Beschreibung

Graphic Novel Evolution charts the rise of graphic novels from humble comic book origins to a respected art form, exploring how sequential art gained literary recognition. It examines the unique blend of visual storytelling and textual narrative that defines the medium, highlighting its impact on both comics and the broader literary landscape. The book reveals how formal innovations, such as panel layout and character design, contribute to the reading experience.

 
This exploration begins with a historical overview, tracing comics from early newspaper strips to the underground comix movement. The book then analyzes the formal language of comics, demonstrating how visual elements enhance storytelling. One intriguing fact is how the advent of graphic novels has expanded the definition of literature to include visual communication.

 
Structured in three parts, the book first introduces the pre-graphic novel era, then examines formal elements, and finally explores cultural impact. By combining historical analysis, formal criticism, and cultural commentary, Graphic Novel Evolution offers a nuanced perspective on the graphic novel's past, present, and future potential, making it valuable for students and general readers alike.

    'Riveting' Kirk DouglasFrom his first Oscar, Marlon Brando built an impenetrable fortress around his private life: unauthorised releases—or snapshots of him, even by friends—were forbidden. George Englund was Brando's closest friend for almost fifty years and the last person to visit him before his death. Based on deeply personal stories from the death of their sons to Jackie Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe, he draws Brando's life as only they knew it. A young actor emerges who was beautiful in every way; driven by his instinctive talent to break new ground, athletic, muscular, seductive, intelligent and generous. And, from early on, seeds of self-destruction began to grow.
