Sommario/riassunto

Ce volume explore la poésie des choses, la nature fuyante de la distinction entre l'objet et la chose et les avatars du kitsch. À travers les « grands textes » de la littérature britannique et américaine (Dickens. Norris, Joyce. Beckett. roman policier), des œuvres lyriques (Thomas Hardy. Robert Lowell, Elizabeth Bishop, Derek Mahon, Paul Muldoon) ou des ligures d'artistes comme Derek Jarman et Jeff Koons, se fait jour une ligne de partage, ou ligne de faille, entre l’objet lyrique et la chose inhumaine, l'objet comme extension du moi et la chose comme remise en cause du sujet. Cette distinction parcourt la plupart des articles réunis dans ce volume dont l’ambition est de revenir sur les notions de ressemblance et de beau, cruciales pour le réalisme et le lyrisme



contemporains, artistiques ou littéraires.

Sommario/riassunto

"Due to the graphic nature of this program, viewer discretion is advised." Most of us have encountered this warning while watching television at some point. It is typically attached to a brand of reality crime TV that Paul Kaplan and Daniel LaChance call "crimesploitation": spectacles designed to entertain mass audiences by exhibiting "real" criminal behavior and its consequences. This book examines their enduring popularity in American culture. Analyzing the structure and content of several popular crimesploitation shows, including Cops, Dog: The Bounty Hunter, and To Catch a Predator, as well as newer examples like Making a Murderer and Don't F**K with Cats, Kaplan and LaChance highlight the troubling nature of the genre: though it



presents itself as ethical and righteous, its entertainment value hinges upon suffering. Viewers can imagine themselves as deviant and ungovernable like the criminals in the show, thereby escaping a law-abiding lifestyle. Alternatively, they can identify with law enforcement officials, exercising violence, control, and "justice" on criminal others. Crimesploitation offers a sobering look at the depictions of criminals, policing, and punishment in modern America.
