Book Film History for the Anthropocene

Download or read book Film History for the Anthropocene written by Seth Peabody and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2023 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From its beginnings, some of German film's most prominent genres and directors have focused on the natural world and its transformations by humans. Heimat films, "city symphonies," mountain films, and rubble films all blend the boundary between landscape documentary and fiction film. Yet German film studies has been slow to adopt an environmental focus, concentrating (understandably) on its subject matter's political implications. This book reveals critical connections between German film, sociopolitical context, and environment, showing it to have been a creative catalyst for the social and ecological transformation of the Anthropocene. The book first considers the interplay between German film and environmental history in films and discourses of Heimat. Weimar-era films such as E. A. Dupont's Die Geierwally (1921), Carl Ludwig Achaz-Duisberg's Sprengbagger 1010 (1929), and Phil Jèutzi's Hunger in Waldenburg (1929) document and create a forum for discussing environmental change. The book then looks at film as a visual archive of and catalyst for infrastructure development, focusing on Metropolis (Fritz Lang, 1927), the mountain films of Arnold Fanck, and the Berlin films Stadt der Millionen (Adolf Trotz, 1925), Berlin: Die Sinfonie der Grossstadt (Walter Ruttmann, 1927), and Menschen am Sonntag (1930). Nazi-era and postwar films are also examined. By exploring German film history alongside environmental history and theory, this book provides a case study of the power of film within processes of environmental transformation"--

Download or read book Empire in the Heimat written by Willeke Sandler and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-09 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the end of the First World War, Germany became a "post-colonial" power. The Treaty of Versailles in 1919 transformed Germany's overseas colonies in Africa and the Pacific into League of Nations Mandates, administered by other powers. Yet a number of Germans rejected this "post-colonial" status, arguing instead that Germany was simply an interrupted colonial power and would soon reclaim these territories. With the Nazi seizure of power in 1933, irredentism seemed once again on the agenda, and these colonialist advocates actively and loudly promoted their colonial cause in the Third Reich. Examining the domestic activities of these colonialist lobbying organizations, Empire in the Heimat demonstrates the continued place of overseas colonialism in shaping German national identity after the end of formal empire. In the Third Reich, the Deutsche Kolonialgesellschaft and the Reichskolonialbund framed Germans as having a particular aptitude for colonialism and the overseas territories as a German Heimat. As such, they sought to give overseas colonialism renewed meaning for both the present and the future of Nazi Germany. They brought this message to the German public through countless publications, exhibitions, rallies, lectures, photographs, and posters. Their public activities were met with a mix of occasional support, ambivalence, or even outright opposition from some Nazi officials, who privileged the Nazi regime's European territorial goals over colonialists' overseas goals. Colonialists' ability to navigate this obstruction and intervention reveals both the limitations and the spaces available in the public sphere under Nazism for such "special interest" discourses.

Book Generational Shifts in Contemporary German Culture

Download or read book Generational Shifts in Contemporary German Culture written by Laurel Cohen-Pfister and published by Camden House. This book was released on 2010 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of the generation in today's German culture and literature, and its role in German identity. In the debates since 1945 on German history and culture, the concept of generations has become ever more prominent. Recent and ongoing shifts in how the various generations are seen -- and see themselves -- in relation to historyand to each other have taken on key importance in contemporary German cultural studies. The seismic events of twentieth-century German history are no longer solely first-generational lived experiences but are also historical moments seen through the eyes of successor generations. The generation, seen as a category of memory, thus holds a key to major shifts in German identity. The changing generational perspectives of German writers and filmmakers not onlyreflect but also influence these trends, exposing both the expected differences between generational views and unexpected continuities. Moreover, as younger artists reframe recent history, older generations like the 1968ers are also contributing to these shifts by reassessing their own experiences and cultural contributions. This volume of new essays applies current discourse on generations in German culture to contemporary works dealing with major sociohistorical events since the Nazi period.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 768 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Times Places Passages: Ethnological Approaches in the New Millennium, was the theme expressed in the title of the Seventh International Congress of the Socit Internationale dEthnologie et de Folklore (SIEF) in Budapest. This ethnological congress, held at the beginning of the new millennium, takes its inaugural role seriously. What is demanded from us is that we should try to imagine what will happen to human society, and that we should be prepared for the historical moment of transition. We should know where we have come from, where we are now, and where we are going in the new era we are entering. These tasks require a critical and reflective discussion of the theoretical and methodological possibilities of ethnology, including the new politics of forming ethnological knowledge in a global world. This book is a selection of the papers presented at the congress and contains approximately 80 articles.

Book Screening Nostalgia

Download or read book Screening Nostalgia written by Alexandra Ludewig and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Heimat film genre, assumed to be outdated by so many, is very much alive. Who would have thought that this genre - which has been almost unanimously denounced within academic circles, but which seems to resonate so deeply with the general public - would experience a renaissance in the 21st century? The genre's recent resurgence is perhaps due less to an obsession with generic storylines and stereotyped figures than to a basic human need for grounding that has resulted in a passionate debate about issues of past and present. This book traces the history of the Heimat film genre from the early mountain films to Fatih Akin's contemporary interpretations of Heimat.
