Opis

Traditionally, the cinema of the Weimar Republic has been equated with the work of a handful of well-known auteurist filmmakers and reduced to a limited number of canonical films. Often enough, a single, limited phenomenon, "expressionist film," has been taken as synonymous with the cinema of the entire period. But during the past two decades, such reductive assessments have been challenged by developments in film theory and archival research that highlight the tremendous richness and diversity of Weimar cinema. This widening of focus beyond director-oriented criticism has brought attention to issues such as the commodity aspect of film; technological developments and questions of film genre; transnational collaborations and questions of national identity; the effect of changes in socioeconomics and gender roles on film spectatorship; and connections between film and other arts and media. Such shifts have been accompanied by archival research that has made a cornucopia of new information available, now augmented by the increased availability of films from the period on DVD. This broadening of focus and wealth of new source material call for a re-evaluation of Weimar cinema that considers the legacies of lesser-known directors and producers, popular genres, experiments of the artistic avant-garde, and nonfiction films, all of which are aspects attended to by the essays in this volume. ~~~~~ CONTRIBUTORS: Ofer Ashkenazi, Jaimey Fisher, Veronika Fuechtner, Joseph Garncarz, Barbara Hales, Anjeana Hans, Richard W.
