Comme l’a noté le philosophe Jacques Derrida, l’enregistrement des voix a été l’un des évènements marquants du siècle passé. Le sociolinguiste William Labov s’est intéressé aux motivations sociales des variations phonologiques, mais non pas à la voix en tant que telle. Les recherches effectuées sur la texture et la qualité de la voix ou la relation entre la voix et l’affect sont beaucoup plus rares. Le sujet est mentionné dans les discussions sur la musique, le doublage, le théâtre et la traduction, sans toutefois être analysé en profondeur. Les articles sur la voix correspondent en outre à un développement relativement récent dans les domaines de la psycholinguistique et de la psychoacoustique, lié à un regain d’intérêt pour les études sur l’émotion de manière générale. Le présent recueil d’articles offre une perspective pluridisciplinaire au carrefour entre la sociolinguistique, la phonologie et les études cinématographiques.

«This erudite and informative book on French film directors is a comprehensive deep dive into the multi-faceted and interconnected landscape of Francophone cinema. From Akerman to Zidi, via Godard and Gondry, the volume marshals an impressive range of scholars who demonstrate how the French ‘art of directing’ – whether from established legends or emerging voices – is a blend of the perceptive, the provocative and the populist.»(Ben McCann, Associate Professor of French Studies, University of Adelaide)«This impressive book is full of passion and fun facts. A wonderful work of scholarship, comprehensive and yet personable.»(Dr Christophe Gagne, Associate Professor in French, University of Cambridge)«The Art of Directing is a fabulous new resource for everyone interested in French cinema. Scholars and film-lovers alike will find much to be informed and inspired by in its concise but rich entries on 121 different directors. This will be the starting point for anyone wanting to know more about the directors who have shaped French cinema from the silent era to the present day.»(Mairi McLaughlin, Professor of French, University of California, Berkeley)«From Chantal Akerman to Claude Zidi, from auteur cinema to mainstream filmmaking, this wide-ranging book explores the world of French film directors, many ignored by critics until now. It includes entries by specialists from around the world and will be essential reading for students and lovers of the French-speaking world and film buffs alike.»(Professor Nina Parish, Professor of French and Francophone Studies, University of Sterling)«The Art of Directing is an indispensable tool for anyone interested in French cinema since its beginning. This volume takes us on a fascinating journey where we will meet not only leading figures of the seventh art but also littleknown filmmakers. Comprehensive, thorough, and impressively researched.»(Pierre-Philippe Fraiture, Professor of French, University of Warwick)It is not by chance that films by Renoir, Bresson, Varda, Godard, or Truffaut – to name just a few – have become widely studied around the world, with their directors becoming household names. Yet there are so many others who have made their mark on French and international cinema. The aim of this dictionary is to shed light on the directing process and to help people discover forgotten directors and rediscover prominent ones who have made Francophone cinema what it is today. This book is intended as a reference resource for students, scholars, and academics as well as film lovers, who will find both biographical and filmographic references, allowing them to gain an understanding in a nutshell of a particular director’s career and its influences as well as its impact upon and legacy for the world of French cinema – and beyond. When one considers all the directors who have impacted French cinema – from the silent era to our current digital and streaming age – this work is as exhaustive and inclusive as possible.
