Cham The Best Comic Strips and Graphic Novelettes, 1839?1862【電子書籍】[ David Kunzle ]＞△▼2492 - 隠れ家エステ

＜p＞Cham, real name Count Am?d?e de No? and a serious rival to Daumier, may have been the epitome of a ＜em＞c?l?bre inconnu＜/em＞, a famous unknown. He is one much deserving, at last, of this first account of his huge oeuvre as a caricaturist.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book concentrates on his mastery of the important newcomer to the field of caricature, which we call comic strip, picture story, and graphic novel. The volume features facsimiles of nearly twenty of these from 1839 to 1863 and ranging from one page to forty (this last a parody of Victor Hugo’s ＜em＞Les Mis?rables＜/em＞). In addition, summaries and sample illustrations of twenty-seven “minor works” demonstrate that Cham is by far the most important specialist of what was then a new genre in Europe.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Born to an ancient aristocratic family, Cham was from early on wholly dedicated to an art considered far beneath his class. Starting as a disciple of the father of the modern comic strip, Swiss Rodolphe T?pffer, Cham soon launched out on his own, evolving an original form of comedy, his own ＜em＞com?die humaine＜/em＞, farcical, absurd, and parodic. His productivity was legendary and comprised all the known genres of caricature, the full-page cartoon lithograph, the thematic seasonal group, weekly and monthly humorous comment (much like the daily newspaper cartoonist today), and a feature called the ＜em＞Revue Comique,＜/em＞ which made him the supreme graphic journalist of his day.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hitherto unknown correspondence reveals an attractive personality who was fond of animals and who honored a low-class woman he eventually made his countess. Vaunted comics scholar David Kunzle has created a fitting tribute to Cham’s impact and genius.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。・・・楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
