Scoring the Holocaust SCORING THE HOLOCAUST: A COMPARATIVE, THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF THE FUNCTION OF FILM MUSIC IN GERMAN HOLOCAUST CINEMA Matthew William Lawson BMus (Hons), MA (York), PGCTHE, FHEA A thesis submitted to the Department of Media, Edge Hill University, in partial fulfilment of the Edge Hill University requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2016 P a g e | 2 Dedicated to Pauline (1924-2005) and Kenneth Eyre (1922-2011) P a g e | 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Edge Hill University and my supervisory team for providing excellent opportunities to me throughout my years with them. The Graduate Teaching Assistantship enabled me to undertake a funded PhD; something which I will be eternally grateful for. They have also provided funding to enable me to travel to conferences both domestically and internationally which offered invaluable experience to me as an early career researcher. Furthermore, I have had the opportunity to earn valuable teaching experience and receive a PGCTHE qualification, leading to Fellow status with the Higher Education Academy. I also thank my supervisors who have been incredibly patient throughout the process, and have offered invaluable, detailed advice. I would like to thank the various external funding bodies who have supported me throughout the PhD programme. These include the European Holocaust Research Infrastructure who enabled me to spend six weeks in Munich in order to access vital German-language resources, the Deutsche Akademischer Austauschdienst who supported a similar one- month visit to Germany in November 2014, and the George Heim Memorial Trust who offered a small grant to support a conference visit to Krakow, Poland. Finally, and most importantly, I would like to thank my friends and family, both near and far, who have supported me during the difficult periods of my research. The PhD process can be overwhelmingly lonely, isolating, and frustrating, and the importance of having the love and support of those closest to me cannot be understated. To my wife Nichola, words cannot express how grateful I am for sacrificing so much during the first part of our marriage to enable me to complete a PhD on the other side of the country. I am grateful that I have a lifetime to repay you for your patience, understanding and undying support. Finally, to our son Harry, you brought true happiness during difficult times, and your smiles made the long days of writing and editing much more bearable. P a g e | 4 ABSTRACT Holocaust representation in film has received much academic attention, with a focus on how cinematography and the narrative may assist our memorialisation process. One aspect of film which has received little academic attention, however, is the issue surrounding the musical accompaniments of such films. The musical score often goes unnoticed, but may also contain emotional qualities. It can make an audience laugh, cry or alter their perception of the narrative. The three countries of East, West and reunified Germany have each attempted to engage with the Holocaust, including through the medium of film. They have done so in contrasting ways and to varying degrees of effectiveness. The opposing political, social and cultural environments of East and West Germany outweighed their geographical proximity. Likewise, reunified Germany developed a third, divergent approach to Holocaust engagement. This thesis combines three key existing fields of academia: film music theory, Holocaust representation in film, and German politics, history and culture. Through comparative textual analyses of six film case studies, two each from East, West and reunified Germany, this thesis examines whether there are examples of similarities or inherent, reoccurring musical characteristics which define the Holocaust on screen. Furthermore, the six analyses will be supported by contextual examinations of the respective countries, directors and composers in order to ascertain whether there were political, cultural and/or social considerations which impacted upon the film scores. The original contribution to knowledge to which this thesis lays claim is that it forms the first significant scholarly engagement with not only the film music of German Holocaust cinema specifically, but, on a broader scale, the ongoing theoretical discourse surrounding film music and representation. This new contribution to Holocaust knowledge also extends to a continued development of the understanding of and engagement with the event and its audio-visual representations.

Starring Hitler! Adolf Hitler as the Main Character in Twentieth-First Century French Fiction Abstract Adolf Hitler has remained a prominent figure in popular culture, often portrayed as either the personification of evil or as an object of comedic ridicule. Although Hitler has never belonged solely to history books, testimonials, or documentaries, he has recently received a great deal of attention in French literary fiction. This article reviews three recent French novels by established authors: La part de l’autre (The Alternate Hypothesis) by Emmanuel Schmitt, Lui (Him) by Patrick Besson and La jeunesse mélancolique et très désabusée d’Adolf Hitler (Adolf Hitler’s Depressed and Very Disillusioned Youth) by Michel Folco; all of which belong to the Twenty-First Century French literary trend of focusing on Second World War perpetrators instead of their victims.

  • A Foreign Affair (1948)
    Chapter 3 IN THE RUINS OF BERLIN: A FOREIGN AFFAIR (1948) “We wondered where we should go now that the war was over. None of us—I mean the émigrés—really knew where we stood. Should we go home? Where was home?” —Billy Wilder1 Sightseeing in Berlin Early into A Foreign Affair, the delegates of the US Congress in Berlin on a fact-fi nding mission are treated to a tour of the city by Colonel Plummer (Millard Mitchell). In an open sedan, the Colonel takes them by landmarks such as the Brandenburg Gate, the Reichstag, Pariser Platz, Unter den Lin- den, and the Tiergarten. While documentary footage of heavily damaged buildings rolls by in rear-projection, the Colonel explains to the visitors— and the viewers—what they are seeing, combining brief factual accounts with his own ironic commentary about the ruins. Thus, a pile of rubble is identifi ed as the Adlon Hotel, “just after the 8th Air Force checked in for the weekend, “ while the Reich’s Chancellery is labeled Hitler’s “duplex.” “As it turned out,” Plummer explains, “one part got to be a great big pad- ded cell, and the other a mortuary. Underneath it is a concrete basement. That’s where he married Eva Braun and that’s where they killed them- selves. A lot of people say it was the perfect honeymoon. And there’s the balcony where he promised that his Reich would last a thousand years— that’s the one that broke the bookies’ hearts.” On a narrative level, the sequence is marked by factual snippets infused with the snide remarks of victorious Army personnel, making the fi lm waver between an educational program, an overwrought history lesson, and a comedy of very dark humor.

  • Political, Moral and Legal Aspects of the Resettlement of German Population After World War II
    POLISH REVIEW OF INTERNATIONAL AND EUROPEAN LAW 2018, Vol. 7, Issue 2 WOLLT IHR DEN TOTALEN KRIEG? Political, Moral and LEGal Aspects of the Resettlement of German Population After World War II Jerzy Kranz* Abstract: Germany had started the Second World War in an intentional and conscious manner, obviously being aware that every action can have unpredictable and unwanted consequences. The Potsdam decisions were taken by the Great Powers after assuming supreme authority in Germany. They constituted a manifestation of the Allies’ rights and responsibilities. The territorial changes of Germany and the transfer of population were part of the general regulation of the effects of the Second World War. These decisions were not a simple matter of revenge. They must be perceived in a wider political perspective of European policy. The resettlement by Germany of ethnic Germans to the Reich or to the territories it occupied constituted an instrument of National Socialist policy. This German policy turned out in 1945 to be a tragic irony of fate. The resettlement decided in Potsdam must be perceived in the context of German legal responsibility for the war’s outbreak. The individual perception of the resettlement and individual guilt are different from * Professor, Department of International Law and European Union, Kozminski University 9 Jerzy Kranz the international responsibility of the state and from the political-historical responsibility of the nation. In our discussion we made the distinction between the individual and the collective aspect as well as between the legal and historical/ political aspect. We deal with the guilt of individuals (criminal, political, moral), the international legal responsibility of states, and the political and historical responsibility of nations (societies).
