520 |a The "clear line", a term coined in 1977 by Dutch essayist and artist Joost Swarte, has become shorthand in the field of comics studies for the style originally developed by Herge and the École de Bruxelles. It refers to certain storytelling strategies that generate a deceptively simple, lucid, and hygienic narration: in Philippe Marion?s words, it is a style "made out of light, fluidity and limpid clarity". By cataloguing and critically analysing clear line comics from historical and theoretical perspectives, this book offers a new outlook on the development of the style in the 20th and 21st centuries, especially focused on the context of the European "bande dessinee". In addition, it pioneeringly expands the concept of "clear line" to other artistic domains by introducing and defending its transmedial use, which is particularly relevant for the understanding of the oeuvres of certain filmmakers of the 20th century working in the postwar period, such as Yasujirô Ozu in Japan, Jacques Tati in France and Frank Tashlin in the United States. 'The Clear Line in Comics and Cinema' is therefore a key theoretical work for both "bande dessinee" enthusiasts and comics scholars, as well as a fundamental contribution to present-day film studies and transmedial narratology.
