Sommario/riassunto |
|
Depuis les années 1980, les périphéries urbaines sont très fortement investies par les écrivains. Six d’entre eux sont étudiés dans ce livre : François Bon, François Maspero, Jacques Réda, Jean Rolin, Denis Tillinac et Philippe Vasset. Ils « voyagent » sur le pourtour parisien, parfois plus loin, là où, dit-on, la ville est moins ville que la ville, dans des espaces qui souffriraient d’un déficit d’urbanité. Ce faisant, ils en éprouvent la consistance paysagère, compliquent l’opposition facile entre Paris et sa banlieue, apparaissent, de fait, comme les agents d’une requalification symbolique de la ville contemporaine. La démarche de l’auteur se situe ici au confluent d’un corpus particulier, circonscrit dans le temps – les textes retenus ont paru entre 1990 et 2007 – et d’une question de grande ampleur historique, culturelle et esthétique : le paysage.

en plaçant les oeuvres commentées dans la lumière où elles trouvent leur relief spécifique, sa réflexion associe ponctuellement l’analyse littéraire à d’autres disciplines (géographie, sociologie, philosophie). Elle apporte ainsi, sur un champ peu exploré de la littérature vivante, un éclairage neuf et original qui s’adresse aux spécialistes du contemporain, ou de l’extrême contemporain, mais aussi à tous les lecteurs intéressés par les pratiques et les savoirs de la ville. |

Sommario/riassunto |

Until now, most works on the history of African Americans in advertising have focused on the depiction of blacks in advertisements. As the first comprehensive examination of African American |

participation in the industry, Madison Avenue and the Color Line breaks new ground by examining the history of black advertising employees and agency owners.For much of the twentieth century, even as advertisers chased African American consumer dollars, the doors to most advertising agencies were firmly closed to African American professionals. Over time, black participation in the industry resulted from the combined efforts of black media, civil rights groups, black consumers, government organizations, and black advertising and marketing professionals working outside white agencies. Blacks positioned themselves for jobs within the advertising industry, especially as experts on the black consumer market, and then used their status to alter stereotypical perceptions of black consumers. By doing so, they became part of the broader effort to build an African American professional and entrepreneurial class and to challenge the negative portrayals of blacks in American culture.Using an extensive review of advertising trade journals, government documents, and organizational papers, as well as personal interviews and the advertisements themselves, Jason Chambers weaves individual biographies together with broader events in U.S. history to tell how blacks struggled to bring equality to the advertising industry. |
