Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Le Triomphe de Jean de La Fontaine: 24 Fables Illustrées par Jean Bastian
This is one of the dearest books in the collection. There are multiple stories connected with it. First, in a visit to Strassbourg that was a veritable roll of the dice, I happened near the end of the visit to walk again past the great cathedral. Facing the cathedral was an antiques store to which I had not paid attention. This time, in the window, I saw an edition -- this edition! -- of fables illustrated by the former owner of this antiques store. Bingo! I had to come back later, because the store opened only after lunch. I had a pleasant chant with the owner, grandson of the former owner and book illustrator. I learned that there was a DVD using his grandfather's illustrations. I bought both the book and the DVD and was delighted to do so. Final story: In the summer of the pandemic, I watched with delight the DVD episodes, which I believe aired on TV one at a time over a space of days and weeks. They are delightfully done. As I reviewed them, I asked myself: "Where is the book?" I looked in many places in the constricted pandemic world. After days of searching, I was again allowed to visit some of the collection's places in the University, and there I found the book. It is time to celebrate, not least of all because of the creative, playful artistic approach of Jean Bastian. Among the best of the illustrations here are FS, OR, WL, and TMCM. Enjoy them!Language note: FrenchJean de La Fontain
