An Artist from Germany« Special Exhibition at the Filmmuseum Berlin 24 November 2005 to 17 April 2006 Publication / Book for the exhibition Published by Bertz + Fischer Verlag Hildegard Knef (28 December 1925 – 1 February 2002) was an actress of the stage and screen, as well as a singer, painter and book author. She lived in Europe and the USA, and starred in films made in France, Italy, England, Germany and Hollywood. She performed in musicals on Broadway, toured concert halls and theaters, and received awards from many countries. Celebrated by her admirers for her many talents, ridiculed by her critics, Hildegard Knef had to work most of her life. To do so she used the media just as they were to use her, at first profiting from her controversial reputation, later from her great popularity. This book, which is rich in illustrations, has been published in honour of what would have been Hildegard Knef’s 80th birthday. It includes previously unobtainable material and photos from her estate. It explores in detail the many facets of her work and life, her triumphs and failures, changes in identity and media images, as well as how she was perceived by the public. The book also reveals the complex relationship between Knef’s life and cultural, political, educational and social developments in the Federal Republic of Germany. There is a foreword by Hans Helmut Prinzler, essays by Kristina Jaspers, Klaus Kreimeier, Peter Mänz, Felix Moeller, Iris Radisch, Daniela Sannwald, Christian Schröder, Werner Sudendorf, Vera Thomas and Nils Warnecke; a photo series by Ulrich Mack and Ingo Taubhorn; as well as contributions by Karlheinz Böhm, Till Brönner, David Cameron, Christina Gardiner, Ralph Giordano, F.

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

  • Operetta After the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen a Dissertation
    Operetta after the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Elaine Tennant Spring 2013 © 2013 Ulrike Petersen All Rights Reserved Abstract Operetta after the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair This thesis discusses the political, social, and cultural impact of operetta in Vienna after the collapse of the Habsburg Empire. As an alternative to the prevailing literature, which has approached this form of musical theater mostly through broad surveys and detailed studies of a handful of well‐known masterpieces, my dissertation presents a montage of loosely connected, previously unconsidered case studies. Each chapter examines one or two highly significant, but radically unfamiliar, moments in the history of operetta during Austria’s five successive political eras in the first half of the twentieth century. Exploring operetta’s importance for the image of Vienna, these vignettes aim to supply new glimpses not only of a seemingly obsolete art form but also of the urban and cultural life of which it was a part. My stories evolve around the following works: Der Millionenonkel (1913), Austria’s first feature‐length motion picture, a collage of the most successful stage roles of a celebrated

  • Hildchens Legenden finden Die Neo-Menschen Kein Glück
    Kultur die Begierde ganz erlischt. „Jugend, Schön- heit, Kraft: Die Kriterien der körperlichen Liebe sind dieselben wie bei den Nazis“, schreibt Houellebecq alias Daniel. Im kaum auszuhaltenden Endstadium wird der Sex eine reine Causa mentalis: Das arme Opfer mit dem „Körper eines alten Mannes voller jugendlichem Begehren“ denkt nur noch an Sex. Damit erlischt das Leben, denn alle Energie ist sexueller Art. Daniel, der wie verrückt seiner entschwun- denen Esther nachstellt, begeht folgerichtig Selbstmord, und Houellebecq prophezeit den Menschen eine schon bald drastisch sin- kende Lebenserwartung, auf gut 50 Jahre für Frauen und gut 60 für Männer. Der Wunsch nach Unsterblichkeit hinge- gen erhält sich; er ist sogar das Einzige, was von den Religionen übrig bleibt. Da- niel1 ist der Sekte der Elohim beigetreten, die ihren Jüngern ewige Wiedergeburt dank revolutionärer Reproduktionstechni- ken verheißt, besserer noch als Klonen: Die lästige Kindheitsphase wird über- sprungen, beim Tod des alten das neue Ex- emplar binnen 24, höchstens 48 Stunden geliefert. Das ist Dienst am Kunden. So kommt es, dass Daniel mitsamt seinem Hund Fox genetisch überlebt, ohne dersel- be zu sein. Denn beim Neo-Menschen wur- den die Auslöser des Leidens weggezüchtet – und mithin alle Triebe und Gefühle. Die Neo-Menschen leben in scheinbar reiner Rationalität, streng isoliert, und kommuni- zieren nur elektronisch miteinander. Allein BILDERDIENST / ULLSTEIN KPA eine abgeschwächte, untragische, nur le- Weltstar Knef (sechziger Jahre): Lebensbericht mit Auslassungen und Schönfärbereien benserhaltende Energie wurde ihnen be- wahrt, die ausreicht, das Denkvermögen als befreites Denken zu gewährleisten.

