La Dissidence biography, La Dissidence discography
This week, a Marcel Marceau double looks down sadly at a dying flower under a damning revelation in bold black letters: The Death of French Culture."Frenchmen backed by as many triumphant Americans.Often arguments are so circumvolutory that they land on their head.To say that "France has produced this autumn 727 new novels, hundreds of new music albums and dozens of new films" is in fact to show the country's cultural indigence.To make their case even stronger, American Inspector Clouseaus looking for the remnants of French culture through their magnifying glasses point to the high percentage of books translated from English in France's bookshops.It is clear to them that if only a handful of French books are released in the US it's because the rest are rubbish, and if the French have access to a large array of the latest Anglophone literature it's because it is far superior.It has never occurred to them that if only a handful of French novels are picked up for US rights, it may be because, silently, their country has barricaded itself behind walls and has lost interest in the outside world and, perhaps, other ways of thinking.Same goes for foreign cinema releases in the US, with French films coming first of all foreign movies distributed there.The excellence of Anglophone literature as a whole and the curiosity of French readers for the outer world.It's called diversity, the opposite of chauvinism.Sure, French artists, if they can prove having worked for 507 hours in 10 consecutive months, are eligible to benefits which won't force them to slave in bars at night while preparing for auditions during the day.Besides, this public bonus, helped by quotas, is regularly dealt to foreign artists.Targeting French culture, rejoicing over its apparent decline and glossing over its obvious achievements is in fact taking aim at a much broader villain: dissidence.It was last updated at 00:18 on January 12 2008.It was last updated at 00:18 on January 12 2008.Sorry, commenting is not available at this time.Apologies, something has gone wrong and this action cannot be completed.Closing this window without pressing "Post your comment" will result in your words being lost.Your comment has been successfully posted.Closing this window without pressing "Report" will result in your words being lost.Forget winning a ticket to the Superbowl, sleeping with Paris Hilton or getting an Oscar: for some Americans, there is nothing more titillating than the idea of the end of France.It pops up regularly on the cover of serious and prestigious publications, such as Time magazine's latest European edition.Often arguments are so circumvolutory that they land on their head.Simply because, you see, only a handful of these novels will reach American shores, there is no more Piaf and French films are too "tainted by talkiness".To make their case even stronger, American Inspector Clouseaus looking for the remnants of French culture through their magnifying glasses point to the high percentage of books translated from English in France's bookshops.It is clear to them that if only a handful of French books are released in the US it's because the rest are rubbish, and if the French have access to a large array of the latest Anglophone literature it's because it is far superior.Same goes for foreign cinema releases in the US, with French films coming first of all foreign movies distributed there.The excellence of Anglophone literature as a whole and the curiosity of French readers for the outer world.Sure, French artists, if they can prove having worked for 507 hours in 10 consecutive months, are eligible to benefits which won't force them to slave in bars at night while preparing for auditions during the day.This generous system may sustain a few mediocre artists but it allows most to perfect their craft.Guardian News and Media Limited 2006.Registered in England and Wales.Registered office: Number 1 Scott Place, Manchester M3 3GG.This video will appear on your blog shortly.Thank you for sharing this video!This video has been added to your favourites.Please log in to add to favourites.Please log in to add to your playlists.This video has no Responses.Be the first to Post a Video Response.EventListener("load", startscroller4, false)
