Book Description
Many studies focus on film in Africa. Few, however, study cinema as a leisure activity: one that has influenced several generations and opened up spaces to dream, discuss or contest. Movie theatres offered a break from the daily routine, as places of escape and of education. Cinema was also potentially subversive, offering an alternative to colonial discourse. Tropical Dream Palaces seeks to trace this history in a West African context: of broadening horizons on the one hand, and of censorship and control on the other. It fills a historiographic void, following cinema's arrival in the region in the early twentieth century up until the Independence era, and also looking further afield to Central Africa and its different models. Goerg addresses questions of film distribution in colonial times; of screening venues, their implantation, spread and different categories; while also focusing on audiences, their gender or age; the acquisition of a film culture; and the impact of screening foreign images. Her book draws on extremely varied sources to paint a broad picture of this cinematographic landscape: archives, the accounts of African and European spectators or administrators, novels, autobiographies, the local press, interviews and iconography.

ISBN: 0889274304
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
Un essai, politique, sur l'oralite dans un corpus de films d'Afrique noire francophone de 1950 a 2000. Dans un langage clair, l'auteur illustre comment dans les societes de l'ecriture, le texte engagerait l'Homme et que cette ecriture aurait impose un genre, un style et des modes de production de sens qui sont propres a ces societes de l'ecriture d'ou, par exemple, la naissance du langage cinematographique formalise. Ainsi il se demande ce qui arriverait a une analyse de film calquee sur ce langage dont les articulations discursives ne sont pas necessairement en adequation avec la mysticite de la parole qui, elle, engagerait veritablement l'Homme en Afrique noire? Qu'arrive-t-il a l'analyse quand l'image d'une parole detourne le sens prescrit dans les modes operatoires du langage cinematographique des societes de l'ecrit ? Comment le cinema, a travers la technique audiovisuelle, devient-il une technologie par excellence capable de nous faire voir la nature mystique et culturelle de cette parole ?
