    Bergt 1 Siena Sofia Bergt Professor Insdorf Analysis of Film Language 26 February 2018 Colored Perspectives: Shading World War II Onscreen Films that deal with World War II—whether their narratives are concerned primarily with the war itself, the aura from which it emerged, or the ethos of its aftermath—have a particularly charged relationship to the presence or abjuration of color. As representations of a period that produced its own black-and-white archival footage, these worKs recKon with color not simply as an aesthetic choice, but also as a tool through which to define their own relationship to perspectival subjectivity and claims of historical authenticity. By examining the role of color in three vastly different World War II films— Andrzej Wajda’s black-and-white 1958 rendition of the war’s last 24 hours in “Ashes and Diamonds,” the Harlequin prewar chaos of Bob Fosse’s 1972 “Cabaret,” and the delicate balance of color and blacK-and-white characterizing the postwar divided Germany of Wim Wenders’ 1987 “Wings of Desire”—we may access a richer understanding, not simply of the films’ stylistic approaches, but also (and perhaps more significantly) of their relationship to both their origins and audience. Color, that is, acts in these three films as a chromatic guide by which to untangle each respective text’s taKe on both subjectivity and objectivity. Bergt 2 The best “entry point” into these stylistically and temporally distinct films’ chromatic motifs is through three strikingly analogous crowd scenes—each of which uses communal participation in a diegetically well-known song to highlight a moment of dramatic urgency or volatility.

Indeed, visual images of damaged and mutilated bodies proliferated in the aftermath of war, as many artists struggled to come to terms with the violence and brutality that they and their comrades had endured on the battlefields.

  • Aesthetics, the Body, and Erotic Literature in the Age of Lessing
    HEAVING AND SWELLING: AESTHETICS, THE BODY, AND EROTIC LITERATURE IN THE AGE OF LESSING Derrick Ray Miller A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures. Chapel Hill 2007 approved by: Eric Downing Jonathan Hess (advisor) Clayton Koelb Alice Kuzniar Richard Langston © 2007 Derrick Ray Miller ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT DERRICK RAY MILLER: Heaving and Swelling: Aesthetics, the Body, and Erotic Literature in the Age of Lessing (Under the direction of Jonathan Hess) In this dissertation, I explore how signs affect the body in German neoclassicism. This period constructs a particular body (the voluptuary’s body) that derives primarily sensual—as opposed to cognitive—pleasure from the signs of art. Erotic literature with its sensual appeal, then, becomes a special case of art, one that manifests this relationship between signs and the body the most clearly. By focusing on erotic literature as a paradigmatic rather than a marginal case of literature, I am able to reconsider our current understanding of German neoclassicism. Erotic literature exceeds the aesthetic and semiotic principles that scholars have come to expect to circumscribe the literature of this period. Erotic literature moves beyond such categories as vividness, veracity, and verisimilitude to achieve an aesthetic pleasure of virtuality. Its arousing signs produce voluptuous sensations and transformations in the reader’s body in addition to transmitting knowledge and manipulating affect. And as they strike—or stroke—the body, these signs appear less transparent than sticky.

  • 107 V Ariations on the Unexpected
    107 Variations on the Unexpected SURPRISE 107 Variations on the Unexpected Dedication and Prelude To Raine Daston In his essay “Of Travel,” Francis Bacon recommends that diaries be used to register the things “to be seen and observed.” Upon returning home, the traveler should not entirely leave the visited countries, but maintain a correspondence with those she met, and let her experi- ence appear in discourse rather than in “apparel or gesture.” Your itineraries through a vast expanse of the globe of knowledge seem to illustrate Bacon’s recommendations, and have inspired many to em- bark on the exploration of other regions—some adjacent, some dis- tant from the ones you began to clear. Yet not all have journeyed as well equipped as you with notebooks, nor assembled them into a trove apt to become, as Bacon put it, “a good key” to inquiry. As you begin new travels, you may add the present collection to yours, and adopt the individual booklets as amicable companions on the plane or the U-Bahn. Upon wishing you, on behalf of all its contributors, Gute Reise! and Bon voyage!, let us tell you something about its gen- esis and intention. Science depends on the unexpected. Yet surprise and its role in the process of scientific knowledge-making has hitherto received lit- tle attention, let alone systematic investigation. If such a study ex- isted, it would no doubt have been produced in your Department at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science. The topic is a seamless match with your interest in examining ideals and practices of scientific and cultural rationality—ideals and practices often so fundamental that they appear to transcend history or are overlooked altogether.

Professor of Art Santhi Kavuri-Bauer, PhD. Professor of Art WILL THE REAL OTTO DIX PLEASE STAND UP? DIX, NIETZSCHE, AND LACAN. Bryan Nathan Wurster San Francisco, California 2015 This thesis is an analysis of paintings created by the German modernist Otto Dix (1891- 1969) through the dual methodology of Nietzschean philosophy and Lacanian psychoanalysis. This thesis focuses on self-portraits made by Dix, but analyzes them as part of a larger output by the artist. The content of the self-portraits is studied and interpreted according to values and symbolism espoused in Nietzsche’s writings, with a particular focus on Thus Spoke Zarathustra. The self-portraits are also studied as representations that reflect Dix’s self-image as well as a desired public image that he projected through these works. By looking at Dix’s self-portraits through this two frameworks, this thesis argues that Dix’s self-portraits function not as social critique, but as a powerful form of self-identification that functions to present an idealized Dix.
