Biografía de la narración gráfica en España. Approdando alla pubblicazione con una scelta di saggi tematici inediti tendente a costruire un quadro organico del fenomeno, l’occasione di confronto ha inteso aprire orizzonti di ricerca interdisciplinare su un oggetto di studio desueto ma su- scettibile di approcci differenziati, assumendo l’area ispanica come centro di produzione e ricezione di espressioni caratterizzate dall’interazione tra testo e immagine e dall’incrociarsi di linguaggi eterogenei. Dall’ambiente di produzione peninsulare, attraverso traduzioni, rielaborazioni, riscrittu- re, esperienze editoriali, riflessioni degli autori ed esperienze di lettura il focus si allarga su correlazioni comparatistiche e questioni di metodologia, sia all’interno di itinerari personali di indagine, sia tracciando prospettive più generali di indagine. Apre la serie degli interventi il contributo di ampio respiro di Antonio Martín, decano degli studi fumettologici spagnoli, autore pubblicato per la prima volta in Italia, «Historia de la prensa española. Las Revista infan- tiles Falangistas en la guerra de papel de la propaganda. España, 1936- 1939». L’approccio storiografico e attento ai processi culturali rappresenta l’antefatto severo, e talora provinciale nella sua realtà propagandistica, del fumetto franchista, alle metamorfosi accelerate del genere popolare nelle esperienze estetiche fortemente innovative degli ultimi quarant’anni, come spiega Manuel Barrero (Universidad de Valencia) in «Transformacio- nes del cómic en España en el siglo XXI»; mentre il periodo di transizio- ne degli anni Settanta-Novanta è contraddistinto da rielaborazioni talora efficaci (in luogo delle precedenti forme di mediocre nazionalizzazione) di formule di importazione, che prevedono anche l’Italia e Bonelli come efficace referente ‘latino’, oppure oscillanti dalla riscrittura parodistica dei comics americani all’interno dei media e del cinema indipendente (Francesco Cesari, «Da Lucky, el intrépido a Sor Vampiria. Jesús Franco regista a fumetti»), alla scoperta del manga giapponese (Miguel Ángel Biblioteca di Rassegna iberistica 4 DOI 10.14277/6969-146-1/RiB-4-0 | Submission 2017-03-03 ISBN [ebook] 978-88-6969-146-1 | ISBN [print] 978-88-6969-145-4 | © 2017 7 Historieta o Cómic, 7-10 Pérez-Gómez, Universidad de Sevilla, «El manga español: desarrollo y evolución a través de la recepción del manga en España»). Sulla trasmi- grazione della historieta ispanoamericana in seno alla nuova novela gráfica spagnola si sofferma Veronica Orazi (Università di Torino), «Il mondo in un fumetto. Las aventuras de Juan sin tierra di Javier de Isusi», mentre il nuovo genere della Docuficción apre ai contenuti più dolorosi e ancora discussi della storia recente, sfruttando le risorse grafiche allo scopo di esplorare la memoria e creare identità democratica e coscienza europea (Ruben Varillas, «La novela gráfica española y la memoria recuperada»). I necessari approfondimenti a queste di linee di ricerca si propongono nella seconda parte del volume, corredato da immagini di notevole impatto visivo: Paola Bellomi (Università di Verona), «De los comics a los cómix: historia de una mutación genética»; Luz Celestina Souto (Universidad de Valencia), «Carlos Giménez y la historieta responsable»; Daniel Gómez Salamanca (Independent Scholar), «La influencia de la novela gráfica en la industria del cómic española»; Felice Gambin (Università di Verona), «Las figuras y los signos de la memoria en Paco Roca». Nel complesso la massa critica delle interpretazioni proposte conden- sa quei fattori di sviluppo che determinano a tutt’oggi l’attualità della novela gráfica in Spagna incardinandone l’affermazione come genere editoriale in concomitanza con l’elaborazione di materiale ibrido, a metà strada tra pseudoautobiografia, romanzo famigliare e memoria storico- politica, e quindi con la riscrittura di icone

