Tirtaine, Cecilia. "Le nouvel essor du cinéma britannique (1994-2004) : facteurs conjoncturels et structurels." Paris 10, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008PA100089.
Full textIn the mid-1990s the British cinema was thriving. The media was enthusiastic about the many successes both with the public and critics which the British cinema met, especially as it had been in a slump in the 80s. However, some were convinced that it was just a phase which would soon run out of steam as had already happened before. Actually, the history of British cinema shows a succession of crises and rebirths. It had a pool of talented artists, but, for these to be able to blossom and create a great variety of films, it could not do without money. A film cannot exist if there is no creativity. However, in order for the film to materialize and be seen by the public, it relies on big investment, both financial and human. It also depends on a complex system. The renaissance of the British cinema is therefore not due to one factor but studying the British film industry and its environment helps to explain this phenomenon. Examining how the relationship between government and film from the late 70s to the mid-2000s helps one to better understand the impact of some government policies on the cinema. The changes that took place in the three main sectors of the film industry – production, distribution and exhibition – are also among the essential factors which contributed to the new rise of the British cinema

Full textThe British Afro-Caribbean and Asian communities, together with Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, became more visible on the British screen and consequently in British society at large in the 80s and 90s. Through the use of Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of field, this study seeks to determine certain principles which govern the making of cultural representations. The first chapter looks at the conditions of production in a broad sense and outlines the complex conditions which made these films in particular possible. The second chapter on the space of film directors then shows those representations as being the result of the authors’ positions and strategies while being influenced by external intellectual and political factors. Each cultural « entity » is then analysed in its specific context and with the particular requirements imposed on its filmmakers. These general principles are finally explored in more depth and detail in the last chapter using six examples (three Scottish films and three Afro-Caribbean and Asian films). Analysis of these works suggest that although mainstream cinema generally contributes to conservative representations, it is sometimes able to generate new images, in the same way that independent cinema, prone by nature to innovation, occasionally perpetuates stereotypes. The conservative or innovative nature of cultural representations, while partially resulting from social, economic, political and intellectual factors, therefore remains largely determined by the « world of cinema » and its rules

Full textThe study of the deregulation of the british gas industry led us to introduce the concept of institutional dynamics in order to understand the evolution of the regulatory framework together with the development of competition. The modelling of the institutional dynamics using a model based on system dynamics theory enables to analyze the process of deregulation, I. E. The transition from the regulation of a monopoly to the regulation of competition. This research enables in particular: to articulate the microeconomic behaviours of economic, regulatory and political actors and to reconstruct the macroeconomic evolution of market shares; to suggest a new way of modelling competition in terms of entry and exit flows of firms; to consider the learning of the gas regulator and its lag to adjust the regulation as part of the institutional dynamics; to endogeneize the evolutions of the legal framework

Full textBetween 1979 and 1999, Scotland experienced a period of political, economic and social upheaval which gave rise to intense debate about the nature of Scottish identity within the British state. At the same time, Scottish literature enjoyed a period of creativity and dynamism which led numerous commentators to talk of a second Scottish literary renaissance. This literature, by favouring urban settings and the contemporary era, and by openly displaying its politicisation, is a key locus for these questions of identity. The main objective of this thesis is therefore to study how literature contributes to the construction, criticism and reinvention of a Scottish national identity. Informed by works which consider the nation as products of discourse shaped by culture, and thus by literature, we seek to analyse the ideological nature of the literary text. Its textual dimension, however, remains vital since the social meaning of the work of fiction will only reveal itself through the study of its lexical, semantic and narrative choices. For example, it is through the representation of madness, dependence and exile that Scottish literature contests the dominant neo-liberal discourse or the British sociolinguistic hierarchy. Despite their often militant nature, these works can in no way be reduced to mere political pamphlets, as they remain marked by tensions, contradictions and ceaseless questionings. By confronting identities that are ahistorical and essentialist, many authors stress the validity of Scottish identity while, at the same time, stressing its conventionality, plurality and ambiguity

