Bag om Tex Avery

Floriane Place-Verghnes examines the work of this great American animator. Focusing primarily on four facets of AveryΓÇÖs work, the author first concentrates on AveryΓÇÖs ability to depict the American attempt both to retrieve the past nostalgically and to catch the Zeitgeist of 1940s America, which confronts the questions of violence and survival. She also analyzes issues of sex and gender and the crucial role Hollywood played in reshaping the image of womanhood, reducing it to a bipolar opposition. Thirdly, she examines the comic language developed by Avery which, although drawing on the work of the Marx Brothers and Chaplin (among others), transcended their conventions. Finally, Place-Verghnes considers AveryΓÇÖs place in the history of cartoon-making technique.
