  • CINEMA 12 76 the AFRICAN TWIN TOWERS UNVEILING the CREATIVE PROCESS in CHRISTOPH SCHLINGENSIEF's LATE FILM WORK Jeremy Hamers
    CINEMA 12 76 THE AFRICAN TWIN TOWERS UNVEILING THE CREATIVE PROCESS IN CHRISTOPH SCHLINGENSIEF’S LATE FILM WORK Jeremy Hamers1 (University of Liège) In 1999, during one of Christoph Schlingensief’s appearances in the German talk show “Grüner Salon” (N-TV), journalist Erich Böhme blamed the director, political performer and dramatic author for having invited Horst Mahler, an (in)famous member of the far right party NPD2, to give a public speech at the Berlin Volksbühne. The interview soon became very tense. But during this short conflictual exchange, Schlingensief made a remarkable statement about broadcasted pictures, the material body and the political. - Böhme: “Don’t you run the risk of promoting the right-wing scene? After all, they could say, ‘Aha! He even includes us in his performance. He gives Mahler, who’s closely linked to the NPD, excellent publicity!” - Schlingensief [interrupting Böhme]: “Mr Böhme, I didn’t want to say this, but when you, in your show… that was interesting… I had Mr Mahler and Mr Oberlercher3 down here at the Volksbühne, on the stage – and one could jump on the stage, and some people actually did. And Oberlercher shouted at some point, ‘Leibstandarte, Leibstandarte!’4 and whatever else. This man is completely nuts. This man is running on empty. Mr Mahler is also running on empty. They are all people who are running on empty. And I’m absolutely not.” - B.: “But why do you put them on the stage?” - S.: “But sitting in your show, Mr Böhme, was Mr Haider.5 And you just played with your glasses while asking in a jokey way, ‘Are you a populist? Are you a neonazi?’ Right? And I was sitting in front of my television screen, I was sitting there – and I wished I could put my hand inside the television! I thought, ‘That just can’t be true.

  • Reviewed Scott Dissertation Final
    MURDEROUS MOTHERS: FEMINIST VIOLENCE IN GERMAN LITERATURE AND FILM (1970-2000) Claire E. Scott A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Carolina-Duke Graduate Program in German Studies. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Kata Gellen Stefani Engelstein Richard Langston Priscilla Layne Inga Pollmann ©2017 Claire E. Scott ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Claire E. Scott: Murderous Mothers: Feminist Violence in German Literature and Film (1970-2000) (Under the direction of Kata Gellen) This dissertation analyzes literary and filmic representations of violent mothers from late 20th-century Germany. It employs feminist theories of language and theories of the voice and the body in film to enhance close readings of texts in which female protagonists defy gendered expectations by perpetrating acts of aggression. Through an interplay between thematic violence and the transgression of aesthetic conventions, these works generate an imaginary of feminist violence that advances feminist politics. Highlighting this dynamic reveals female bodies and voices as important sites for working through both past and contemporary violence in the German context. In addition, this work has broader theoretical significance as an intermediary between feminist theories of language and materialist feminist theories. Instead of strategies for emancipation, these texts generate female subjectivities that are engaged, not in assertions of individuality, but in collective and collaborative storytelling practices. The first chapter considers Dea Loher’s Manhattan Medea (1999) and Christa Wolf’s Medea. Stimmen (1996). Both of these texts use the story of Medea to come to terms with a historical context in which the voices of outsiders are excluded.
