«Les Stars» is an essay by Edgar Morin on film stars, published by Editions du Seuil in paperback (188 pages, in French).
Edgar Morin studies the film star as a sociological phenomenon: the construction of their image, their relationship with the public, and their mythical dimension. The essay analyzes how the reality of the person merges with the character, with Marilyn Monroe as one of its central examples.
This edition belongs to the Points Essais collection and appears as number 34 in the Points/Civilisation series.
May interest students and enthusiasts of sociology, communication, and film, as well as those who follow the work of Edgar Morin.
Edgar Morin was a French philosopher and sociologist of the theory of information who has been recognised for his work on complexity and "complex thought", and for his scholarly contributions to such diverse fields as media studies, politics, sociology, visual anthropology, ecology, education, and systems biology. He held two bachelors degrees, one in history and geography and one in law, and never did a Ph.D.