Full textThe introduction focuses on Humphrey Jennings' (1907-1950) accomplishments, and what studies have been done on him, and how he is relatively unknown in France. The first part evokes Jennings' life, his literary and artistic engagements, including the crucial roles he played in the British surrealist movement, the founding of Mass Observation and his compilation on the Industrial Revolution, Pandaemonium. The second part is about Jennings the filmmaker. It begins with a short history of the British documentary film movement and Jennings' first films. With the outbreak of the Second World War, Jennings devoted himself to making propaganda films. Drawing from British tradition, these poetic documentaries had a profound effect on civilians and raised their moral. Today, they remain the most moving and true accounts of that time. Detailed analysis of these films follow. Jennings died accidentally in 1950. But his work is underrated. Some critics even believing his reputation to depend solely on the exceptional circumstances of the war. This thesis assumes the total of Jennings' work as poet, painter and filmmaker in order to establish his place as major artist of the twentieth century

Full textThis thesis deals with the treatment of the soundscape of World War II Britain in British propaganda of the period. More specifically, it focuses on how the Ministry of Information sought to handle Britain’s wartime sonic environment through the projection of propaganda messages and the control of information and cultural productions. This resulted, on the one hand, in an attempt to neutralize the sounds of war that the government, with the support of the scientific community, considered harmful to the physical and mental health of British citizens during the Blitz. On the other hand, the propaganda principles formulated by the government such as the “People’s War” or the idea that British people were “pulling together”, were specifically illustrated by several “aural icons” that were considered typical of the British nation. At the heart of my study lies the analysis of the soundtracks of official propaganda films commissioned, produced or sponsored by the Films Division of the Ministry of Information. From the beginning of the war, the British General Post Office (GPO) Film Unit was integrated into the Ministry and renamed the Crown Film Unit. Its role throughout the war was therefore, alongside the Army Film Unit and independent documentary units – such as the Shell Film Unit, Strand Film Company, Realist Film Unit and Spectator Short Films – to convey the government’s messages through short, medium and feature-length documentaries. What I demonstrate is that the government’s propaganda principles as well as their extolling of the British nation and its people, and of their superiority over Nazi Germany, were reflected in the treatment of the soundtrack of these films. Through a creative sound aesthetics, these films endeavoured to “harmonize” the sounds of the nation and establish a musical order within discrete sounds, as well as soundmarks encouraging the British people to resist in the face of adversity

Full textThe present study offers a guide line to enter the complex and profuse work of Peter Greenaway. It focuses on his fictional features, from " the Draughtsman's contract " (1982) to " the Pillow Book " (1996). We try to demonstrate that Greenaway's films are structured by an inherent dichotomy that is conveyed by a fascination /repulsion towards reproduction. This dichotomy is illustrated by sexual reproduction which confines humans in the antagonism of the sexes as well as in the biological cycle uniting birth and death. But the notion of reproduction itself is dealt with in a dual way. The duality of sexual reproduction is counterbalanced by a monism characterising a " cerebral " reproduction, which would allow humans to escape their biological cycle, thus denying time. This mental reproduction is a constant temptation for the male characters, the more so as it corresponds to their artistic preoccupations. However, the tension established by these two modes of reproduction conditions not only the set of themes, but also the narrative structures , which respond to the dual movement of inner repetition and outer references, as well as the medium of the cinema itself, which proves to be a place of tension between the establishment of a spatial order in a fixed moment and the constant flow of film progress

