Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references
"This book presents a collection of key theoretical texts on comics, spanning a period
from the 1960s to the 2010s, written in French and never before translated into English.
The publication brings a distinctive set of authors together uniting theoretical scholars,
artists, journalists, and comics critics. Readers will gain access to important debates
that have taken place among major French-language comics scholars, including Thierry
Groensteen, Benoît Peeters, Jan Baetens, and Pierre Fresnault-Deruelle, over the
past fifty years. The collection covers a broad range of approaches to the medium,
including historical, formal, sociological, philosophical, and psychoanalytic. A general
introduction provides an overall context, and, in addition, each of the five thematic
sections is prefaced by a brief summary of each text and an explanation of how they
have influenced later work. The translations are faithful to the originals while reading
clearly in English, and, where necessary, cultural references are clarified"--Provided
