise en scène au mode de modélisation adopté en passant par la question du flux des images et du regard. Il s’agit donc de voir comment l’horreur, devenue terrain de jeu avec l’image, semble être un prétexte idéal pour travailler, explorer, manipuler le médium et, ainsi, faire évoluer le média. Mots clés : Horreur; jeu vidéo; image; France Abstract. This study examines, through a corpus of horrific video games developed in France over a period of nearly 25 years, how the renewal of iconographies and the re-reading of narrative codes, as well as the game mechanics usually employed in them, rarely constitute the core of French videogame proposals. Nevertheless, we show how these creations very often have in common to put into perspective the imaging processes they deploy, from the staging to the modeling mode adopted, as well as the Alternative francophone https://journals.library.ualberta.ca/af/index.php/af 8 Guillaume Baychelier question of the flow of images and the gaze.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.