Full textFollowing a brief summary giving historical and scientific data on drugs, and more particulary on papaver somniferum and its derivatives, this thesis aims at giving a complete overview of the role of opium and opiates in nineteenth century British and Indian societies. The first traces back the history of opium farming in Britain and studies the trading channels of import opium, from the production zones in Asia minor to the British retail market. The impacts of the increasing opiate consumption within every startum of British society are analysed from different perspectives, focusing especially on political, economic, legal and health issues. The effects of opium-eating in somme British nineteenth century literary circles is investigated through the life and works of De Quincey and Coleridge. Likewise, the writings of Collins, Dickens, Doyles and Wilde are used to assess the changes in attitudes towards opium and morphine abuse in late-Victorian society. The fourth part looks into the scientific breakthroughs brought about by opium, in particular: the discovery and the extraction of morphine by Serturner, and its increasing use in medicine due to the invention of the hypodermic syringe by Alexander Wood. The discovery of morphine abuse will lead the way to the first medical theories on addiction and drug abuse. The last part goes back on the history of opium poppy in South and South east Asia from its origins, and investigates the various geoplitical incidents that led China and the British Empire to clash over the issue of Indian opium imports. The end of the thesis describes in detail the nineteenth century Indian opium poppy industry and looks into the different cultural and religious practices in which opium played a part in India society

Full textBorn in the trenches of World War I, Anzac is white Australia’s greatest myth. The involvement of troops from the Anzac (Australian and New Zealand army corps) in the conflict is considered as the turning point in the nation's history and has made a lasting impression on the Australian consciousness. The fascination which Anzac exerts on the national imagination was particularly obvious in the 1980's, when the great war was the subject of a few films and television series. These portrayals show a common will to reillustrate the myth in its traditional form and to resist demythification, thus revealing Australia’s state of mind during this period
Damême, Aurélie. "British, actually : Working Title Films et la construction d'un cinéma britannique à vocation internationale." Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015BOR30061.
Full textA unique entity in today's British film industry, production company Working Title Films has been responsible for many international hits since its creation in 1984. Its films have earned billions of dollars, and they have won many film awards, including dozens of Academy Awards and BAFTA Awards, but also accolades in Cannes, Berlin or Venice. Yet, some commentators criticize Working Title for being excessively influenced by Hollywood, hence lacking cultural ambitions. They blame the company's partnership with Universal and underline that some of its films broadcast a stereotypical view of Britishness, especially successful comedies by Richard Curtis, or the ones starring Rowan Atkinson. Indeed, the company's first film was My Beautiful Laundrette (Stephen Frears, 1985), a creative, committed film, but its more recent films tend to be more mainstream and its first international hit was Four Weddings and A Funeral (Mike Newell, 1994). However, Working Title seems to draw some of its strength from its British identity. Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner, the two producers behind Working Title, also defend its “European sensibility”. The latter is reinforced by a partnership with PolyGram Filmed Entertainment in the nineties, and then with StudioCanal. So it is a transnational rather than a transatlantic company. Its films are transnational too, and some plots even include intercultural relationships. They use various strategies to broaden their audience, such as crossover and polysemy, and they try to balance cultural specificity with universality. However, most importantly, one cannot deny the incredible diversity of the films – regarding both their national identity and their level of creativity. Therefore, Working Title offers a fascinating case study to learn more about the issues of British cinema, about its identity (national / post-national cinema), the balance between art and industry, its relationship with Hollywood, and the role of cultural policies. In other words, this dissertation will study the evolution of Working Title Films, focusing on its methods, its strategies and also on the textual analysis of its diverse films, as a way to investigate contemporary British cinema and its issues

Full textSince 1956, British cinema has regularly used the figure of the working class hero to represent working-class culture and the social and economic ups and downs it went through whether it was during the so-called Affluent Society (late 1950s-late 1970s) or the early signs of what was then to become an intensifying crisis (early 1980s-late 2000s). Based on a corpus of around three hundred films, this study relates British cinema to its contemporary social, economic and political context in order to attempt a definition of working-class idiosyncrasies and the recurring problems this class has had to face (threat of embourgeoisement or proletarianisation). It also attempts to replace the working class into the heart of all the debates that have stirred British society over the last fifty years and for which the working class hero has become a catalyst (meritocracy, classless society, inequalities, the place of women and minorities in society). Beyond his sociological representativeness, the continuing interest the working class hero has aroused and the fact that his identity rests on an exacerbated portrayal of suffering masculinity rather than a clearly defined class consciousness enable one to contemplate the emergence of a true mythical figure in the British national imagination

