Zobaczcie, jakie atrakcje znajdziecie w wybranych krajach Unii Europejskiej. Dobrej zabawy! Stacja pierwsza: Belgia Belgia Królestwo Belgii leży w północno-zachodniej Europie. Podzielone jest na trzy strefy językowe: francuską, niderlandzką i niemiecką. Frank belgijski został zastąpiony przez euro w 2002 r. Stolica Stolicą kraju jest Bruksela, która jest również siedzibą Unii Europejskiej i Parlamentu Europejskiego, gdzie najczęściej rozbrzmiewa hymn Unii Europejskiej. Bruksela to miasto obfitujące w muzea, targowiska, restauracje, a Stary Rynek jest jednym z najpiękniejszych średniowiecznych rynków w Europie. Atomium – model kryształu żelaza. Wielki Plac w Brukseli. Muzea Dla turystów lubiących zwiedzać muzea, ale niekoniecznie te ze sztuką, Brugia też ma coś do zaoferowania. Można wstąpić do Muzeum Diamentów, Muzeum Frytek, czy Muzeum Czekolady. Muzeum Diamentów w Antwerpii https://youtu.be/n5nNHC9dpKg Muzeum Czekolady Antwerpii Muzeum Frytek w Brugii na północy Belgii Komiksy Częścią dziedzictwa Belgii są komiksy, a w całym kraju spotykamy wiele sklepów specjalizujących się w ich sprzedaży. Belgia jest miejscem narodzin słynnej serii komiksów Smerfy (Pierre Culliford) i The Adventures of Tintin (Herge), przy czym ten ostatni został przetłumaczony na ponad 100 języków. Czekolada Jednym z głównych produktów eksportowych Belgii jest czekolada. Belgia produkuje czekoladę od prawie 400 lat – pierwsze dowody produkcji czekolady w Belgii pochodzą z 1635 roku. Obecnie Belgia produkuje ponad 173000 ton czekolady rocznie i posiada około 2000 sklepów z czekoladą. Ciekawostki Najdłuższą linią tramwajową na świecie jest belgijski tramwaj jadący z Wybrzeża do Kusttram – przejeżdża 68 km przez Belgię.

  • 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).

  • Ligne-Claire.Pdf
    neuviemeart2.0 > dictionnaire esthétique et thématique de la bande dessinée > ligne claire ligne claire par Thierry Groensteen [Novembre 2013] Baptisée en 1977 par Joost Swarte à la faveur du catalogue d’une exposition présentée à Rotterdam, la klare lijn − en français : ligne claire – désigne, au sens le plus restrictif, le style d’Hergé, et, dans son acception la plus large, une mouvance aux contours assez flous regroupant de nombreux artistes de bande dessinée et illustrateurs animés par un même souci d’épure, de lisibilité, une même confiance dans le cerne, le trait net et la couleur en aplat. La bande dessinée a toujours privilégié le dessin au trait, qui a l’avantage d’être rapide d’exécution et de se prêter parfaitement aux exigences de la reproduction, quel que soit le support. Dans le Livre Troisième de son traité Réflexions et menus propos d’un peintre genevois, Rodolphe Töpffer exprimait déjà « la prééminence du trait sur les deux autres moyens, le relief et la couleur, quant à ce qui caractérise l’imitation ». À lui seul, en se concentrant sur le contour, « il représente l’objet d’une façon suffisante, sinon complète ». Des trois moyens d’imitation, le trait est celui « qui dit le plus rapidement les choses les plus claires à notre intelligence, et qui rappelle le plus spontanément les objets ». Cela vient − précisera Töpffer dans l’Essai de physiognomonie (1848) − « de ce qu’il ne donne de l’objet que ses caractères essentiels, en supprimant ceux qui sont accessoires » (matières, modelés, demi-tons, détails, contrastes dus à l’éclairage, etc.).

  • Tintin and the Adventure of Transformative and Critical Fandom
    . Volume 17, Issue 2 November 2020 Tintin and the adventure of transformative and critical fandom Tem Frank Andersen & Thessa Jensen, Aalborg University, Denmark Abstract: Using Roland Barthes’ and John Fiske’s notion of the readerly, writerly, and producerly text, this article provides an analysis and a tentative categorization of chosen transformative, fanmade texts for the comic book series The Adventures of Tintin. The focus is on the critical transformation of, and engagement with, the original text by academics, professional fans, and fans of popular culture. The analysis identifies different ways of transformational engagement with the original text: ranging from the academic writerly approach of researchers, over professional fans rewriting and critically engaging with the original text, to fanfiction fans reproducing heteroromantic tropes in homoerotic stories, fans of popular culture using Tintin figurines to document their own travels, and finally, fans who use Tintin covers as a way to express critical political sentiments. With Barthes and Fiske these groups are defined by their way of approaching the original text, thus working either in a readerly producerly or writerly producerly way, depending on how critical and political the producerly attitude is in regard to the original text. Keywords: The Adventures of Tintin, fan albums, fanfiction, fan communities; readerly, writerly, producerly reception Introduction In recent years, it has been quiet around the forever young reporter Tintin and his faithful friends Snowy and Captain Haddock. A motion capture movie about three of Tintin’s adventures failed to garner a larger following, despite having Steven Spielberg as the director (The Adventures of Tintin, Columbia Pictures, 2011).

ISBN: Note: English text in booklet attached to the Tintin and Alph-Art of the front cover. Title: Tintin's last adventure: Tintin and alph-art. While in town, Captain Haddock saw Castafiore. In order to avoid her, he dashed into the nearest doorway. Little did the Captain know that he was walking into the Fourcart Gallery where an exhibition of Ramo Nash's Alph-art was being held - precisely the place where Castafiore was heading! Unable to escape, the Captain met the gallery's owner and Castafiore, the latter talked him into buying a piece of Alph-art, a letter H in perspex. While in the gallery, Mr Fourcart mentioned to Haddock his wish to see Tintin about an important matter. Later, before he could see Tintin, Fourcart met an untimely death. Tintin suspected that Fourcart's death was linked with the recent deaths of other famous art dealers. Tintin's investigation led him to the Tintin and Alph-Art belonging to Endaddine, a famous Cult leader, and a friend of Castafiore. The villa turned out to be a factory for faking old Masterpieces. Soon after discovering this criminal Tintin and Alph-Art, Tintin found himself a prisoner of Endaddine's, dreading the prospect Tintin and Alph-Art becoming the next piece of Alph-art Endaddine planned to pour liquid polyester over Tintin.

Supervisor: Brad Vice, Ph.D. The object of this undergraduate thesis is to map the development of sequential art, comics, in the form of respectable art form influencing contemporary other artistic areas. Modern comics were developed between the World Wars primarily in the United States of America and therefore became a typical part of American culture. The thesis is divided into three major parts. The first part called Sequential Art as a Medium discusses in brief the history of sequential art, which dates back to ancient world. The chapter continues with two sections analyzing the comic medium from the theoretical point of view. The second part inquires the origin of the comic book industry, its cultural environment, and consequently the birth of modern comic book.
