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

Although this controversial creation of the Jacobins used to serve as a way to epitomize the enemies of the Revolution, this figure became during the 19th century the symbol of the reactionary aristocracy, of its ludicrousness and of its excesses. These political uses of perfume, whether they be real or assumed, allow for the exposition of the way olfaction contributes to the controversial creation of social categories.La figure politique du muscadin est aussi persistante que l’odeur de musc dont elle tire son nom. Si cette construction polémique jacobine a d’abord permis d’incarner les ennemis de la Révolution, elle est devenue au cours du xixe siècle le symbole de l’aristocratie réactionnaire, de ses ridicules et de ses excès. Réels ou supposés, ces usages politiques du parfum permettent de montrer comment l’olfaction contribue à constituer, sur un mode polémique des catégories sociales
