German film in the Wilhelmine and Weimar periods is regarded as marked by a strong sense of cultural conservatism and the aspiration to be recognized as an art form. This book takes an alternative approach to the history of German cinema from the emergence of the early feature film to the transition to sound by focusing on the poetics of popular genres such as the disaster film, melodrama, the musical and the war film, exploring their cultural reverberations and modes of audience address. Based on the assumption that popular cinema contributed immensely to the breakthrough of a modern audiovisual "culture of the senses" in Germany between 1910 and 1930, Pictorial Affects, Senses of Rupture offers close readings of a number of rarely analyzed films, including one of the first cinematic adaptations of the Titanic disaster from 1912 and the German version of All Quiet on the Western Front from 1930. Restoring the films' horizons of historicity by locating them at crucial points of intersection between social, cultural, technological and aesthetic discourses, this book argues for the prominent role popular German cinema’s own forms of discursivity have played within the historical formation of modernity.

William Thiele is remembered today as the father of the sound film operetta with seminal classics such as Drei von der Tankstelle (1930). While often considered among the most accomplished directors of Late Weimar cinema, as an Austrian Jew he was vilified during the onset of the Nazi regime in 1933 and fled to the United States where he continued making films until the end of his career in 1960. Enchanted by Cinema closely examines the European musical film pioneer’s work and his cross-cultural perspective across forty years of filmography in Berlin and Hollywood to account for his popularity while discussing issues of ethnicity, exile, comedy, music, gender, and race.

This book tells the story of German-language literature on film, beginning with pioneering motion picture adaptations of Faust in 1897 and early debates focused on high art as mass culture. It explores, analyzes and contextualizes the so-called 'golden age' of silent cinema in the 1920s, the impact of sound on adaptation practices, the abuse of literary heritage by Nazi filmmakers, and traces the role of German-language literature in exile and postwar films, across ideological boundaries in divided Germany, in New German Cinema, and in remakes and movies for cinema as well as television and streaming services in the 21st century. Having provided the narrative core to thousands of films since the late 19th century, many of German cinema's most influential masterpieces were inspired by canonical texts, popular plays, and even children's literature. Not being restricted to German adaptations, however, this book also traces the role of literature originally written in German in international film productions, which sheds light on the interrelation between cinema and key historical events. It outlines how processes of adaptation are shaped by global catastrophes and the emergence of nations, by materialist conditions, liberal economies and capitalist imperatives, political agendas, the mobility of individuals, and sometimes by the desire to create reflective surfaces and, perhaps, even art. Commercial cinema's adaptation practices have foregrounded economic interest, but numerous filmmakers throughout cinema history have turned to German-language literature not simply to entertain, but as a creative contribution to the public sphere, marking adaptation practice, at least potentially, as a form of active citizenship.

Sports and film are media that create time. They are temporal not only in the sense that they are defined and regulated by certain temporalities as a result of processes of social negotiation, but also in the sense of modulating and intervening in these processes in the first place. They are determined by multiple temporalities referring to and aligning along perceptual corporeality; but at the same time, they also produce time through and along temporalities of bodily expression and perception. Thus, as much as we perceive and understand sports and film by means of our culturally coded conceptions of time, this comprehension is itself already the product of these media’s fabrication and modulation of certain audiovisual imaginations of time. This book examines these imaginations with regard to US team sports feature films, understanding the former as the latter’s constitutive conflict which makes these films graspable as a genre in the first place. By addressing temporality as an ever-new crystallization of a heroic past and an unattainable future in a saturated yet volatile present, this conflict connects substantially to the American Dream as an idea of community-building historicity. Departing from a non-taxonomic approach in genre theory and such philosophical recognition of the American Dream as less an ideological narrative but more a social and socially effective imaginary embedded in an audiovisual discourse of time, this book demonstrates the interrelation of sports, cinema and “American” subjectivization along close readings of the poetics of affect of five exemplary sports films (FIELD OF DREAMS, WE ARE MARSHALL, KNUTE ROCKNE ALL AMERICAN, JIM THORPE – ALL-AMERICAN, MIRACLE).

