""From the first, brief moving images of female nudes in the 1880s to the present, the motion picture camera made the female body a battleground in what we now call the culture wars. Churchmen feared the excitation of male lust; feminists decried the idealization of a body type that devalued the majority of women. This history of Hollywood's treatment of women's bodies traces the full span of the motion picture era. Primitive peepshow images of burlesque dancers gave way to the "artistic" nudity of the 1910s when model Audrey Munson and swimmer Annette Kellerman contended for the title of American Venus. Clara Bow personified the qualified sexual freedom of the 1920s flapper. Jean Harlow, Mae West and the scantily clad chorus girls of the early 1930s provoked the Legion of Decency to demand the creation of a Production Code Administration that turned saucy Betty Boop into a housewife. Things loosened up during World War II when Betty Grable and Rita Hayworth ruled the screen. The postwar years saw the blonde bombshells and "mammary madness" of the 1950s while the 1960's brought bikini-clad sex kittens. With the replacement of the Production Code by a ratings system in 1968, nudity and sex scenes proliferated in the R-rated movies of the 1970s and 1980s. Recent movies, often directed by women, have pointed the way toward a more egalitarian future. Finally, the #MeToo movement and the fall of Harvey Weinstein have forced the industry to confront its own sexism. Each chapter of this book situates movies, famous and obscure, into the context of changes in the movie industry and the larger society."-Provided by publisher"--

Au tournant des années 60, la Nouvelle Vague est une nouvelle façon de faire du cinéma, plus personnelle, plus libre, qu’illustrent les noms de François Truffaut, Jean-Luc Godard, Louis Malle pour la mise en scène, Anna Karina, Jeanne Moreau pour l’interprétation. Ce sont les changements de mœurs et en particulier les nouveaux rapports amoureux qu’étudie cet ouvrage novateur et polémique à travers les films phares de la Nouvelle Vague, de 1957 à 1962 (À bout de souffle, Hiroshima mon amour, Les cousins, etc.) et leur réception critique dans la presse. Une lecture revigorante et non conformiste.

The past decades have witnessed considerable developments in Translation Studies and, particularly, a growing interest in the cultural and ideological differences engendered by the act of translating. More recently, Audiovisual Translation has also experienced an impressive growth in terms of research developments and applications. This book focuses on the role that cinematic language and audiovisual translation play in the transmission of stereotypes concerning gender, sexuality, ethnicity and economic status. While it helps identify the gender bias embedded in language and how this is then manipulated during the dubbing transfer, this book also addresses other considerations such as the role of the audiovisual translators, the triggers which reinforce the androcentric views already present in films, and the influence on the translators of ideological and political constraints. For this reason it is of interest to both the academic community and the wider public who may still be the target of gender discrimination themselves and/or are sensitive to gender issues.
