Abstract

Le cinéma naît alors que l'épopée de l'Ouest touche à sa fin. En 1895, on déclare la fin de la Frontière et le cinéma prend la relève du mouvement de conquête. Les fondateurs de Hollywood ne manqueront pas de faire eux-mêmes le parallèle. Dès qu'il y eut cinéma aux États-Unis, il y eut western… Ce rapport de proximité entre l'époque et l'invention d'un nouveau mode de création nourrit une intimité sur laquelle fait fond le western classique américain. Au fil des contributions ici rassemblées, les angles d'approches se multiplient : esthétique, anthropologie philosophique, philosophie sociale et politique, philosophie de l'histoire, histoire de l'art et études cinématographiques. En mobilisant essentiellement des compétences et des références philosophiques, mais aussi les vertus de l'interdisciplinarité, ce collectif se propose de poser les jalons d'une étude approfondie de l'image westernienne en traitant les enjeux des limites et frontières, de la justice sans cesse réinterrogée, de l'étranger, du lointain, du vivre ensemble, de la persécution, de l'imaginaire culturel et social et de l'invention historique.

Abstract

He Was Some Kind of a Man: Masculinities in the B Western explores the construction and representation of masculinity in low-budget western movies made from the 1930's to the early 1950's. These films contained some of the mid-twentieth-century's most familiar names, especially for youngsters: cowboys such as Roy Rogers, Hopalong Cassidy, and Red Ryder. The first serious study of a body of films that was central to the youth of two generations, He Was Some Kind of a Man combines the author's childhood fascination with this genre with an interdisciplinary scholarly exploration