Over centuries, scholars have explored how metaphor contributes to thought, language, culture. This collection of essays reflects on Müller, Kappelhoff, and colleagues’ transdisciplinary (film studies and linguistics) approach formulated in "Cinematic Metaphor: Experience – Affectivity – Temporality". The key concept of cinematic metaphor opens up reflections on metaphor as a form of embodied meaning-making in human life across disciplines. The book documents collaborative work, reflecting intense, sometimes controversial, discussions across disciplinary boundaries. In this edited volume, renowned authors explore how exposure to the framework of Cinematic Metaphor inspires their views of metaphor in film and of metaphor theory and analysis more generally. Contributions include explorations from the point of view of applied linguistics (Lynne Cameron), cognitive linguistics (Alan Cienki), media studies (Kathrin Fahlenbrach), media history (Michael Wedel), philosophy (Anne Eusterschulte), and psychology (Raymond W. Gibbs, Jr.).

Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau (1888–1931) zählt zweifellos zu den bekanntesten Namen der Filmgeschichte, seine herausragende Bedeutung für die Geschichte des deutschen und internationalen Films ist unumstritten. Zu den Regisseuren, die maßgeblich von Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau beeinflusst wurden, gehören Alfred Hitchcock, Jean Renoir, Marcel Carné, Eric Rohmer, Werner Herzog und Terrence Malick. Vor dem Hintergrund der entschiedenen Modernität der Filme seines großen Weimarer Antipoden Fritz Lang hat die Forschung dabei das Murnau-Bild eines 'tragischen Romantikers' bzw. 'melancholischen Poeten' des Kinos gezeichnet und dessen Züge vornehmlich am Beispiel einiger weniger Filme herausgearbeitet, vor allem "Nosferatu" (1921/22), "Faust" (1926), "Sunrise" (1927) und "Tabu" (1931). Der Band möchte das vorherrschende Murnau-Bild hinterfragen, wo nötig korrigieren und sein Werk neuen Zugängen öffnen. Dazu befassen sich die Beiträge nicht nur mit einzelnen Filmen Murnaus, sondern unternehmen werkübergreifende thematische, motivische und ästhetische Erkundungen. In ihnen sollen neue Konstellationen sichtbar gemacht sowie Kontexte und Perspektiven erschlossen werden, die bisher nicht im Fokus der Beschäftigung mit Murnau gestanden haben.

Keine andere deutsche Filmfirma genießt einen solchen Ruf wie die Ufa. Im In- und Ausland war und ist ihr Name ein Synonym für großes Kino, aber auch für seine Verquickung mit verdeckten wirtschaftlichen, politischen und ideologischen Interessen. Im Dezember 1917 gegründet auf Betreiben von Militär und Deutscher Bank, entstand mit der Ufa der erste vertikal organisierte Medienkonzern in Deutschland. In den 1920er Jahren stand die Ufa für künstlerische Prestigefilme, weltweite Expansion und Popularität; unter dem NS-Regime wurde sie gleichgeschaltet und verstaatlicht und nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg von den Alliierten gezielt zerschlagen. Von Beginn an versuchte die Ufa eine zweigleisige Strategie – sie produzierte monumentale Spielfilme für den Export und Genrekino für den nationalen Markt. Dieses Wechselspiel von internationaler und nationaler Ausrichtung wird in "Ufa international" aus vielen Perspektiven neu untersucht: Die Beiträge reichen von Analysen zu den wirtschaftlichen Strukturen des bis 1927 hoch verschuldeten Konzerns, über Alfred Hitchcocks Lehrjahren bei der Ufa und der erzwungenen Zusammenarbeit mit amerikanischen Studios, Strategien der Firmenwerbung, den Aktivitäten in Asien, Südamerika und in Frankreich, dem Ufa-Kulturfilm als Exportartikel bis hin zur Entlassung und Verfolgung jüdischer Ufa-Mitarbeiter nach 1933 und bisher wenig beleuchteten Aspekten der Firmengeschichte nach 1945.

В коллективной монографии представлены два взаимосвязанных подхода к исследованию феномена полимодальности (мультимодальности): изучение полимодального дискурса и применение полимодальных технологий для дискурсивного анализа. Таким образом, полимодальность впервые показана одновременно как свойство дискурса и как исследовательская установка. На материале русского, английского и немецкого языков анализируются устный и письменный дискурс в его разных проявлениях – устные описания произведений живописи, театральные постановки, кинодискурс, романы, социальные плакаты. Исследования выполнены с когнитивных позиций, и взаимодействия разных модальностей (речи и жестов, речи и видеоряда, текста и изображения) изучаются с точки зрения когнитивных механизмов (де)фокусирования, концептуальной интеграции, резонанса, фиктивной коммуникации, лежащих в основе согласования разных семиотических систем в дискурсе.
