Sep. 2021 THE REDEMPTION OF PHYSICAL REALITY: FILMS FROM THE BERLIN SCHOOL THROUGH THE LENS OF SIEGFRIED KRACAUER’S MATERIAL AESTHETICS André Hammelmann PhD in German Studies 2 Abstract This thesis explores the contemporaneity of Siegfried Kracauer’s conception of cinema as outlined in his book Theory of Film: The Redemption of Physical Reality, first published in 1960, and defined by Kracauer as a study of “material aesthetics.” Though the book is often seen solely as a contribution, albeit a significant one, to so-called classical film theory, in this study I want to make the case for the ongoing relevance of Kracauer’s notion of the medium, presenting ways of making his approach productive for the examination of contemporary cinema. As case studies, I have chosen films associated with the Berlin School, a group of contemporary German filmmakers whose material realism strikes me as ideally suited for discussions in relation to Kracauer’s material aesthetics. This is what I aim to do in this study: bringing together Kracauer’s idea of cinema’s redemptive potential for re-experiences of the material world with contemporary realist filmmaking. However, I do not consider Theory of Film a dogmatic manual of cinematic realism but an open text that raises significant issues about the medium’s relationship with reality. Thus, rather than aiming to prove Kracauer’s film theory right or wrong, I want to use the book as a toolbox to think about contemporary cinema and the current possibilities for experiences of reality. In so doing, this study, I hope, will help to open up a discussion on the relevance of Kracauer’s Theory of Film for current realist approaches not only in the Berlin School films that are my object, but in world cinema. 3 Table of Contents ABSTRACT ...................................................................................................... 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS

  • 1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in the Guardian, June 2007
    1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in The Guardian, June 2007 http://film.guardian.co.uk/1000films/0,,2108487,00.html Ace in the Hole (Billy Wilder, 1951) Prescient satire on news manipulation, with Kirk Douglas as a washed-up hack making the most of a story that falls into his lap. One of Wilder's nastiest, most cynical efforts, who can say he wasn't actually soft-pedalling? He certainly thought it was the best film he'd ever made. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (Tom Shadyac, 1994) A goofy detective turns town upside-down in search of a missing dolphin - any old plot would have done for oven-ready megastar Jim Carrey. A ski-jump hairdo, a zillion impersonations, making his bum "talk" - Ace Ventura showcases Jim Carrey's near-rapturous gifts for physical comedy long before he became encumbered by notions of serious acting. An Actor's Revenge (Kon Ichikawa, 1963) Prolific Japanese director Ichikawa scored a bulls-eye with this beautifully stylized potboiler that took its cues from traditional Kabuki theatre. It's all ballasted by a terrific double performance from Kazuo Hasegawa both as the female-impersonator who has sworn vengeance for the death of his parents, and the raucous thief who helps him. The Addiction (Abel Ferrara, 1995) Ferrara's comic-horror vision of modern urban vampires is an underrated masterpiece, full- throatedly bizarre and offensive. The vampire takes blood from the innocent mortal and creates another vampire, condemned to an eternity of addiction and despair. Ferrara's mob movie The Funeral, released at the same time, had a similar vision of violence and humiliation.

  • Mapping Topographies in the Anglo and German Narratives of Joseph Conrad, Anna Seghers, James Joyce, and Uwe Johnson
    MAPPING TOPOGRAPHIES IN THE ANGLO AND GERMAN NARRATIVES OF JOSEPH CONRAD, ANNA SEGHERS, JAMES JOYCE, AND UWE JOHNSON DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kristy Rickards Boney, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Professor Helen Fehervary, Advisor Professor John Davidson Professor Jessica Prinz Advisor Graduate Program in Professor Alexander Stephan Germanic Languages and Literatures Copyright by Kristy Rickards Boney 2006 ABSTRACT While the “space” of modernism is traditionally associated with the metropolis, this approach leaves unaddressed a significant body of work that stresses non-urban settings. Rather than simply assuming these spaces to be the opposite of the modern city, my project rejects the empty term space and instead examines topographies, literally meaning the writing of place. Less an examination of passive settings, the study of topography in modernism explores the action of creating spaces—either real or fictional which intersect with a variety of cultural, social, historical, and often political reverberations. The combination of charged elements coalesce and form a strong visual, corporeal, and sensory-filled topography that becomes integral to understanding not only the text and its importance beyond literary studies. My study pairs four modernists—two writing in German and two in English: Joseph Conrad and Anna Seghers and James Joyce and Uwe Johnson. All writers, having experienced displacement through exile, used topographies in their narratives to illustrate not only their understanding of history and humanity, but they also wrote narratives which concerned a larger global ii community.

Dann Musik „Die kleine Nachtmusik“, zur Unterlegung unter den nächsten OT OT Jiggs Whigham: „Ich glaube, es gibt schon seit Jahrhunderten Easy-Listening-Musik, also, wenn man eine ‚Kleine Nachtmusik’ von Mozart beobachtet, das ist schon Easy Listening. Im Gegensatz zu Mozarts ‚Requiem’, das ist natürlich sehr - 2 - ernstes Zeug. Obwohl alle beide fantastisch sind, gab’s immer diese zu entspannende Musik. (…) ich finde es aber sehr, sehr schade, fast tragisch, dass das wird oft beobachtet als Zweite-Klasse-Musik. Und ich bin ganz andere Einstellung. Ich habe ein Problem mit Leuten, die sagt, das ist alles Schrott, das ist zu leicht. Entschuldige bitte! Dann sage ich: dann schreiben Sie acht Takte, so halbwegs gut wie diese Musik. In diese Musik gibt es schon einige Arrangements und Melodien, zum Beispiel bei Kaempfert, die sind genial einfach. Wenn man die Musik vom Kaempfert überlegt, ich bin auch dafür da, um über seine Musik zu sprechen, (…) wenn einer es versucht, so simpel, so eine simple Melodie zu schreiben, Ladadi-da-da (singt) aber es ist wahnsinnig schön, das ist eine wunderbare Melodie, und das ist gar nicht 2.
