  • Italian Cinema As Literary Art UNO Rome Summer Study Abroad 2019 Dr
    ENGL 2090: Italian Cinema as Literary Art UNO Rome Summer Study Abroad 2019 Dr. Lisa Verner [email protected] COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course surveys Italian cinema during the postwar period, charting the rise and fall of neorealism after the fall of Mussolini. Neorealism was a response to an existential crisis after World War II, and neorealist films featured stories of the lower classes, the poor, and the oppressed and their material and ethical struggles. After the fall of Mussolini’s state sponsored film industry, filmmakers filled the cinematic void with depictions of real life and questions about Italian morality, both during and after the war. This class will chart the rise of neorealism and its later decline, to be replaced by films concerned with individual, as opposed to national or class-based, struggles. We will consider the films in their historical contexts as literary art forms. REQUIRED TEXTS: Rome, Open City, director Roberto Rossellini (1945) La Dolce Vita, director Federico Fellini (1960) Cinema Paradiso, director Giuseppe Tornatore (1988) Life is Beautiful, director Roberto Benigni (1997) Various articles for which the instructor will supply either a link or a copy in an email attachment LEARNING OUTCOMES: At the completion of this course, students will be able to 1-understand the relationship between Italian post-war cultural developments and the evolution of cinema during the latter part of the 20th century; 2-analyze film as a form of literary expression; 3-compose critical and analytical papers that explore film as a literary, artistic, social and historical construct. GRADES: This course will require weekly short papers (3-4 pages, double spaced, 12- point font); each @ 20% of final grade) and a final exam (20% of final grade).

  • The Odyssey of Fellini Kayla Knuth
    ISSUE #1 | JULY 2020 The Odyssey of Fellini Kayla Knuth Making raw cinematic artistry work on the big screen can be extremely challenging, and directors such as Federico Fellini meet that challenge by giving us unique films, each with a clear vision. There are many masterful auteurs within the film industry, but there is something about Fellini’s good-natured style that truly engages me, along with how he incorporates elements of both reality and fantasy in iconic films such as La Strada (1953), La Dolce Vita (1961), and 8 ½ (1963). Not everyone is capable of digging deeper into what the artist is actually saying, and many are too quick to make harsh judgements about what they see rather than what they interpret. This is another reason why his film work interests me. I enjoy the “chase” that helps me provide a deeper analysis of what certain scenes in his films actually symbolize. This makes me pay closer attention to the films, and I find myself rewinding scenes, taking a step back to investigate the meaning of what I’m seeing. Almost all of Fellini’s films feature a dominant protagonist character with qualities to which the audience can at least secretly relate. Some of Fellini’s most striking cinematic moments are memorable because of characters that tend to stick with you even when the films become unclear at times. In addition, the artistry, passion, zest for life, and inven- tiveness on display in his filmmaking help us appreciate a wide range of possibilities for cinematic representation. Aesthetically, Fellini’s films reach for what I will call “ugliness within beauty.” His films seem to ask: is there beauty to be found within ugliness? Or is there ugliness lurking within the beautiful? Fellini attempts to ask these questions through both his striking visuals and sympathetic characters.

An innovativeprogram designed to meet this need was introduced at St. Gregory's College.The course dealt with the history and thegrammar of the medium, the film in relation to other art forms, and the film as an artistic estheticexperience. Methods of instruction included lectures, screening of films, discussions ingroups and as an entire class, and reading and summarizing film reviews. The class met three hoursa week for 16 weeks. Projects were the preparation of portfolios containing critic and student filmreviews or the preparation of a 5- to 10-minute filmgrammar and technique. At the conclusion of the course, the 42 students were asked to evaluate the objectives, filmselections, and course content.Allstudents agreed thatthe proposed objectives had been accomplished. With fewexceptions, the students agreed that the films screened adequately represented the academicarea under study. As a result of the evaluation it was decided that (1) the attemptto offer a comparative study of the filmin relation to other art forms should be eliminated, (2)the order in which the materialwas presented should be altered, and (3)more concentration should be given to the era of the 1930's.

In studying the history of motion pictures, we will take into account not only the major figures who influenced their development both technologically and aesthetically, but also the cultural influences, politics, and economic factors that helped shape them. We will consider the development of motion pictures as a narrative form, cultural commodity, political object, art form, and avenue of escapist entertainment. One of the keys emphases in the class will be the historical intersections of various sites of cultural production (movies, television, advertising, censorship, political propaganda, etc.) and how they influence and shape each other. Because the breadth of international film history far exceeds what can be covered in a single semester, this course will focus most heavily on the history of film in the United States, although we also look at various historical moments in the Soviet Union, Japan, France, Germany, Italy, and Poland.
