After the First World War, the Catholic Church intensified its interest in a world that was becoming ever more secular and began to look for new means of actively and creatively taking part in cultural affairs. Cinematography was one of the areas in which this trend became most apparent. It was shortly after the invention of cinematograph that various ideas and plans regarding how to deal with film began to emerge among Catholics. Consequently, the Pope gave his blessing to community-based initiatives and included them in his plan in the encyclical Vigilanti Cura. This study seeks to familiarise the reader with a multifarious mixture of interesting, and often contradictory, voices and opinions that were heard from Czech Catholics with regard to film. Catholic activities in the field of film are divided into three basic areas: production, classification and distribution, with the first area concerning the effort to make their own Catholic films. This study demonstrates the problems faced in this endeavour by presenting the difficulties in the making of the film Saint Wenceslas and the consequent relationship of Catholics to the completed work. The classification of films from the Catholic point of view was carried out systematically and in a coordinated manner. The study deals with the origins of...

Nous proposons, dans ce mémoire, d’explorer les possibilités pratiques et pédagogiques d’une approche autopoïétique de la création sonore au cinéma. Notre principal souci sera de saisir les modalités de l’ascèse propre aux artistes qui se livrent à une telle activité, comprise comme un « apprentissage de soi par soi » (Foucault), afin de faire celui qui peut faire l’œuvre (processus de subjectivation), et le rôle descriptif et opératoire de cet exercice - en tant qu’effort pour penser de façon critique son propre savoir-faire -, dans le faire-œuvre et l’invention de possibles dans l’écriture audio-visuelle cinématographique. Pour ce faire, d’une part, nous étudierons, à partir de témoignages autopoïétiques, le rapport réflexif de trois créateurs sonores à leur pratique et leur effort pour penser (et mettre en place) les conditions d’une pratique et d’une esthétique du son filmique comme forme d’art sonore dans un contexte audio-visuel, alors qu’ils travaillent dans un cadre normalisant : Randy Thom, Walter Murch et Franck Warner. D’autre part, nous recourrons à différentes considérations théoriques (la théorie de l’art chez Deleuze et Guattari, la « surécoute » chez Szendy, l’histoire de la poïétique à partir de Valéry, etc.) et pratiques (la recherche musicale chez Schaeffer, la relation maître-apprenti, les rapports entre automatisme et pensée dans le cinéma moderne chez Artaud et Godard, etc.), afin de contextualiser et d’analyser ces expériences de création, avec l’objectif de problématiser la figure de l’artiste-poïéticien sur un plan éthique dans le sillage de la théorie des techniques de soi chez Foucault. / It is our aim, in this study, to explore the practical and pedagogical possibilities of an auto-poietic approach to sound designing in cinema. Our main concern is to grasp the modalities of the asceticism unique to artists of this trade, understood as a apprenticeship of the self, by the self (Foucault) in order to generate the one who can make the work of art, and the descriptive and operational roles of this exercise - as a means of producing critical thought with respect to one’s own know-how-, in the making of the film and the invention of possibilities in audio-visual cinematographic “writing”. To do this, firstly, based on various forms of autopoietic testimony, we study the reflexive relation of three sound designers (Randy Thom, Walter Murch and Frank Warner) with respect to their practice and their efforts to think (and put in place) the conditions of a practice and an esthetics of film sound as a form of sound art in the audio-visual context, while these are working in normative framework. Secondly, we will use various theoretical (the art theories of Deleuze and Guattari, the “surécoute” of Szendy, the history of poietic from Valéry, etc.) and practical (Schaeffer’s musical research, the master-student relationship, the relationship between automatism and thought in the modern cinemas of Artaud and Godard, etc.) considerations to help contextualize and analyze these experiences of artistic creation, with the objective of problematizing the figure of the poietic-artist in the wake of Foucault’s theories on the techniques of self.

In this research, we seek to unveil the underlying logics of the socializing that used to take place in this specific social and cultural space, emphasizing the transvestite prostitution market inside of it. We will show some of the mental and corporal schemas which this concrete reality evokes, seen as a symbolic matrix of practical activities, feelings, conducts, thoughts and judgement on the part of the spectators that used to make up this space. The Jangada movie-theater was shut down in july, 1996, and played an intermediary role in the general process of reorganization of the “social geography” of the local movie houses’. In downtown Fortaleza pornography has become destiny, and after Jangada, the emerging movie houses represent a new configuration as to the exhibition of this cinematographic genre, not only because of the video format technology now used, but also because of the territorialities that they give place. This dissertation is intended to be a critique contribuition to the thinking of the town spaces and territories, the existing conditions of those who make a living out of the prostitution market and the coming into being of socializing places which, having porn iconography as condition and pretext, give visibility to the alternative modes of sexuality and end up producing new and unexpected territorities in relation to the shaping and disciplinary architecture of a movie theater. / Este trabalho é o resultado de uma pesquisa desenvolvida numa sala de cinema especializada na exibição de filmes pornográficos, localizada no centro da cidade de Fortaleza. Nessa pesquisa buscamos explicitar as lógicas subjacentes à socialidade que tinha lugar nesse espaço sociocultural específico, enfatizando sua inserção no circuito exibidor local e o mercado da prostituição travesti no interior da mesma. Discorremos aqui sobre os esquemas mentais e corporais que essa realidade concreta evoca, vistos enquanto matriz simbólica de atividades práticas, sentimentos, condutas, pensamento e julgamento por parte dos espectadores que compunham esse espaço. O Cine Jangada teve suas portas fechadas em julho de 96 e foi ‘divisor de águas’ de um processo geral de reordenação da geografia social das salas de exibição. No centro da cidade, pornografia virou destino e as salas que surgiriam depois do Jangada representam um fato inédito na forma de veiculação desse gênero cinematográfico, não somente devido a utilização do formato de vídeo para a exibição desses filmes, mas também devido às territorialidades que dão lugar. Esta dissertação pretende ser uma contribuição crítica para pensar os espaços e territórios da cidade, as condições de existência de alguns que vivem da atividade prostitutiva e a constituição de lugares de convivência que, tendo a iconografia pornô como condição e pretexto, dão visibilidade ao exercício de uma determinada forma de sexualidade e acabam por produzir territorialidades novas e imprevistas em relação à arquitetura disciplinar e enquadradora de uma sala de exibição.

Buscamos perceber a relevância destes espaços em um período em que o cinema no âmbito mundial passava por significativas mudanças com a valorização de um novo público abonado financeiramente. Em Fortaleza, a elite, sobretudo a comercial, que freqüentava locais como o Passeio Público e os clubes, passou a adotar o cinema como mais um espaço de lazer. Ao analisarmos a atuação dos diversos atores sociais envolvidos nesta trama, destacamos a presença de Luiz Severiano Ribeiro que torna-se o mais importante exibidor local vindo a monopolizar a distribuição dos filmes e expandir sua atuação comercial para outras cidades do Brasil antes do término desta década. O comportamento do público na sala de cinema, os usos que eram feitos deste espaço e as novas práticas de exibição cinematográfica que passaram a ser adotadas neste período são questões analisadas ao longo deste trabalho.
