  • Towards a History of the Serial Killer in German Film History
    FOCUS ON GERMAN STUDIES 14 51 “Warte, warte noch ein Weilchen...” – Towards a History of the Serial Killer in German Film History JÜRGEN SCHACHERL Warte, warte noch ein Weilchen, dann kommt Haarmann auch zu dir, mit dem Hackehackebeilchen macht er Leberwurst aus dir. - German nursery rhyme t is not an unknown tendency for dark events to be contained and to find expression in nursery rhymes and children’s verses, such as I the well-known German children’s rhyme above. At first instance seemingly no more than a mean, whiny playground chant, it in fact alludes to a notorious serial killer who preyed on young male prostitutes and homeless boys. Placed in this context, the possible vulgar connotations arising from Leberwurst become all the more difficult to avoid recognizing. The gravity of these events often becomes drowned out by the sing-song iambics of these verses; their teasing melodic catchiness facilitates the overlooking of their lyrical textual content, effectively down-playing the severity of the actual events. Moreover, the containment in common fairy tale-like verses serves to mythologize the subject matter, rendering it gradually more fictitious until it becomes an ahistorical prototype upon a pedestal. Serial killer and horror films have to an arguably large extent undergone this fate – all too often simply compartmentalized in the gnarly pedestal category of “gore and guts” – in the course of the respective genres’ development and propagation, particularly in the American popular film industry: Hollywood. The gravity and severity of the serial murder phenomenon become drowned in an indifferent bloody splattering of gory effects.

  • The Kangaroo Court”
    Fritz Lang’s M “The Kangaroo Court” Russell J Lowke, December 2nd, 2002. Fritz Lang’s 1931 German masterpiece M is unusual as it conveys a message of radical distrust in the state and its process. The making of M coincided with the rapid disintegration of the political and social structures of the Weimar Republic; German defeat in the First World War had resulted in a general erosion of public trust and governmental authority. Recession had reached Germany in the form of massive unemployment, rising criminality and political unrest.1 Berlin had become the site of wild strikes and mass demonstrations. Lynch mobs engaged in open manhunts.2 Violent crime was seen as a symptom of a system that was rotten at the core.3 Lang’s film culminates in a “kangaroo court,” the focus of this essay. The court is coordinated by criminals and held in the basement of a defunct cognac distillery. Lang places the justice system and its process under scrutiny, calling into question who has the right to judge, give retribution, and to punish. The film echoes historical events in Germany at the beginning of the 1930s. The country had just witnessed an epidemic of serial killers, coupled with an unprecedented public interest in serial crime. Lang’s own penchant for sensationalist and serial cinema is served by the subject matter of M — the focus of which is Beckert, a child serial killer.4 Like Beckert, the historical figure of Fritz Haarmann was a German serial killer. Haarmann’s widely publicized trial introduced the question of the murderer’s mental capacity.

  • The Background to 1936 the TIME Normal People Under the Third
    The background to 1936 THE TIME Normal people under the Third Reich. Their hopes, and expectations of the regime’s survival. Despite their concern over the blatant extreme and unsweetened policies of the two main political rivals (National Socialists and Communists) as the Nazis wrestled for power in 1933, most of the ordinary population of Germany were no great fans of, and almost pretty much glad to see the back of, the Weimar Republic as it crumbled. They no longer had any faith in its purpose and had become irretrievably disillusioned with most of its parliaments, leaders and politicians. What they wanted was order, stability and a start to any possible economic recovery. The majority believed (along with most statesmen, politicians, the military and senior ministers across Western Europe) that the Nazi regime would be a relatively short one. They foresaw a credible scenario where domestic or foreign setbacks would conspire against Hitler and some obstruction or other would curtail his time in office. Whereas, in a twist of savage irony, events largely conspired for him and complacent presumptions of his early dethroning were damagingly misjudged. The numbness of the people: war, defeat, depression, anarchy. The German people had suffered the effects of the Great War, which cost two million German lives and $37½ billion for the nation to wage - with reparations owed of a further 33 billion. The shame of defeat and the perceived humiliation of the Treaty of Versailles. The Great Depression, which left six million German workers unemployed and descended the country into political chaos and economic turmoil.

    THE TENDERNESS OF WOLVES PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Stef Penney | 466 pages | 04 Aug 2011 | Quercus Publishing Plc | 9780857388797 | English | London, United Kingdom The Tenderness of Wolves PDF Book Costa Book Awards. Story of a gay serial killer who murders young boys so he can serve them as dinner to his circle of fellow cannibals. I know wolves have learned to stay out of range of a Winchester rifle, so they cannot be entirely stupid, but they are not so clever that they have learned to distrust a free gift of food, and where is the merit in following a doomed creature to its end? We all agreed that we would recommend both of these books, a rare occurence. Although a murder mystery with many plot twists, the novel most successfully reveals complex human desires, motivations, and relationships. About Discuss. His interest in Jammet concerns not so much the man himself but what he possessed. Join Today! Ross's knock on the door of the largest house in Caulfield that launches the investigation. Although there are any number of unfortunate females in the world plenty in my experience alone , around here "those poor girls" always refers to only two -- the Seton sisters, who vanished all those years ago. With the help of an Indian tracker, who himself is a murder suspect, she heads off into the wilderness to find him - and possibly also to trace the source of the mysterious second set of tracks which her son has probably been following. Ross's knock on the door of the largest house in Caulfield that launches the investigation.
