T H I S I S a C a L L F O R H E KYUNGEUN PARK - JOSEPH SAFIEDDINE THIS IS A CALL FOR HELP My name is Gabriel El Chatawi, I’m 20 years old. As I write you, I am scared to death. My mother, my father, my sister and my brother, who went to Tyre, in southern Lebanon, on vacation, are now detained there, trapped by the bombs of the Israeli army. They have sought shelter in the Christian neighborhood, and to date have no hope of being evacuated. My brother, a hemophiliac, is in grave danger, for there is no way for him to get the medication he needs for his condition. Even my father, who is used to war, could not have predicted such a chaotic situation. I count the hours and the minutes as I wait for news from them. My family is French and deserves its country’s protection. The Republic cannot KYUNGEUN PARK - JOSEPH SAFIEDDINE abandon members of its community to fate and the horrors of war.

  • Belgique Francophone, Terre De B.D
    Belgique francophone, terre de B.D. François Pierlot Frantseseko lektorea / Lector de francés Laburpena Komikien historia Suitzan hasi zen 1827an, Rodolphe Töpffer-ek “litera- tura iruditan” deiturikoa sortu zuenean. Printzipioa sinplea da: istorio bat kontatzen du marrazki bidez, eta istorioa azaltzeko testuak eransten ditu. Hogei urte geroago, Wilhelm Bush alemaniarrak Max und Moritz sortu zuen, marrazkietan dinamismo handia zuen umorezko komikia. Gero, batez ere egunkarietan agertzen hasi ziren komikiak. Eguneroko prentsak ere gero eta arrakasta handiagoa zuenez, komikiak Europa osora za- baldu ziren. Egunkarientzat oso garrantzitsua zen komiki onak izatea, irakur- le asko erakartzen zituztelako. Erresuma Batuan ere arrakasta izan zuten ko- mikiek. AEBtik, bestalde, koloretako argitalpenak iristen hasi ziren, testuen ordez bunbuiloak zituztenak. Belgikan, 1929an hasi ziren komikiak argitaratzen, Le petit vingtième haurrentzako egunkarian. Apaiz oso kontserbadore bat zen erredakzioburua, eta umeei komunisten alderako gorrotoa barneratzeko pertsonaia asmatzeko eskatu zion Hergé marrazkilari gazteari. Horrela sortu zen Tintin. Lehenengo aleak Tintin sobieten herrialdean zuen izenburua. Hergék bere pertsonaiaren «gobernua» hartu baino lehen, ideologiaz beteriko beste bi abentura ere izan ziren (Tintin Kongon eta Tintin Amerikan). Tintinekin hasitako goraldiaren ondoren, beste marrazki-aldizkari bel- gikar batzuk sortu ziren; besteak beste, Bravo! agerkaria. Komiki belgikarrak 1940ko hamarkadatik aurrera nagusitu ziren mundu frantsestunean, bi agerkari zirela bitarte: Le Journal Tintin eta Le Journal de Spirou, hurrenez hurren, Hergé eta Franquin marrazkilari zirela. Bi astekariek talentu gazteak hartu zituzten, aukera bat emateko. Komikien ibilbidea finka- tu zuten, klasizismo mota bat ezarrita. Journal de Spirou izenekoa 1938an sortu zuen Dupuis argitaletxeak, eta umorea landu zuen. Pertsonaiek oso jatorrak dirudite, grafismo biribilari esker (horregatik aipatzen da “sudur lodiaren” estiloa).

In contrast to scholars who situate popular genres outside of political thinking, or conversely read the “messages” of popular and especially children’s literatures homogeneously as ideology, I argue that BD adventures, including Westerns, engaged openly and variously with contemporary geopolitical conflicts. Chapter 1 relates the early popularity of wilderness and desert stories in both the United States and France to shared histories and myths of territorial expansion, colonization, and settlement.

Résumé : La bombe d'Hiroshima, premier engin atomique lancé sur une population civile, n'a pas seulement marqué à jamais la psyché japonaise : elle a aussi reconfiguré la flèche du temps pour l'ensemble de notre monde. C'est à l'exploration de cette ombre historique, projetée sur le plus commercial des médiums artistiques, le manga, qu'invite Pierre Pigot : comment des mangakas comme Miyazaki, Matsumoto ou Nakazawa ont forgé une esthétique capable de donner une apparence aux lourds fantômes de l'histoire ; comment, du Voyage de Ryû à L'Ecole emportée, et de Princesse Mononoké à Albator, les mangas et dessins-animés ont exploré ces secrets de l'histoire humaine et ces hantises de la catastrophe, qui peuplent les coulisses de l'art depuis soixante ans ; comment, enfin, un manga aussi populaire aujourd'hui que One Piece dissimule au cœur de ses milliers de pages une idée secrète capable de nous donner les clés pour lutter contre cette prégnance de l'apocalypse.
