  • Television in the Cinema Before 1939: an International Annotated Database, with an Introduction by Richard Koszarski
    Journal of e-Media Studies Volume 5, Issue 1, 2016 Dartmouth College Television in the Cinema Before 1939: An International Annotated Database, with an Introduction by Richard Koszarski Richard Koszarski and Doron Galili Visions of the Future An Introduction by Richard Koszarski Albert Abramson traced the first appearance of the word television to a paper presented in Paris by the Russian electrical engineer Constantin Perskyi on August 25, 1900. Perskyi discussed his own work as well as the contributions of his predecessors, such as Paul Nipkow, and suggested television as a replacement for words like telectroscope, one of many terms already in common use whenever the phenomenon of distant electric vision was under discussion. The International Electricity Congress, which heard the paper, was meeting in Paris that summer because this is where the great Exposition Universelle of 1900 was being held. For film historians, the exposition is renowned for its fabulous array of new projection technologies, involving everything from widescreen and color to talking pictures and Cineorama. Perskyi's linguistic contribution, on the other hand, is remembered only by specialists. One wonders if the proponents of the téléoscope and the téléphote, as they roamed the exposition, gave any thought to these new marvels of the cinema, and asked themselves why their medium still lagged so far behind in every conceivable measure. Seeing at a distance was a notion that had captivated engineers and entrepreneurs since word of Alexander Graham Bell's telephone first began to spread in the late 1870s, yet here it was 1900, and still only in the talking stage? People around the world had been waiting for television for decades, but the engineers had given them the cinema instead, a rival moving-image medium that appeared to have leapt from dream to multinational industry almost overnight.

  • IN the SACRED PRECINCTS—An Evil LDS Missionary
    58 I Dialogue IN THE SACRED PRECINCTS—An evil LDS missionary (Vlademar Psilander—center) performs rites in the Salt Lake Temple in the Danish-produced "A Victim of the Mormons" (1911). FROM ANTAGONISM TO ACCEPTANCE: MORMONS AND THE SILVER SCREEN RICHARD ALAN NELSON Mormons have been involved in films ever since Hollywood became a magic word. Church members first tried to influence the Hollywood establishment, then went on to create their own film industries; finally, today a corps of suc- cessful film professionals is carrying LDS values to both national and interna- tional audiences.1 Early Hollywood movies focused mainly on Mormon pioneer life with attacks upon the supposed evils of polygamy. Although most early moviemakers could not be called dedicated anti-Mormons, their unfamiliarity with LDS doctrine and history, as well as a lack of contemporary information about Utah led them to sensationalized screen interpretations. Even so respected a figure as Cecil B. DeMille, a long-time friend of President David O. McKay, was the executive producer of the anti-Mormon silent potboiler A Mormon Maid2 in 1917. This movie was typical of the attitude silent photoplay producers displayed toward the Church. A polished, though lurid, pseudo-documentary of alleged pioneer atrocities, it was undoubtedly inspired by the unprecedented appeal of the epic Birth of a Nation (1915). (Even at that early date, filmmakers were tempted to manufacture "formula pictures" in the hope of recreating the box office magic for previous successes).
