pleasure tropes in the history of erotic comics

Abstract

Članek zagovarja deveto umetnost kot najbolj primeren medij za umetniško in kritično upodobitev človeške seksualnosti. Svojo poanto ponazarja s historičnim ovinkom žanra, od biblij iz Tijuane prek ameriških superherojev pa vse tja evropskih mojstrovin, in, nenazadnje, v obliki posebne študije primera, Izgubljena dekleta, metapornografske mojstrovine 21. stoletja Alana Moora in Melinde Gebby. Članek dopolnjuje zgodovinsko perspektivo z meditacijami o razmerju med erotiko in pornografijo, smešnim in resnim, fantazijo in realnostjo v spolnem življenju ljudi.

Secondary abstract:	The article argues for the ninth art as the most suitable medium for an artistically and critically engaged depiction of human sexuality, and demonstrates its point with a historical tour of the genre from Tijuana bibles through American superhero and horror comics to the US underground, European mastery and, finally, Moore and Gebby's 21st century meta-porn masterpiece, Lost girls. The article enriches this historical tour with meditations on the relation between erotica and pornography, the funny and serious, and fantasy and reality in the sex life of humans.
