  • The Phenomenological Aesthetics of the French Action Film
    Les Sensations fortes: The phenomenological aesthetics of the French action film DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Matthew Alexander Roesch Graduate Program in French and Italian The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Margaret Flinn, Advisor Patrick Bray Dana Renga Copyrighted by Matthew Alexander Roesch 2017 Abstract This dissertation treats les sensations fortes, or “thrills”, that can be accessed through the experience of viewing a French action film. Throughout the last few decades, French cinema has produced an increasing number of “genre” films, a trend that is remarked by the appearance of more generic variety and the increased labeling of these films – as generic variety – in France. Regardless of the critical or even public support for these projects, these films engage in a spectatorial experience that is unique to the action genre. But how do these films accomplish their experiential phenomenology? Starting with the appearance of Luc Besson in the 1980s, and following with the increased hybrid mixing of the genre with other popular genres, as well as the recurrence of sequels in the 2000s and 2010s, action films portray a growing emphasis on the importance of the film experience and its relation to everyday life. Rather than being direct copies of Hollywood or Hong Kong action cinema, French films are uniquely sensational based on their spectacular visuals, their narrative tendencies, and their presentation of the corporeal form. Relying on a phenomenological examination of the action film filtered through the philosophical texts of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Paul Ricoeur, Mikel Dufrenne, and Jean- Luc Marion, in this dissertation I show that French action cinema is pre-eminently concerned with the thrill that comes from the experience, and less concerned with a ii political or ideological commentary on the state of French culture or cinema.

    Invictus. L'invincibile perdono di Nelson Mandela Pubblicato su gothicNetwork.org (http://www.gothicnetwork.org) Invictus. L'invincibile perdono di Nelson Mandela Articolo di: Livia Bidoli [1] Nelson Mandela fu imprigionato dal 1963 fino al 1990: spese 27 anni in carcere ma riuscì in quello in cui gli stessi sud-africani non credevano, ovvero ad unire l’intero Sud Africa dopo la fine dell’apartheid , la segregazione dei neri da parte dei bianchi. Il film Invictus di Clint Eastwood con Morgan Freeman nella parte dell’incredibilmente somigliante Mandela, ci racconta come una partita di rugby, nel 1995, fece tifare a bianchi e neri la stessa squadra. Tratto dal libro di John Carlin Ama il tuo nemico (Playing the Enemy) edito da Sperling&Kupfer, Invictus, ovvero l’invincibile dedicato a Nelson Mandela, gioca una delle partite più significative del secolo scorso: gli Springbocks sudafricani capitanati da François Pienaar (Matt Damon) affrontano gli All Blacks maori della Nuova Zelanda in un match in cui lo sport giocherà un ruolo unificatore per tutti, i bianchi come i neri. Per la prima volta nella storia del Sud Africa sottomesso dai bianchi ed ora governato dal primo nero della storia a capo dell’ African National Congress, Nelson Mandela, dopo democratiche elezioni (fino ad allora i neri non votavano), bianchi e neri tifano la stessa squadra i cui colori, verde e oro, erano prima amati dai bianchi ed odiati dai neri, come ovvio riferimento all’apartheid ed all’inno che i bianchi afrikaans coniarono per il Sud Africa nero.

  • Charity and Compassion in Luc Besson's Space Operas The
    religions Article Love Thy Extra-Terrestrial Neighbour: Charity and Compassion in Luc Besson’s Space Operas The Fifth Element (1997) and Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017) Sylvie Magerstädt School of Humanities, University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, Herts AL10 9EU, UK; [email protected] Received: 13 August 2018; Accepted: 20 September 2018; Published: 27 September 2018 Abstract: The role of romantic love in cinema–and its redeeming aspects–has been extensively explored in film studies and beyond. However, non-romantic aspects of love, especially love for the neighbour, have not yet received as much attention. This is particularly true when looking at mainstream science fiction cinema. This is surprising as the interstellar outlook of many of these films and consequently the interaction with a whole range of new ‘neighbours’ raises an entirely new set of challenges. In this article, the author explores these issues with regard to Luc Besson’s science fiction spectacles The Fifth Element (1997) and Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017). Both films have divided fans and critics and it is indeed easy to dismiss them as mere spectacle with little depth or message, as many reviewers have done. Yet, as this article demonstrates, beneath their shiny, colourful surface, both films make a distinct contribution to the theme of neighbourly love. What is more, Besson’s films often seem to develop a close link between more common notions of romantic love and agapic forms of love and thus offer a perspective of exploring our relationship to the alien as our neighbour.
