Paris as semantic city in two graphic novels by Jacques Tardi
Keywords:
Jacques Tardi, Leo Malet, Jean-Patrick Manchette, Paris, comic.
Abstract
Two graphic novels by the same author and of the same police genre, serve to compare two different versions of the city of Paris. Based on two important French detective novels by Malet and Manchette, they are put in context with their literary sources. Placed in two very different historic moments, the nazi occupation of France and the seventies, the visual representation of the city is analyzed and compared.Downloads
