Cinema, Life and Solitude

Film journal Sabzian has just published an issue about Serge Daney which includes a translation (see below). There are contributions by ultimate Daney's specialist Pierre Eugène and the excellent Daniel Fairfax on the notion of filmed cinema. For the anecdote, the translation of Daney's text about Amos Gitai was intended for this project but somewhat didn't make the cut. 

Cinema, Life and Solitude

Extract from Daney's preface to the 3rd edition of Trafic (the film magazine he founded): “Journal de l’an présent,” Trafic, P.O.L., 1991. Reprinted in Serge Daney, La Maison cinéma et le monde, tome 4: Le moment Trafic, 1991–1992, P.O.L., 2015. Translated by Sam Warren Miell. Reprinted
