Pour un chien jaune
| Resumo: | This article is dedicated to the study, in the history of cinema and through selected examples (De Sica, Hawks, DeMille, Kim Ki-Duk, Tarkovsky, Ozu), of the ways in which the filmic mightness can seize the joint representation of man and dog. Three categories will stand out in particular: 1 / the "anthropological" dog associated with human virtues or vices and symbolizing a distinctive moral state of mankind; 2 / the "anthropomorphological" dog qua a symptom of the human body as an animal and pathic body; 3 / the "anthropocephalic" dog, the man like a dog with a man's head, which culminates in the canine qualification of the camera. These categories, obviously permeable to each other, intend to draw a first aesthetic access to the symbiotic representation of the human species and the animal. |
