Degas and Cassatt - The Dance of Solitude (2021)

Founder of the Impressionist movement of which he was one of the most merciless critics, too bohemian for the bourgeois and too bourgeois for the artists, Edgar Degas was a man of many paradoxes. A loner, he loved only one woman without ever courting her. Looking into this unique relationship at the twilight of Degas’ life, Efa and Rubio open the pages of the artist’s notebooks hoping to unravel the mystery of this genius full of contradictions (Europe Comics: 95 pages).

Diosamante (2012)

Diosamante the queen falls passionately in love with a king. To prove themselves worthy, she began a long journey in search of perfection. The kingdom of Arhas is run by the iron fist of Queen Diosamante. This queen without pity is known as much for her cruelty as for her incredible beauty. This is why mighty warriors do not hesitate to take part in fatal combats whose only aim is to share one night of love with the legendary Diosamante…only to be killed by her very hands at the time of the winter solstice. The reputation of Urbal de Sarabba will one day challenge the pride of the young queen. This king is said to be wiser, more powerful, and loved by his people. Furious, the intrepid beauty will go in search of this man who dares cast a shadow over her. Having barely arrived at the palace of Urbal, their meeting will take an unexpected turn: the two sovereigns will fall madly in love with each other.

 

Master of the Ninth Art : Bandes Dessinées and Franco-Belgian Identity

Although virtually unknown in the US and the UK, the bande dessin e is a vitally important aspect of popular culture in France and Belgium, where it is known as 'the ninth art'. Masters of the Ninth Art offers an introduction to bandes dessin es for English readers, considering examples of the genre from Herg 's Adventures of Tintin (1929) up to the late twentieth century. The strips are considered in terms of plot, style, influences and the wider context of Franco-Belgian culture, and they range from literary parody, gag-humour, westerns and realism to science fiction and historical drama. Screech analyses the work of a variety of artists, some well known to English-speakers such as Goscinny, some less well known such as Jacques Tardi and Marcel Gotlib.
