        The new pornographies

        Explicit sex in recent French fiction and film

        by Victoria Best, Martin Crowley

        The turn of the twenty-first century has witnessed the striking advance of pornography into the Western cultural mainstream. Symptomatic of this development has been the use by writers, artists, and film-makers of the imagery and aesthetics of pornography, in works which have, often on this basis, achieved considerable international success. Amongst these artists are a number of French authors and directors - such as Michel Houellebecq, Catherine Breillat, Virginie Despentes, or Catherine Millet - whose work has often been dismissed as trashy or exploitative, but whose use of pornographic material may in fact be indicative of important contemporary concerns. In this study of a very significant trend, the authors explore how the reference to pornography encodes diverse political, cultural, and existential questions, including relations between the sexes, the collapse of avant-garde politics, gay sexualities in the time of AIDS, the anti-feminist backlash, the relation to the body and illness, the place of fantasy, and the sexualisation of children. It will be of interest to undergraduates, graduates, and researchers in the fields of French culture, gender, film and media studies.

        Die ganze Welt schaute zu, als die adlige Kindergärtnerin Diana Frances Spencer Englands Thronfolger Prinz Charles ihr Ja-Wort gab. Es war eine Hochzeit wie im Märchen. Aber Diana wollte kein Märchen leben. Sie ließ sich scheiden und nutzte ihre Berühmtheit, um auf die Missstände in der Welt aufmerksam zu machen. Sie setzte sich für Kinder ein, besuchte Aidskranke und lief über Minenfelder … Als sie nach einem Unfall starb, trauerte die ganze Welt um eine Frau, die den Mut gehabt hatte, aus dem goldenen Käfig auszubrechen. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.

        Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Ruby Taylor, Silke Kleemann

        Als Farrokh Bulsara wurde er im heutigen Tansania geboren. Freddie, wie man ihn nannte, lernte Klavier und beeindruckte im Schulchor durch seine imposante Stimme. Stundenlang konnte er vor dem Radio sitzen und Musik hören, am liebsten Rock’n’Roll. Als die Familie nach London zieht, die coolste Stadt für einen Musiker, landet er schnell in einer Band, sie nennen sich »Queen«. Und ihre Queen ist Freddie Mercury, der mit seinen Bühnenkostümen Furore macht und mit seinem Gesang sowieso. Monatelang stehen die von ihm komponierten Lieder wie »Bohemian Rhapsody« oder »We are the Champions« auf Platz 1 der Charts. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.