  • Truth, Justice, and the American Way in Franco's Spain
    Truth, Justice, and the American Way in Franco’s Spain LOUIE DEAN VALENCIA-GARCÍA When Superman first arrived to fascist Spain from the planet “Crypton” in 1940, a year after the end of the Spanish Civil War, he was clad in yellow tights and a red and blue cape—the colors of the recently fallen Spanish Republic—and was known as “Ciclón, el Superhombre,” or “Cyclone, the Superman.” Initially failing to find a fan base in Spain, Ciclón disappeared after three years of sporadic publication. Early attempts by Spanish publishers to print Superman comics were censored for having either attacked Catholic dogma, morality, the church, the regime (or its institutions), or those whom had collaborated with the regime,1 thus leaving publication of such superhero genre comic books primarily to foreign printers. Despite his appearance throughout the 1940s in the less popular Argentine children’s magazines Bil- liken and La Pandilla, it was not until the regular publication of Superman’s 1950’s reincarnation, translated and published by the Mexican press Editorial Novaro,2 that the American icon was broadly popularized in Spain.3 While the Spanish importation of the American superhero certainly reflected American cultural imperialism of the post-war era, the fascist regime in Spain was especially aware of the capacity for Superman comics’ pluralistic tropes to subvert Francoist constructions of society, sexuality, and gender roles. Spain’s heroes were supposed to be José Antonio de Rivera, the founder and martyr of the fascist party in Spain, and the authoritarian dictator Fran- cisco Franco, who ruled Spain from 1939 until his death in 19754; there was no room in that mythology for an American superhero.

  • – Cultural History Records & Cultural Heritage?
    – Cultural History Records & Cultural Heritage? Conference 1–2 October 2015 at Uppsala University – Campus Gotland, Visby Welcome address by Olle Jansson, Adviser to the Vice-Chancellor, Uppsala University, Michel F. Scholz, Uppsala University and Marinette Fogde, Museum of Work I: Cultural History Records & Cultural Heritage Key Note: Comics as a Cultural Record between Humorous and Serious Representation Jane Chapman, Lincoln University Comics themselves are a ‘democratic’ art form – both as popular culture and in their use by social movements. As a cultural record they should be included in the palette of primary sources that academics use for the study of the past – especially unknown or neglected contemporary strips. Using a range of examples, this keynote presentation demonstrates how both humorous and serious comics can be analysed according to four different categories of cultural record. Similarly, humour theory helps our understanding of light-hearted comics, which were sometimes created as a diversion from violence and death in war time. Between humorous and serious representation a liminal space exists that is sometimes populated by comics as an important form of collective identity. Jane Chapman is professor of communications at the University of Lincoln (UK), research associate at Wolfson College, Cambridge, and visiting professor at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. Her current research is on soldiers’ own cartoons and comics produced during 1914-18 and the aftermaths. Jane is the author of more than thirty articles and book chapters and ten books on media history, documentary, broadcast journalism. She specialises in illustrative and comparative 20th century newspaper communications in France and in the British dominions of India, Australia Canada.

  • Introduction
    Introduction Anne Magnussen Abstract Spanish comics represent an exciting and diverse field, but with few excep- tions they are unknown to most comics scholars outside of Spain. This is one important reason behind choosing the subject for not only one but two special issues of European Comic Art. Another reason is the opportunity to draw attention to the extensive comics research in Spanish, and a third is that a national comics focus such as this one contributes to two perspectives within comics research that are very much in vogue, namely transnational studies and memory studies. The six articles included in this issue contrib- ute in different ways to one or all three of these concerns and, despite their necessarily limited number, represent a surprisingly broad spectrum of historical periods, genres and themes. Keywords: children’s comics, Galician comics, historical comics, new memory comics, social criticism, Spanish comics scholarship This is the first of two special issues of European Comic Art dedicated to Spanish comics. Such a national focus may seem irrelevant, as all comics move beyond national borders and relate to comics from dif- ferent places and countries in style, trends and traditions.1 Moreover, the comics industry and comics audiences have been international or transnational phenomena for a considerable part of comics history, including those of Spain. In the case of Spanish comics, a common language unites the Spanish and Latin American comics and markets, but interactions with European (mostly Italian and Franco-Belgian) comics, US comics and, more recently, Asian comics and manga are also at work. These features invite studies that move beyond the nation state and focus on comics and readers as part of ‘multidirectional flows of peoples, 1 ‘Comic’ is used here as a general term (including comic strips, series, books, and graphic novels).

