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.

  • Cinematic Potentialities and the Student of Prague (1913) Matt Rossoni
    Kino: The Western Undergraduate Journal of Film Studies Volume 4 | Issue 1 Article 9 2013 Cinematic Potentialities and The Student of Prague (1913) Matt Rossoni Keywords Student of Prague, Stellen Rye, German art film, early cinema, national cinema Recommended Citation Rossoni, Matt (2013) "Cinematic Potentialities and The Student of Prague (1913)," Kino: The Western Undergraduate Journal of Film Studies: Vol. 4 : Iss. 1 , Article 9. Rossoni: The Student of Prague Cinematic Potentialities and The Student of Prague (1913) by Matt Rossoni Stellen Rye’s 1913 release, Der Student von Prag (translated, The Student of Prague), was praised as ‘the first German art film.’ While it is always difficult to pinpoint a film as being the ‘first’ of its kind – competing closely with this particular claim is Max Mack’s short film Der Andere, also 1913 – historical circumstances were fertile for a film like The Student of Prague to emerge. At an international level, cinema was still predominantly regarded as a form of low entertainment, still caught up in its fairground origins. Debates about cinema were largely concerned with why or why it should not be considered art, especially in comparison to theatre. Artists and theorists working from both inside and outside the scope of film analysis, including, as is particularly important in the case of The Student of Prague, the burgeoning study of psychoanalysis contributed to this debate with varying attitudes, ranging from total embracement to sheer revulsion. The Student of Prague provided an important point of negotiation in such debates, attempting to win over conservative views of art while at the same time, taking a drastic step forward in terms of forming a uniquely cinematic language.

In what follows, I hope I may call him Philipp--having been first a graduate student in one of his courses at Harvard, then his teaching assistant sharing his offices, then for many years his colleague and friend in the same Physics Department, and finally, doing research on his archival holdings kept at Harvard. I also should not hide my large personal debt to him, for without his recommendation in the 1950s to the Albert Einstein Estate, I would not have received its warm welcome and its permission, as the first one to do historical research in the treasure trove of unpublished letters and manuscripts, thus starting me on a major part of my career in the history of science.

Mémoire sur l’action mutuelle d’un conducteur voltaïque et d’un aimant. Offprint from Nouveaux Mémoires de l’Académie royale des sciences et belles-lettres de Bruxelles, tome IV, 1827. Bound with 18 other pamphlets (listed below). [Colophon:] Brussels: Hayez, Imprimeur de l’Académie Royale, 1827. $38,000 4to (265 x 205 mm). Contemporary quarter-cloth and plain boards (very worn and broken, with most of the spine missing), entirely unrestored. Preserved in a custom cloth box. First edition of the very rare offprint, with the most desirable imaginable provenance: this copy is inscribed by Ampère to Michael Faraday. It thus links the two great founders of electromagnetism, following its discovery by Hans Christian Oersted (1777-1851) in April 1820. The discovery by Ampère (1775-1836), late in the same year, of the force acting between current-carrying conductors was followed a year later by Faraday’s (1791-1867) first great discovery, that of electromagnetic rotation, the first conversion of electrical into mechanical energy. This development was a challenge to Ampère’s mathematically formulated explanation of electromagnetism as a manifestation of currents of electrical fluids surrounding ‘electrodynamic’ molecules; indeed, Faraday directly criticised Ampère’s theory, preferring his own explanation in terms of ‘lines of force’ (which had to wait for James Clerk Maxwell (1831-79) for a precise mathematical formulation).

In my view the School constitutes not only a method for develop- ing norms of private law out of the historical materials of Roman and German-Germanic laws, but is based on a wider conception of culture, law and history that is also connected to the political positions of that time. In Savigny’s founding pam- phlet, »The vocation of our time ...«, two major theoretical topics for this long-lasting influence can be found: The Romantic one, which views law as a part of culture and parallel to language and cus- tom, based on the »spirit of the people«, and, on the other side, the rationality of the European tradition of Roman law, which was developed and administered by jurists.These two basic points, in part standing in contradiction to one another, form a fertile tension that provides an impulse to the intellectual discussions and new movements in jurisprudence and history analysed in the text.
