About the author

Various

1,358 followers
Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

Est un ouvrage dense et passionnant, à la croisée du beau livre et de l’essai critique. Il éclaire avec précision la genèse du film de 1927, ses innombrables versions et la longue aventure de sa reconstitution récente. Le livre montre combien Napoléon est aussi un autoportrait de Gance, cinéaste visionnaire et démesuré. La richesse iconographique donne l’impression que le film défile sous les yeux, rendant la lecture immersive. En revanche, certains textes sont exigeants, parfois très académiques, et s’adressent clairement à des cinéphiles avertis.
À recommander surtout à ceux qui ont vu — ou s’apprêtent à voir — la Grande Version restaurée ou les autres.

Beautiful stills from the coming restauration with 9 engaging, lyrical essays by various hands that will repay rereading once I attend the screenings.