  • The Sequential Art of Memory: the Testimonial Struggle of Comics in Spain
    © 11 The Sequential Art of Memory: The Testimonial Struggle of Comics in Spain Ana Merino Brittany Tullis In a 2010 article about the Holocaust in Spanish memory, philosopher Reyes Mate affirms that “[m]emory always quotes a higher price” (15) and that memories concerning the Spanish Civil War have flourished in contemporary Spain with an intensity never seen before. He argues that along with the memory of a brutally divided past, there also came criticism of the Spanish Transition and accusations of political amnesia. Mate alludes to the tension surrounding the ways in which both literature and politics relate to the past, and how historical memory has come to have a growing resonance. At the same time, he is cognizant of the fact that “memory opens wounds and makes living together more complicated” (16). While the predominant role of memory has been of critical interest to many historians, Mate’s concern, in line with that of historian Santos Juliá, is its political implementation. In terms of concrete examples relating specifically to Spain, Mate invokes the theoretical perspectives of thinkers such as Walter Benjamin and Maurice Halbwachs. Moreover, in the search for a definition of memory, he was confronted by several answers. Memory can be said to be connected to the hermeneutic activity of making the invisible visible, and it can also be defined as justice. At the same time, this relationship between memory and justice makes uncomfortable those historians who believe that it is not a question of judging events, but of understanding their internal logic. On his part, Mate highlights the importance of memory for recognizing injustice, for, as he claims, “[w]ithout the memory of injustice there can be no justice” (27).

    The Eighth International Graphic Novel, Comics Conference and Bandes Dessinées Society Conference Borders- Identity, Difference and Representation Monday 26th to Friday 30th June 2017 University of Dundee & University of Glasgow Welcome to Scotland! We have chosen the theme of borders this year. The border distinguishes one space or concept from another whether geopolitical, physical, psychological, ideological or temporal. As such it is a potent phenomenon in contemporary culture where invasion, contestation and negotiation of borders signal inclusion/exclusion or conflict. Geopolitical borders might deal with the imaginary lines on the map that distinguish one territory from another; immigration; citizenship; national and regional borders; sites of ownership; the topography of a space that can inhibit or prohibit; and the marks on the landscape made to claim one territory from another. Temporal borders include the construction of history through historical categories such as the Golden Age or the Silver Age, or the annotation of time in the comics medium. Conceptually and aesthetically one can also explore the border on the comics page, through the variable or imaginary lines that define panels or the page. Narratively speaking, comics blur borders, including genre, such as the constant evolution of the superhero. The medium also plays with the borders between modes of expression, as sound becomes visible; words become drawn; and the material becomes digital. In turn, we can ask whether there are borders between the terms ‘comic’, ‘graphic novel’, ‘sequential art’, ‘manga’, or ‘bande dessinée’? The body too has its borders: the inside and outside; gendered and racial identities; human versus animal or machine; dead versus alive.

    Disability Studies and Spanish Culture: Films, Novels, the Comic and the Public Exhibition LUP, Fraser, Disability Studies and Spanish Culture.indd 1 18/02/2013 15:30:07 REPRESENTATIONS: HEALT H , DI SA BI L I T Y, CULTURE AND SOCIETY Series Editor Stuart Murray, University of Leeds This series provides a ground-breaking and innovative selection of titles that showcase the newest interdisciplinary research on the cultural representations of health and disability in the contemporary social world. Bringing together both subjects and working methods from literary studies, film and cultural studies, medicine and sociology, ‘Representations’ is scholarly and accessible, addressed to researchers across a number of academic disciplines, and prac- titioners and members of the public with interests in issues of public health. The key term in the series will be representations. Public interest in ques- tions of health and disability has never been stronger, and as a consequence cultural forms across a range of media currently produce a never-ending stream of narratives and images that both reflect this interest and generate its forms. The crucial value of the series is that it brings the skilled study of cultural narratives and images to bear on such contemporary medical concerns. It offers and responds to new research paradigms that advance understanding at a scholarly level of the interaction between medicine, culture and society; it also has a strong commitment to public concerns surrounding such issues, and maintains a tone and point of address
