Lettera a Bertrand Cantat
Author: Francesca Mazzucato
language: it
Publisher: GIRALDI EDITORE
Release Date: 2013-12-18
Un romanzo inusuale, appassionato e controcorrente dedicato al cantante dei Noir Desir Betrand Cantat. Le sue canzoni, liriche struggenti, dolorosa incarnazione del nostro tempo di emarginazione, rabbia, poesia e bisogno d'amore, la storia della sua relazione appassionata con Marie Trintignant e la tragedia di Vilnius dopo un violento litigio seguita dalla morte della donna che lui tanto amava e per la quale aveva abbandonato tutto, il carcere prima in Lituania e poi in Francia, il lento e faticoso tentativo di ricostruirsi una vita riprendendo a cantare con l'uscita di due nuove. Sulla tragedia di Vilnius sono stati scritti diversi libri, soprattutto in Francia, ma questo è senz'altro il primo romanzo che arriva ad abbracciare i più recenti fatti di attualità che hanno toccato Bertrand Cantat. Che evoca sempre odi laceranti e un amore che sfocia in venerazione fra i fan. Epica di un destino tragico, sotto forma di lettera interpolata da flash back sugli eventi giudiziari, le polemiche e i fatti, basato anche su alcune testimonianze di persone vicine al cantante, avute dall'autrice di prima mano, la storia ha lo stile carnale e appassionato tipico dei romanzi di Francesca Mazzucato, interpolata da brani delle sue canzoni, con ampia appendice di citazioni e la discografia del gruppo. Questo romanzo, è, in ogni caso, soprattutto una dichiarazione d'amore. D'amore vero. Una dichiarazione d'amore che scinde fra la creazione e il creatore, che si avventura nei territori della perdizione, del desiderio, dell'amour fou, di ciò che poteva essere e non è stato, del desiderio che si fa dolore.
Scary Monsters
Author: Mark Duffett

Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
Release Date: 2021-01-14
Popular music and masculinity have rarely been examined through the lens of research into monstrosity. The discourses associated with rock and pop, however, actually include more 'monsters' than might at first be imagined. Attention to such individuals and cultures can say things about the operation of genre and gender, myth and meaning. Indeed, monstrosity has recently become a growing focus of cultural theory. This is in part because monsters raise shared concerns about transgression, subjectivity, agency, and community. Attention to monstrosity evokes both the spectre of projection (which invokes familial trauma and psychoanalysis) and shared anxieties (that in turn reflect ideologies and beliefs). By pursuing a series of insightful case studies, Scary Monsters considers different aspects of the connection between music, gender and monstrosity. Its argument is that attention to monstrosity provides a unique perspective on the study of masculinity in popular music culture.
An Anthology of French and Francophone Singers from A to Z

Every musical form has had an impact on the linguistic practices of our society. French song is a vector of cultural, social, and stylistic values. Throughout the world, songs in the French language are used in the teaching of French: professors incorporate songs into the curriculum in order to illustrate differences of register and linguistic variation, as well as to raise lexical or grammatical questions. As a form of popular expression, song is a genre that has, in recent years, become the focus of serious academic scholarship and criticism. However, few linguists have paid attention to French song and its linguistic uses. This richly illustrated mini-dictionary about French singers fills this gap by offering a collection of portraits of the greatest singers of the French language and how they have constructed the musical landscape in both France and the larger francophone community and the world as a whole. Through (re)discovering these classic and contemporary artists who contribute to the creation of the sonorous universe of the 20th and 21st centuries, the volume determines how these musical genres influence the French language and nourish our collective imagination. By plunging into francophone song, one can achieve a better understanding of the culture and the language of its speakers.
