GROUPE DE LECTURE #2 ASTERIX ET CLEOPATRE RENÉ GOSCINNY ALBERT UDERZO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1z-Lrxa8VY The writer: RENÉ GOSCINNY 14 August 1926 – 5 November 1977 1959: He founded the French humour magazine Pilote Scriptwriter of several other French comic strips, such as: Lucky Luke Le Petit Nicolas Iznogoud 1967: He was made a Chevalier of Arts and Letters The illustrator: ALBERT UDERZO Born 25 April 1927 1940: At only 14, he is accepted to La Société Parisienne d'édition where he learns the basics of his job as an illustrator. He publishes his first illustration, a parody of Le Corbeau et le Renard (La Fontaine) in the magazine Junior. 1979: He continues the adventures of Asterix and Obelix alone and creates “Les Éditions Albert René” Illustrator of several other French comic strips, such as: Oumpah-Pah Tanguy et Laverdure Benjamin, Benjamine Astérix et Obélix Sixth book in the Asterix comic book series First published in serial form in Pilote magazine (from issue #215 – 5 Dec. 1963 to issue #257 – 24 Sept. 1964) The comic book was then published in 1965 It contains many anachronisms, the most important being the Military Campaign of Julius Caesar in Egypt in 47 BC (and not 50 BC as mentioned in the book) Another “mistake” is that Cleopatra is represented as an Oriental woman when she was Greek. The album has been adapted as a cartoon in 1968 (Astérix et Cléopâtre) And as a movie in 2002 (Astérix & Obélix: Mission Cléopâtre) After an argument in which César belittles the accomplishments of the Egyptian people, especially concerning buildings and constructions, Cléopâtre bets that her people can build a new palace in Alexandrie within three months. She then designates Numérobis who claims to be the best architect in Egypt, to be the architect for this ambitious project. If he fails, he will be a meal for the sacred crocodiles; if he succeeds, he will be covered with gold. Numérobis knows he will not be able to so he decides to ask his friends Les Gaulois for their help and travels to talk to Panoramix, the druid. They accept and Astérix, Obélix, Idéfix and Panoramix travel back to Egypt with him. Of course, they are offered the same deal by Cléopâtre: gold or crocodiles! As they walk to Numérobis’ home, they are quite surprised by his “creations” as an architect, which make them realize the challenge they accepted!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1z-Lrxa8VY 18’40” – 20’ As Numérobis’ rival, Amonbofils is very jealous, he tries to sabotage the construction by all possible ways, wth the help of his fellow Tournevis. In order to boost the Egyptian workers and get them back to work, Panoramix prepares the magic potion (made of secret ingredients and which is LE secret des Gaulois!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1z-Lrxa8VY 24’30” – 25’30” … and everything changes! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-8cyImYoU8 Amonbofils gets more and more mad and keeps inventing new stratagems to impede the building of the palace and have Numérobis and his friends thrown to the crocodiles. He tries to frame the Gauls by sending a poisoned cake to Cléopâtre, but Panoramix makes an antidote enabling Les Gaulois to eat it, then cures the taster and claims eating too much rich food was giving him a bad stomach. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shi9C368X0s Amonbofis is kidnapped and hidden in a sarcophagus, but Obélix frees him. Amonbofis and Tournevis are forced to work on the palace, but without magic potion. Just before the palace is due to be completed, César sends a spy who sees the effects of the magic potion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1z-Lrxa8VY 5’25” – 51’55” Therefore, he orders the commanding officer to proceed to shell the building with his catapults since César’s army cannot fight the men who drank the magic potion. In desperation, Astérix and Panoramix deliver the news to Cleopatra. Cléopâtre is furious and hurries to the construction site to catch César red- handed. His legions are ordered to fix the damage they caused, without any magic potion to help them, and the palace is successfully completed on time. Cléopâtre wins her bet, as well as Numérobis, who is covered of gold. He eventually reconciles with Amonbofis and they agree to build pyramids together. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1z-Lrxa8VY 1h7’50”.

