From the Preface: Few if any events have had greater impact on the history of film than the coming of the talkies, film historians have paid relatively little attention to how and why the transition from silent to sound cinema came about. It is hoped that the present work will provide the factual groundwork for repairing that neglect. Its emphasis is on the history of American contributions to the evolution of the sound film, but significant foreign achievements have not been overlooked. The book surveys the events that led from the invention of the phonograph in 1877 to that momentous evening in 1927 when an audience at the Warner's Theatre in New York City saw and heard Al Jolson speak from the screen. It also considers the effects of the sound revolution on Hollywood and Hollywood film production during the transitional years 1928-29. The published sources on which this study was based have all been indicated in the notes, and the reader is advised to consult that original material whenever he requires additional technical or factual information.

Une perspective nouvelle dans l'analyse du cinéma : en privilégiant l'entrée sonore, l'auteur montre comment la propagation des échos à travers l'espace filmique perturbe la réception spectatorielle des films, même des plus classiques. Aucun son n'est jamais à l'image de quelque chose, mais toujours en marge d'une image dont il n'offre que des brouillons imparfaits. Dans le film, le sonore insinue sous le visible les évocations multiples auxquelles il fait écho. En organisant la déliaison du son et de l'image, le cinéma met en concurrence le regard, attentif au contour des figures, et l'écoute, sensible à leur devenir. Relançant une approche phénoménologique de la perception, ce livre propose une perspective nouvelle sur le rôle de l'écoute dans la réception d'un film. Le spectateur se trouve placé au centre d'une réflexion cinématographique dont l'orientation privilégie désormais, avec l'entrée sonore, les résonances que les bruits et les voix propagent dans l'espace filmique et la perturbation qu'ils provoquent dans l'entente des films les plus classiques. Ce faisant, l'écoute s'attache à déplier, à travers l'entretien syncopé du son et de l'image, le champ des formes éphémères que chaque son fait surgir.

Orphan works, or artworks for which no copyright holder is traceable, pose a growing problem for museums, archives, and other heritage institutions. As they come under more and more pressure to digitize and share their archives, they are often hampered by the uncertain rights status of items in their collections. The Greatest Films Never Seen: The Film Archive and the Copyright Smokescreen uses the prism of copyright to reconsider human agency and the politics of the archive, and asks what the practical implications are for educational institutions, the creative industries, and the general public.

C’est à l’histoire de l’avènement du son au cinéma que nous convie Giusy Pisano. Aux confins des sciences et des techniques, les inventeurs les plus curieux croisent ici les chercheurs les plus à la pointe de leur nouvelle discipline, quelquefois au plus grand étonnement du lecteur. Comment peut-on imaginer par exemple que les recherches sur les sourds et muets ont eu des répercussions décisives dans la naissance du cinéma moderne ? C’est au début du XIXe siècle, grâce, entre autres, à l’essor de la physiologie expérimentale qu’une panoplie de nouveaux appareils se met progressivement en place, expliquant la nature du mouvement vibratoire d’une onde sonore ou d’un objet se déplaçant dans un espace et reproduisant le même phénomène. Dans l’ « obsession » du mouvement, propre au XIXe siècle, les recherches sur le son arrivent peu à peu à se relier aux investigations sur le mouvement visuel. Du chronographe de Thomas Young à la chronophotographie de Marey en passant par les recherches acoustiques de l’abbé Rousselot, un champ fragile de convergence s’élabore, nouant des relations expérimentales entre des domaines apparemment éloignés. L’enregistrement du mouvement tant en acoustique qu’en optique ou en physiologie constitue ici le pivot de la synchronisation son /image. Grâce à lui des échanges de plus en plus constants s’effectuèrent entre science, spectacle et industrie. Le cinéma sonore pouvait naître.