Full textThe impact of a technological protectionist policy on industrial development is illustrated by an historical case: the role of the english embargo on the industrialization, from, 1860 to 1913, of the present "super-powers" the U. S. And russia. The key innovations on mecanization emerged in the Lancashire cotton industry (1760-1840). An embargo on these technologies know-how and machinery - was instituted from 1785 to 1842. This embargo led, in a first stage, to a twenty years growth lag for russia as well as for the U. S. . But after 1860, to a paradox; it stimulated the growth of the U. S. . Country where the controls were the harsher. Therefore. A technological embargo should be assimilated to a rent which could be used by a country to retain its technological advance
Bazin, Cécile. "Images du conflit politique nord-irlandais dans le cinéma." Thesis, Paris 3, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PA030098.
Full textThis study centres on films dealing with the political conflict in Northern Ireland from 1968 to 1998 and attempts to trace the relationship between cinema and this ongoing conflict. Through its discursive construction, its independent voice and its popular reach, cinema provides a unique vehicle for the exploration of the Troubles and the peace process. The films about the Troubles, shot during this period, look mainly at the IRA and its relationship with England. The films made during the peace process reflect the question of identity - a central facet of the peace process - by representing, for example, some members of the IRA engaged in the search for their identity turning away from political violence. The comedies - also made during the peace process - use irony to denounce the political violence of the Troubles and depict the hope that the peace process generates. These films, mostly shot during the peace process which reconsiders t! he East-West relations and the internal relations in Northern Ireland between the two communities, focus primarily on the catholic community [nationalists and republicans] in its relationship with the British. Intercommunal relations appear rarely in films and the protestant community, relatively absent from the screen, is represented almost exclusively by loyalist paramilitaries. Therefore these films display a certain interest for the catholic point of view and some of them concentrate on catholic victims of specific events of the Troubles and offer an alternative to the official version of history endowing cinema with a role as historical source and also as a space for the memory of the victims. Thus, cinema does not only retranscribe history in a static way but takes part in the changes going on in Northern Ireland

Full textmise en marché collective du lait au Québec et de son office de commercialisation sous l'angle de l'économie néoinstitutionnelle. Les offices de commercialisation sont des organisations obligatoires de commercialisation définies et encadrées législativement, qui accomplissent différentes fonctions de commercialisation au nom des producteurs d'un produit agricole spécifique. Généralement considérés et analysés en économie comme des organisations horizontalement intégrées, les offices de commercialisation sont examinés dans cette thèse sous l'angle de leurs rôles institutionnel et organisationnel, ainsi que de leur efficacité transactionnelle, dans la coordination verticale des transactions de produits agricoles. Afin d'évaluer l'efficacité relative de cette organisation, une approche comparative avec les contrats bilatéraux entre producteurs et acheteurs de lait en Grande-Bretagne a été privilégiée. La thèse est divisée en trois parties.
Après avoir présenté le fonctionnement et la structure de la mise en marché collective des produits agricoles, la première partie justifie l'intérêt d'une analyse de ce mode de commercialisation en termes de coordination verticale des transactions. La deuxième partie examine dans un premier temps la question des déterminants de l'émergence de la mise en marché collective en tant qu'institution hybride. Dans un deuxième temps, elle analyse la nature organisationnelle de l'office de commercialisation du lait au Québec et propose de considérer cette structure de gouvernance comme une forme hybride quasi-hiérarchique. La troisième partie est empirique. Une base de données originales recueillies auprès de 62 producteurs laitiers anglais et d'employés de l'office de commercialisation du lait au Québec fait l'objet d'une analyse très précise dans laquelle j'évalue quantitativement l'importance des coûts de transaction supportés par les producteurs laitiers anglais et québécois lorsqu'ils contractualisent avec les acheteurs de lait.