  • Chapter One Introduction

    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.
  • Rene Goscinny WHERES ASTERIX

    Rene Goscinny WHERES ASTERIX

    Goscinny was reared and educated in Buenos Aires and later worked on children’s books in New York City. In 1954 he returned to Paris to direct a press agency and soon became a writer for the “Lucky Luke” comic strip. In (14 August 1926 – 5 November 1977) 1957 he met Uderzo, a cartoonist, and collaborated with him on the short-lived “Benjamin et Benjamine” and, a year later, on the somewhat more successful “Oumpah-Pah le Peau-Rouge” (“Oumpah-Pah the Redskin”). In 1959 Goscinny founded the French humour magazine Pilote, and at the same time, in collaboration with Uderzo, began publishing “Astérix le Gaulois,” a comic strip that concerned itself with the adventures of a diminutive Gallic tribesman at the time of Caesar’s conquest of Gaul. The title character, Astérix, and his friend Obélix belonged to the only unconquered tribe, the “Invincible Gauls.” The Romans they opposed were generally made to look stupid and clumsy. Coinciding as it did with Charles de Gaulle’s rise to power in France, the strip reflected certain political sentiments that were widespread at the time. “Astérix le Gaulois” became widely popular and brought substantial success to both Goscinny and Uderzo. Goscinny was the scriptwriter of several other French comic strips, including “Les Dingodossiers” (1965–67), with Marcel Gotlib, and also was a principal in a French publishing firm. He was made a Chevalier of Arts and Letters in 1967. The “Astérix” strip was translated into 15 languages, and after its appearance in book form (1959) it sold more than 18,000,000 copies world- wide.

    Producing Popularity: the Success in France of the Comics Series "Astérix Le Gaulois" Eliza Bourque Dandridge Thesis

    Producing Popularity: The Success in France of the Comics Series "Astérix le Gaulois" Eliza Bourque Dandridge Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree of Master of Arts in History (European Area Studies) Dr. Fabrice G. Teulon, Chair Dr. Sue W. Farquhar Dr. E. Thomas Ewing April 30, 2008 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Astérix, comics, bande dessinée, production of culture, branding, popularity, appeal Copyright 2008 Eliza Bourque Dandridge. All rights reserved. Producing Popularity: The Success in France of the Comics Series "Astérix le Gaulois" Eliza Bourque Dandridge ABSTRACT: This study examines the rise in popularity of the French comics series "Astérix le Gaulois" through a production-of-culture lens in an effort to uncover how industry evolution and organization, protectionist legislation, marketing, advertising, branding, and consecration by the media worked interdependently to catapult Astérix, the series' protagonist, into stardom by the middle of the 1960s. In so doing, this study forcefully argues that elements external to the text itself greatly facilitated, and in some ways determined, the series' quick and dramatic rise in popularity in France by 1966. The predominance of American and Belgian comics into the 1950s and the moral turn towards all things "100 % français" enabled the success of Pilote, the French- language, French-themed magazine launched in 1959 and in which "Astérix" first appeared. By the early 1960s, Pilote's faithful readership helped make the publication of "Astérix" in album format a resounding success. Simultaneous radio exposure and extensive product merchandising further promoted "Astérix" to a new, vast, and diverse comics market comprised of children and adults alike.

Cleopatra - The Power Clash; An Analysis of The Characteristics of the Historical Couple Portrayed in Asterix KEYWORDS N. MEERA II. M.A. ENGLISH LITERATURE, ST. JOSEPH’S COLLEGE, TIRUCHIRAPALLI ABSTRACT Literature reflects our life and comics reflect the lifestyle of our society. Our creativity develops when we visualize things. This concept of visualization paved way for comics. A Comic can take a person beyond time and space. Popular comic series like Batman and Superman, takes us beyond the Earth and there are also fantas- tic comics like Asterix, Tintin, etc., that takes us back to trace the history. Asterix is a series of popular French comics. Throwing light upon the protagonist of the series, an imaginary character Asterix and the real historical hero vercingo- terix is the main aspect of this paper. The Asterix books introduce Roman history and also some vital events of France, which was once a colony of Roman Empire. The ambitious king Julius Caesar and his rule over the kingdom are illus- trated sarcastically in this series. Rene Goscinny and Albert Uderzo, the two great minds are the reason for the birth of Asterix. This paper not only shows the unconquerable strength of the people of Gaul but also deals with the most popular historical couple Julius Caesar and Cleopatra. Introduction: appear in this series are portrayed as models showcasing A combination of images and ideas with oodles of hu- the true valour of Gaul people.

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.