  • From Nazism to the Cold War, by Mila Ganeva. Random House, 2018, 256 Pp
    Alphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media no. 18, 2019, pp. 248–252 DOI: https://doi.org/10.33178/alpha.18.25 Film and Fashion amidst the Ruins of Berlin: From Nazism to the Cold War, by Mila Ganeva. Random House, 2018, 256 pp. Boel Ulfsdotter Over the past ten years, Mila Ganeva has written two books in the series Screen Cultures: German Film and the Visual published by Camden House. Both studies map German visual culture in relation to female agency, starting with the Weimar years, 1918–1933, in the first book, and moving on to what the Germans call the “long decade”, stretching from 1939– 1955, in the second. In the latter volume, Ganeva focuses on film and fashion from the perspective of German female consumers and spectators, and it is immediately obvious that her engagement with cinema is presented without any auxiliary theoretical discussion regarding the remits of either mass culture or visual studies. In particular, the study would have benefitted from a short introduction of the “rubble film” (films set in a city or landscape of ruins), preferably based on Robert Shandley’s study, which is also referenced in the book’s bibliography. I find it particularly odd that she does not link her own study more intimately with Hester Baer’s work on the topic in order to map out her subject matter for the reader, in the introductory chapter (Dismantling; “Film”). In terms of content, Film and Fashion Amidst the Ruins of Berlin: From Nazism to the Cold War consists of five chapters, and two case studies which Ganeva calls “Vignettes”.

I am grateful to the Department of History at the University of Texas at Austin, for its consistent support of my graduate studies. Years of Teaching Assistantships followed by Assistant Instructor positions have allowed me to remain financially afloat, a vital condition for the completion of any dissertation. Grants from the Dora Bonham Memorial Fund and the Centennial Graduate Student Support Fund enabled me to travel to conferences and present the preliminary results of my work, leading to fruitful discussions and great improvements. The Continuing Fellowship supported a year of dissertation writing. Without the help of Marilyn Lehman, Graduate Coordinator, most of this would not have been possible and I am grateful for her help. I must also thank the German Academic Exchange Service, DAAD, for granting me two extensive scholarships which allowed me to travel to Germany.

The singer was Champion Jack Dupree, who, like many american blues and jazz musicians, was touring Europe, where he could make a better living than in the US. There, the audience had long turned towards psychedelic and folk rock, losing interest in the older blues, soul and rock’n roll acts that had dominated the late 1950’s. At the time, I was only three years old, so I am not sure if I genuinely remember anything about that evening. But my parents told me that I was so thrilled with Champion Jack Dupree, that at one point, I slid out of the church bench and speeded towards the low stage where the singer played his piano. He picked me up with a big smile, and let me sit on his knee for the entire song. Maybe that was the moment when I was first infected with the virus that would stay with me my whole life: american pop music, especially blues, jazz, soul, funk, and rock. In 1991, I had already built a considerable record collection, wherever I went, I was roaming the record stores, thrift stores and flea markets.

    Irmgard Knef Biografie Irmgard Knef, ist die 10 Minuten jüngere, Zwillingsschwester von Hildegard Knef, also Jahrgang 1925, geboren am 28.12. in Ulm.

Sie arbeitet u.a. als Eintänzerin, Bordunterhalterin, Filmkleindarstellerin und Sprecherin bei der Deutschen Bundespost. Politisch engagiert sie sich für die Gebeutelten und Zukurzgekommenen der Gesellschaft, schreibt Autobiographisches und gründet eine Selbsthilfegruppe, den Verein „Sorella non grata e.V.“ für Schwestern im Schatten berühmter Persönlichkeiten. Ganz Knef ist auch sie eine Kämpfernatur mit Herz und Verstand, einer Berliner Schnauze mit Esprit und einem Humor der trotz Feinheit auch mal derb sein kann.
