Review Cocteau. L'oeil architecte / Art Creation Realisation:Jean Cocteau, born in Maisons-Laffitte in 1889, died in Milly-la-Foret in 1963. He was probably the best-known French poet, to the general public. Not that his work was, like that of Prévert, full of popular sensitivity; but he had the gift, through his constant innovations and his hatred of dogmatism, of incarnating the very essence of poetic exclusion among successive generations of young people. Playwright and novelist, poet and film director, he created many great works whose names are known outside of literary and cinematic circles: The Human Voice, The Infernal Machine, Les Parents Terribles, Thomas the Imposter, and naturally, The Beauty and the Beast and Orpheus.

Review Music and Theatre in France 1600-1680 / Oxford University Press, USA:During the course of the 17th century, the dramatic arts reached a pinnacle of development in France; but despite the volumes devoted to the literature and theatre of the ancien regime, historians have largely neglected the importance of music and dance. This study defines the musical practices of comedy, tragicomedy, tragedy, and mythological and non-mythological pastoral drama, from the arrival of the first repertory companies in Paris until the establishment of the Comedie-Francaise.

Review Black Entertainers in African American Newspaper Articles, Volume 1: An Annotated Bibliography of The Chicago Defender, The Afro-American (Baltimore), ... and The New York Amsterdam News, 1910-1950 / McFarland & Company:All forms of American entertainment have been influenced by the participation of African Americans, and some forms have been invented by them, yet for much history that influence and those inventions went undocumented in the white press. For the first half of the twentieth century, the best coverage of blacks in entertainment—especially the developing motion picture industry—was in the newspapers published and circulated by the African American community. This annotated bibliography offers easy access to that coverage in four of the most influential black newspapers in the period from 1910 to 1950: the Chicago Defender, the Afro-American (Baltimore), the Los Angeles Sentinel and the New York Amsterdam News. The chronological arrangement allows the reader to trace developments in entertainment from the early days of motion pictures to mid-century. Quotations from the articles offer a taste of each newspaper’s style, and extensive indexing provides quick access to names, titles, and subjects, making the book an invaluable aid to researchers.
