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 -

The Museum of Modern Art Celebrates Vienna's Rich
THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART CELEBRATES VIENNA’S RICH CINEMATIC HISTORY WITH MAJOR COLLABORATIVE EXHIBITION Vienna Unveiled: A City in Cinema Is Held in Conjunction with Carnegie Hall’s Citywide Festival Vienna: City of Dreams, and Features Guest Appearances by VALIE EXPORT and Jem Cohen Vienna Unveiled: A City in Cinema February 27–April 20, 2014 The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters NEW YORK, January 29, 2014—In honor of the 50th anniversary of the Austrian Film Museum, Vienna, The Museum of Modern Art presents a major collaborative exhibition exploring Vienna as a city both real and mythic throughout the history of cinema. With additional contributions from the Filmarchiv Austria, the exhibition focuses on Austrian and German Jewish émigrés—including Max Ophuls, Erich von Stroheim, and Billy Wilder—as they look back on the city they left behind, as well as an international array of contemporary filmmakers and artists, such as Jem Cohen, VALIE EXPORT, Michael Haneke, Kurt Kren, Stanley Kubrick, Richard Linklater, Nicholas Roeg, and Ulrich Seidl, whose visions of Vienna reveal the powerful hold the city continues to exert over our collective unconscious. Vienna Unveiled: A City in Cinema is organized by Alexander Horwath, Director, Austrian Film Museum, Vienna, and Joshua Siegel, Associate Curator, Department of Film, MoMA, with special thanks to the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere. The exhibition is also held in conjunction with Vienna: City of Dreams, a citywide festival organized by Carnegie Hall. Spanning the late 19th to the early 21st centuries, from historical and romanticized images of the Austro-Hungarian empire to noir-tinged Cold War narratives, and from a breeding ground of anti- Semitism and European Fascism to a present-day center of artistic experimentation and socioeconomic stability, the exhibition features some 70 films. -

Writing with Music: Self-Reflexivity in the Screenplays of Walter Reisch
arts Article Writing with Music: Self-Reflexivity in the Screenplays of Walter Reisch Claus Tieber 1,* and Christina Wintersteller 2 1 Institut für Theater- Film- und Medienwissenschaft, University of Vienna, Althanstraße 14, 1090 Wien, Austria 2 Filmarchiv Austria, Obere Augartenstraße 1e, 1020 Wien, Austria; c.wintersteller@filmarchiv.at * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 10 October 2019; Accepted: 26 January 2020; Published: 28 January 2020 Abstract: Self-reflexivity is a significant characteristic of Austro-German cinema during the early sound film period, particular in films that revolve around musical topics. Many examples of self-reflexive cinematic instances are connected to music in one way or another. The various ways in which music is integrated in films can produce instances of intertextuality, inter- and transmediality, and self-referentiality. However, instead of relying solely on the analysis of the films in order to interrogate the conception of such scenes, this article examines several screenplays. They include musical instructions and motivations for diegetic musical performances. However, not only music itself, but also music as a subject matter can be found in these screenplays, as part of the dialogue or instructions for the mis-en-scène. The work of Austrian screenwriter and director Walter Reisch (1903–1983) will serve as a case study to discuss various forms of self-reflexivity in the context of genre studies, screenwriting studies and the early sound film. Different forms and categories of self-referential uses of music in Reisch’s work will be examined and contextualized within early sound cinema in Austria and Germany in the 1930s. -
La Battaglia Del Solstizio Sulle Sponde Del Piave
1917-1918 - DI GUERRA E DI PACE PERCORSI DI STORIA E SPUNTI DI RIFLESSIONE LA BATTAGLIA DEL SOLSTIZIO SULLE SPONDE DEL PIAVE DI ELIO FORMOSA Sul Piave il vecchio impero degli Asburgo combatte l’ultima battaglia, quella per la sopravvivenza. A spingere in avanti i soldati sono la fame, la disperazione e il desiderio di sconfiggere, una volta per tutte, l’odiato nemico e porre fine alla guerra. È l’offensiva della fame, la “hunger offensive”, ma il miracolo di Caporetto non si ripeterà. Ad attenderli, sulla riva destra del fiume, là dove cresce rigoglioso il grano, c’è un nuovo esercito, motivato e animato dal desiderio di cancellare l’onta della sconfitta e della rotta... Per gli italiani sarà la Battaglia del Solstizio. Sulla riva destra del Piave Il mese di giugno 1918 volge alla fine. Da sabato 15, il giorno dedicato a S. Vito, quello del famoso ballo, i soldati italiani, attestati sulla riva destra del Piave, hanno combattuto e arginato l’ultima e disperata offensiva dell’esercito austroungarico. Questa volta lo Stato Maggiore ha dato credito al calendario e ai disertori austroungarici, numerosissimi. Con l’esercito italiano combatte anche la Legione cecoslovacca, costituita da disertori dell’esercito austroungarico che si battono per una patria che ancora non hanno. Per loro, se fatti prigionieri, non c’è speranza alcuna. Il comando Regio e Imperiale (K.u.K.) ha posto sulle loro teste una taglia: Comando 70a divisione fanteria Honved. 13 giugno 1918. “La composizione della legione czeco-slovacca presso l'esercito italiano è quasi del tutto www.cislscuola.it 1 #generarevalori 1917-1918 - DI GUERRA E DI PACE PERCORSI DI STORIA E SPUNTI DI RIFLESSIONE sconosciuta; è quindi di sommo interesse assumere informazioni in proposito dagli interrogatori di prigionieri appartenenti a quella legione. -

A Means to an End Media Strategies and Films Commissioned by Svenska Europahjälpen in the Late 1940S

Eduard von Borsody). Courtesy of Sveriges Television AB. In Sweden, the humanitarian organizations Röda Korset (Swedish Red Cross, RK) and Rädda Barnen (Swedish Save the Children, RB) reveal an apparent awareness of the impact of film. Throughout the Second World War, RK appeared in several films, primarily in rela- tion to reports of refugees arriving in Sweden and the 1945 rescue transport with the White Buses. These films presented some of the consequences of the Second World War and the Holocaust, promot- ing neutral Sweden as an active helping hand. During the immediate post-war period, the short-lived organization Svenska Europahjälpen (Swedish European Aid, SE) suddenly commissioned a number of films. These post-war representations are best described as educational and promotional films, supplemented by explicit spoken or written 111 war remains exhortations to donate money, exemplified by the quotation with which I opened this chapter. The aim of this survey is to investigate the SE’s media strategy and its consequences. The survey is performed in three steps, with an overview of the theoretical approaches to testimonies of war and representations of trauma followed by a mapping of the SE and its media strategies.
