Santé, intimité, et identité dans la bande dessinée autobiographique de tradition franco-belge examines the ways different autobiographical comic books explore the theme of health, and its influence on identity construction. How do artists represent abstract feelings of pain? How do illnesses influence our sense of self? What is the role of others in our personal history? Our state of health, both physical and mental, has a profound effect on our identity, and how we perceive and tell stories about this dimension of our lives is crucial to forming a sense of self, particularly in a contemporary digitalized world that is now flooded with information and images once considered too private for public consumption. All the works studied exhibit a constant tension between the anxieties of revealing intimacy and vulnerability, and the desire to make suffering meaningful, which is a fundamental aspect of these authors' quest to recover and to reconstitute a sense of self. Informed by the insights of intimacy studies, psychoanalysis, comics studies, and visual studies, this book shows how these works participate in the process of meaning-making, and how the comics genre allows them to do so in particularly inventive and contemporary ways.
Le livre Santé, intimité, et identité dans la bande dessinée autobiographique de tradition franco-belge examine les différentes manières dont les bandes dessinées autobiographiques explorent le thème de la santé, et son influence sur la construction identitaire. Comment les artistes représentent-ils le sentiment abstrait de la douleur ? Comment la maladie influence-t-elle l'image que nous avons de nous-mêmes ? Quel est le rôle de l'autre dans notre histoire personnelle ? Notre état de santé, à la fois physique et mental, a un effet profond sur notre sens de l'identité, et la façon dont nous nous percevons et racontons des histoires sur cette dimension de nous-mêmes est cruciale à la formation du moi, particulièrement dans un monde qui est de nos jours inondé avec d'informations et d'images autrefois considérées trop privées pour être partagées publiquement. Toutes les oeuvres étudiées dans ce livre montrent une tension constante entre les anxiétés de révéler son intimité et sa vulnérabilité, et le désir de trouver un sens à la souffrance endurée, qui est un aspect fondamental dans la quête des auteurs de se retrouver. Basé sur les théories des études sur la littérature intime, de la psychanalyse, et des études sur les bandes dessinées et l'art visuel, ce livre analyse la manière dont ces oeuvres participent au processus de fabrication du sens, et comment la bande dessinée leur permet de réaliser cela de façon particulièrement inventive et contemporaine.
