Cartoons represent a very substantial chapter of culture.
If we were to build a history of art nowadays, something of an encyclopedic genre, like the Larousse, and omit to include in it the cartoons, this would prove that we didn t understand a thing of the art of the past 50- 60 years. We should, therefore, try to retrieve a vision, if not totally positive, then at least fair, of the cartoons as an important cultural area. I emphasize, cultural, not merely artistic. Therefore I propose to broaden our vision a little and focus our attention on the origins of the cartoons, as well as on its by products. This is why we accepted to speak of fairy tale, of the tale in general as precursory to the cartoons since they too share similar descriptions of spaces and architectures.
