Memory, Identity and Spatiality in David Mazzucchelli's Asterios Polyp
postScriptum: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Literary Studies 293 postScriptum: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Literary Studies ISSN: 2456-7507 <postscriptum.co.in> Online – Open Access – Peer Reviewed – DOAJ Indexed Volume V Number ii (July 2020) Renegotiating Binaries: Memory, Identity and Spatiality in David Mazzucchelli’s Asterios Polyp Divyani Sharma MPhil Scholar, Department of English, Visva-Bharati Divyani Sharma is an MPhil scholar at Visva-Bharati. She takes a keen interest in graphic novels and webcomics. She is especially interested in the interaction between texts and illustrations, both on traditional and digital media. Abstract David Mazzucchelli’s eponymous Asterios Polyp, a renowned ‘Paper Architect’, gives birth to ideas of award- winning spaces, that do not befit translation on to concrete. The Odyssean journey of Asterios Polyp is interspersed with an accompanying duality, as his movement from his urban residence in Manhattan to a small town called Apogee, is strictly to redefine his identity in consort with the changing geographical and cultural space; the narrative switches back and forth between his famed urban past and reclusive rural present, with memory acting as the thread of perpetual actual phenomenon, tying him to his eternal present (Nora). Mazzucchelli continuously reconstructs the identity of Polyp and his memories through distinct stylistic variations, with changes in societal and spatial conditions adversely affecting their representation on the page. Through an interdisciplinary focus on cultural studies and spatial production, this paper aims to posit that the shifting milieu of the social and cultural space inhabited by Polyp unremittingly impinges on his identity, leading to a re-negotiation between his memories within the context of his mutating cultural space.

A Música Pop, todavia, possui nos sons o canal transmissor de seus conteúdos. Completamente distintas, tais linguagens trazem em comum o fato de serem absolutamente características do século XX, bem como dos dias atuais. Principalmente nas últimas quatro décadas, tanto as Histórias em Quadrinhos quanto a Música Pop têm buscado não apenas se aproximar, como também estabelecer uma série de interlocuções, interfaces e mesmo hibridações entre si. O estudo deste processo constitui o cerne da dissertação que ora se inicia, intitulada Histórias em Quadrinhos e Música Pop: Possibilidades de Interface. Por meio das experiências realizadas na Contracultura, nas capas de disco de Rock, através de entrevistas com quadrinistas notadamente interessados em hibridação de linguagens e, principalmente, com a realização de uma experiência empírica - da qual resultarão um disco e um romance em quadrinhos procuraremos compreender e jogar alguma luz sobre este tema.

Asterios Polyp » De David Mazzucchelli Grand Prix De La Critique 2011 Éditions Casterman
Communiqué de presse Paris ACBD - 02 décembre 2010 « Asterios Polyp » de David Mazzucchelli Grand Prix de la Critique 2011 éditions Casterman Avec ce prix, l’ACBD, l’Association des Critiques et journalistes de Bande Dessinée, consacre un maître de la bande dessinée américaine passé du registre des comics et de leurs super-héros à la littérature graphique la plus personnelle. Asterios Polyp est un ouvrage innovant tant par la (dé)construction de son récit que par la transcription en images des intentions de l’auteur et des états d’âme des personnages. Biographie rêvée, le récit joue des flashbacks pour révéler par touches, par bribes, par bouts de souvenirs, le parcours chaotique, les amours ratées, les ambitions contrariées d’Asterios Polyp, architecte de papier. Comprenez : un grand professionnel admiré, mais qui n’a jamais rien construit. Asterios Polyp est un livre froid et parfaitement maîtrisé, jusque dans ces audaces formelles. David Mazzucchelli est né en 1960, à Providence (Rhode Island) aux États-Unis. Il se fait connaître au cours des années quatre-vingt en illustrant les aventures de super-héros comme Daredevil (chez Marvel) et Batman (chez DC), sur des scénarios de Frank Miller, où son dessin sobre le fait immédiatement remarquer. Il prend cependant rapidement ses distances avec l'industrie des comics pour devenir un illustrateur et un auteur de récits littéraires ou intimistes, notamment avec l’adaptation du roman de Paul Auster Cité de verre (en 1994), avec son propre comic-book Rubber Blanket ou avec son premier roman graphique Asterios Polyp, paru aux USA en 2009. Par ailleurs, il enseigne la bande dessinée à l'école de design de Rhode Island et à l'école des Arts visuels de New York.

Reading Comics
(IN) BETWEEN WORD AND IMAGE: READING COMICS A thesis presented to the faculty of the Graduate School of Western Carolina University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English. By Rain Newcomb Director: Dr. Marsha Lee Baker Associate Professor of English English Department Committee Members: Dr. Craig Fischer, English Dr. Beth Huber, English April 2011 © 2011 by Rain Newcomb ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all, thank you to my committee. Your time, insight, and questions helped shape this thesis. This project was a leap of faith—thanks for taking it with me! In particular, thank you to my director, Marsha Lee Baker. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your love, dedication, support, and late nights. But mostly thank you for telling me what I needed to hear, even when I didn’t want to hear it. (And for never saying, “I told you that two weeks ago, why didn’t you listen?” even when you definitely could have.) Thanks to Craig Fischer for embarking on this project with three complete strangers, for reading early drafts and half-baked ideas (and nicely telling me how much further I needed to go), and for always pointing me to the perfect source. And of course, thanks to Beth Huber. You were always exactly where I needed you to be, even before I knew I needed you there. Thanks to many, many people in my life who have helped me with this project directly and indirectly. From my friends in the Writing Center to strangers standing in line for coffee, the number of people interested in this project astounds me.
