In exploring issues of class, gender, nation, and conflict by means of close analysis, the course seeks to sensitize students to the cultural context of these films and the changing socio-political and historical climates in which they arose. Special attention will be paid to the issue of film style. We will also reflect on what constitutes the “canon” when discussing films, especially those of recent vintage. Directors include Robert Wiene, F.W. Murnau, Fritz Lang, Lotte Reiniger, Leni Riefenstahl, Alexander Kluge, Volker Schlöndorff, Werner Herzog, Wim Wenders, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Andreas Dresen, Christian Petzold, Jessica Hausner, Michael Haneke, Angela Schanelec, Barbara Albert.

  • Lola L981 Werner Fassbinder
    HUMANITIES INSTITUTE Frederic Will, Ph.D. Lola l981 Werner Fassbinder. (1945-1982) STORY Werner Fassbinder always has an eye out for the texture of his own culture. While this broad social- political look is the driver of his BRD trilogy—a trilogy concerning the German state in the fifties, the period of the Wirtschaftswunder under the leadership of Konrad Adenauer—it was ever present even in those less ideological films—Gods of the Plague, Beware of a Holy Whore, or The Merchant of Four Seasons, which target individuals from specific social realms, retail or industrial film making, or the gay underworld, guys and environments that bespoke the commercial-material confidence of the Adenauer years (1949-63) but also the rot and moral confusion that underlay those years. In the Bundesrepublik Deutschland trilogy, the drama of survival under prosperity is thoroughly examined—the three films in question, The Marriage of Maria Braun, Lola, and Veronika Voss, all involved with issues driven by the concerns of strong women who become centers of power machination. Lola drives straight into the complexities of the industrialization of a fast moving industrial complex, allegedly the city of Coburg, in fifties West Germany. Starting. The film opens with a face to face between Lola and one of her two principal lovers, a young leftist who works as a drummer for the brothel where Lola herself is employed. We soon meet her second lover, Schuckert, who is the town’s major building contractor; Schuckert uses the brothel, which he owns, as a meeting place and ‘entertainment palace’ for his influential local power figures—the banker, the mayor, the top business men—who are currently involved in financing a huge building construction scheme.

  • Newsletter 2004/2005
    THE FASSBINDER FOUNDATION Newsletter 2004/2005 Dear Friends, Partners, Followers and Supporters of RWFF and FF Inc., Since we did not send out a Newsletter last year we thought we should not delay in sending you this year's Newsletter before the spring is out. To start with, there is one especially good piece of news: we have "modernized" our website. In future, you will be able to find the latest reports and information at www.fassbinderfoundation.de under the heading NEWS. The German version is running since March 1, 2005, the English version will be ready shortly, and the French version from April 1, 2005 on. It is not only past events which we have cause to celebrate. We were particularly delighted to move offices in December 2003 to our new base at Giesebrechtstrasse 7, which is in the Berlin district of Charlottenburg not far from the Kurfürstendamm. Our new premises have been specially designed for our needs, and the move was organized so impeccably by our employee and Curator Dr. Daniel Kletke, who heads up logistics and coordination, that just one day after the official moving date, we were able to resume daily business. Since 2000 –and thus also last year –the focus of our work has been on the development and prepa- ration of our extensive RWF manuscript archive as well as preparations for releasing further Fass- binder films on DVD. With 24 titles having been released in the USA to date, this year we are launch- ing DVD editions in France, Belgium, Spain and Japan. From April 2005, the titles of sets 3 and 4 al- ready announced by e-m-s will be continued by Kinowelt Home Entertainment under the Arthaus label.

  • Black Voices, German Rebels: Acts of Masculinity in Postwar Popular Culture
    Black Voices, German Rebels: Acts of Masculinity in Postwar Popular Culture By Priscilla Dionne Layne A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in German and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Deniz Göktürk, Chair Professor Anton Kaes Professor Jocelyne Guilbault Spring 2011 Abstract Black Voices, German Rebels: Acts of Masculinity in Postwar Popular Culture by Priscilla Dionne Layne Doctor of Philosophy in German and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Deniz Göktürk, Chair This dissertation examines practices of embodying Black popular culture in Germany. My analysis is based on close readings of texts from a variety of media including novels, films and musical theater from West and East Germany of the 1950s to the reunified Germany of the 1990s. Black popular culture, particularly popular music, has appealed to Germans since the 19th century, when the Fisk Jubilee singers toured Europe. In most of my analyses, music plays a prominent role as a gateway to Black popular culture. Stuart Hall defines Black popular culture as a product of the African Diaspora, therefore it is produced in a space populated by people who are linked to many different geographic locales. Nevertheless, in the texts I examine, the African American contribution to this culture is given precedent. This preference for African American culture is based on an articulation of factors, including the large presence of African American GIs in occupied postwar Germany and German stereotypes that designate African Americans as both primitive and modern, oppressed victims yet also producers of incredibly different, liberating styles.

    Prof. Fatima Naqvi [email protected] Fall 2010 16:470:672 (cross-listed with 16:195:609) 172 College Avenue German Film from 1945 to the Present Sessions: Tuesdays 4:30-7:00 Office hours: Thursday 11:00-12:00 or by appointment Description: We will look at a variety of feature films in German after 1945 to focus on issues of guilt, remembrance (and its counterpart: amnesia), gender, Heimat or “homeland,” national self-fashioning, and trauma. How do the Second World War and its legacy inflect these films? What other socio-political and economic factors influence the private and collective identities that these films articulate? How do the predominant concerns shift with the passage of time? How is the category of “nation” constructed and how is it contested within the narratives themselves? Close attention will be paid to aesthetic issues and the concept of “authorship.” Readings and discussions will be in English. Readers of German and French are encouraged to read the texts in the original where possible. The readings are all on reserve. Students should watch the films twice and take notes. The films will be available at the Media Library on Douglass Campus for repeated viewings.