Full textAs southern Ireland is striving to break the bond of dependency that ties her to the United Kingdom, it is gradually becoming an industrial region of the United Sates of America. Contrary to the expectations of the nationalists, the political sovereignty obtained in 1921 did not lead to economic independence and growth but to the continuation of a neocolonial relationship with the UK. This subordination is the consequence of the strengh of the age-old commercial, financial and fiscal links shaped between the two islands, of the existence of a pro-British élite hostile to the economic breakaway, of the conservatism of the population and of the absence of a strategy of development. Since 1960's and thanks to the liberalisation of world trade, Ireland has been able to implement, although belatedly, a very pragmatic policy of growth and employment based on the attraction of foreign direct investments, particularly those of American origin, and European integration. Yet, the three-way relationship set up between Ireland, the European Union and the USA is ill-balanced in so far as the role of American companies in the Irish economic growth is out of proportion compared to the size of the 26 Counties. Consequently, this makes the Irish economy more fragile and increases inequalities within Irish society

Full textSeveral hoards of precious vessels come from Roman Britain, some of them were found outside imperial boundaries (Scotland and Ireland) and represent loots of pirates. They were deposited during all Roman period, especially during the 3rd to the 5th centuries. Though large silver treasures are very rare there, this region is very rich in hoards of small precious objects of gold and silver (spoons, strainers, toothpicks, jewellery, coins, ingots…). In the meantime pewter industry flourishes from the 3rd century and vessels of this matter are produced in great quantity and diffused through the entire island, imitating silver vessels of the same period. It is often called the "poor man's silver".Through a descriptive catalogue of 229 Roman pewter and silver vessels hoards and single finds from the British Isles, this study starts with a typological and stylistic analysis of precious vessels and their imitations (forms, decoration, and techniques). It continues with a classification of all treasures and hoards that contain silver or pewter vessels, through a comparison of what they contained and where they were buried. Some of them could be of votive origin, inherited from Bronze Age

Full textThis thesis wonders about the work of examiners within British and French filmclassifications: in the UK, the BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) is theinstitution in charge of film classification; in France, it is the Commission ofClassification of Cinematographic Works. The question here is: how have the work ofexaminers and institutional and societal evolutions shaped the creation and thedevelopment of a language criterion within British and French film classificationsystems? Indeed, stereotypically, those classifications are generally opposed: the BBFC is presented as a swearword-counting system, while the French classification is described as liberal. This thesis aims at explaining the origin of those stereotypes and at highlighting the true place of language within film classifications

Full textThe French industry covers the main branches of which it is composed, and is designed to cope with the consumption of the country; but having started tardily it cannot withstand the competition of more advanced rival nations; the government has to promote protectionist measures to safeguard employment; numerous institutions exist to boost the development of trade and industry; but French people lack the spirit of enterprise; the prudent circumspection of French merchants is opposed to the bold and adventurous character of Anglo-Saxons. Great Britain has developed, mainly in their textile industry, an innovating and performing tool for industrial production, designed to exceed considerably the needs of domestic market; the merchants and manufacturers have a spirit oriented toward international trade to make a profit; and the country has solid financial institutions and a merchant shipping to which the Navigation Act promulgated by Cromwell gave a big advantage; but a big distress which exists in the working classes tarnishes this flattering landscape. Between 1822 and 1850 the production of French industry more than doubled, the foreign trade tripled; and its market share for exports of natural and manufactured products to Brazil doubled; this was a success for France, but could she have done better? The thesis tries to throw some light on the comparative responsibilities of the governmental policies and the behaviour of the private sector

Full textThis work provides a broad study of the right of performing artists to protect their performances in the Internet era. The first part of this work explores the theoretical foundation of copyright law, the history of moral rights, and the application of the theory of moral rights to cases affecting performing artists in the United States, the United Kingdom, and France. In addition, this work discusses relevant international law, including the Berne Convention and the Beijing Treaty. The second part of this work addresses the history of the movie industry.
