Jacques Cousteau has autobiographies written after him and he wrote a book called ‘In Search of Genius ‘again this can be linked with the concept Roland Barthes highlights in his continuation of his Roman theme, using this type of descriptive language, because linked to this word within its plural is the pursuit of transparency and critical truth for an autobiographies success. Throughout this book Barthes seems to speak for the French as a whole, and Jacques originally French does deliver the spoken parts of the DVD in English could also partly be dubbed into any langauge due to narrative and plot described throughout the documentary. Notably this word is often suggested with innocence of saints in biographies similarly though the word derives from Roman descriptive text which the earlier chapter in mythologies called Romans in Films. He goes one to describe how this is best described when challenged in some way because this demystified the true image and he says this type of analysis comes from the trick of “ Hagiographies“. (Barthes, 2000, pp.30-31) He critically explains his views on this within writers on holiday, saying ‘the establishment enslave its writers” to always portray a good image. In order to understand Jacques Cousteau brand as an image as a journalist and as a documentary that travels around the world and also touches upon Jacques Cousteau’s published interest in Genius a good text that draws from this is in the book Mythologies by Roland Barthes. I also explain how Jacques has set up his branded product, which has successfully created a branded product which has helped his family continue to make revenue from his and his teams work. That knowledge and media products are worth their weight in gold. This voice over and the strong narrative is a strong lingua franca (find a quote). The amount of talking in the show and the voice over in the show makes this a universal product. This paragraph is about the consumption of his product in Britain.

The Branding in television has been wrote about by Marcel Dunaise. The concentration is on the myth of Jacques Cousteau. I will use this for a useful resource of researching more.


I will also use Jacques Cousteau as a brand or the project the society which is listed on the video. I have also observed Jacques Cousteau narrative structures and this is something I will talk about. In a broader sense I will take media texts and summarise my angle for Jacques Cousteau Odyssey The Complete Series on Three discs. I am also going to apply some theory learned previously into this information. The literature I have reviewed is very journalist based.

In this literature review the project is a 4,500 word attempt to look at Jacques Cousteau as a figure and cultural icon.
