The Tramp is actually torn between two types of dance: classical dance with a geometric character, and contemporary dance that works more with the laws of mechanics (gravity, inertia,...). Thus, the Tramp’s dancing gesture leads him from academism and a desire for mastery to the elaboration, with a set of physical phenomena, of a more uncontrolled movement. mar., 02 janv. 2024 16:18:24 +0100 mar., 11 févr. 2025 14:02:06 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/540 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/178 When Kafka, among his annotations for The Castle, inserts the sentence “But the real comic lies in the particular”, he gives us a precious indication about the mechanism of his writing. The extreme attention to narrative detail, which characterizes his style, is also a gimmick for him to give a comic tone to his poetic visions. Paying attention to Kafka’s comic side, this contribution aims to focus an aspect that some of his contemporaries had already highlighted, but that has only recently begun to raise a perceivable interest in the German studies. mar., 28 nov. 2023 15:00:36 +0100 lun., 12 févr. 2024 14:36:34 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/178 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/559 Charles Chaplin created his character Charlot, called too The tramp during the 1910s. Vagabond, lonely and unlucky, this character has been placed by Chaplin in several situations which he could not control. By using tragic codes to make some comic dimension in action movies with fast pace, Chaplin, with this unfortunate character, became the most famous burlesques filmmakers. His influence makes itself felt still today. mer., 03 janv. 2024 11:51:33 +0100 mer., 03 janv. 2024 11:51:49 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/559
