Journée d'études "Guignol dans le texte" (4 octobre 2024, Lyon)

10/15/2024

Footage of the seminar "Guignol dans le texte" held on 4 October 2024 at the Musée des Arts de la Marionnette - Gadagne in Lyon. Since 2019, the Musée des Arts de la Marionnette (MAM) has been collaborating with the Université Paul-Valéry Montpellier 3 and the team led by Didier Plassard, professor and principal investigator of the European research programme PuppetPlays. As part of this project, the MAM - Gadagne documentation centre has made its collection of Guignol repertoires available for digitisation, analysis and distribution on the PuppetPlays online platform. The most popular Guignol plays are comedies such as Le Déménagement, Les Frères Koch and Le Pot de confiture... But other genres have also contributed to the puppet's success, including fairy tales, military plays and parodies. The lectures and readings on this day are intended to show the great variety of these shows, the diversity of their audiences and the contexts in which they were performed. The recent discovery of manuscripts performed in Paris between 1866 and 1868 by puppeteers from Lyon will also provide an opportunity to reflect on the language of Guignol and its transformations.
