Moving Forward, HAGENER MALTE BACK LOOKING MOVING FORWARD, Looking Back. The European Avant-garde and the Inven- tion of Film Culture, 1919-1939 is the first concise and FILM FILM critical overview of this crucial period in film history. Arguing that the avant-garde should be understood as CULTURE CULTURE a transnational network of European scope, this book IN TRANSITION IN TRANSITION ushers in a new approach to the study of artistic move- ments. Such ephemeral activities as alternative screening practice, teaching, publishing, film collecting, exhibitions and film festivals in fact stand at the beginning of what came to be known as film culture ever since. The book thus argues for the lasting and continuing impact that the avant-garde has had on the cinema in general, and not just on film form and film style.

So this list invariably contains names of people who never meant to participate in the creation of this book and who might even be surprised to find their names here. Of course, mistakes, omissions and faults are completely my own. Meanwhile, I am more than happy to point out the support of a number of friends, acquain- tances and colleagues. The basic framework, organisationally, intellectually and financially has been provided by the Universiteit van Amsterdam and the project » Cinema/Media Europe «, which gave me the opportunity to research and write this book, so my first bow has to go to those who made it possible to participate in this project. I have shared many hours and thoughts with my colleagues Marijke de Valck, Floris Paalman and Ward Rennen in classes and libraries, but also in our offices, first in the Vendelstraat and later in the Turfdraagsterpad. However, this project was all the more extraordinary because many other members from all corners of Europe made our meetings and activities so rewarding and stimulating. Thanks also to Melis Behlil, Yesim Burul, Tarja Laine, Gerwin van der Pol, and Elefther- ia Thanouli who contributed to our common effort of rethinking European cin- ema. However, the largest debt I owe is to Drehli Robnik. He showed up one day at the Ph.D. seminar and has become, along with Gabu Heindl, a good friend ever since. A number of colleagues and friends in Amsterdam have been helpful in var- ious ways, either listening to my half-baked ideas over dinner, sharing film ex- periences, taking the time to read earlier drafts of chapters, or just helping out when it was most necessary: Ivo Blom, Karel Dibbets, Charles Forceville, Julia Nordergraaf, Martina Roepke, Wim Staat, Wanda Strauven, Arnth van Tuinen, and Reimer van Tuinen. As part of the Amsterdam School of Cultural Analysis, I was lucky to be supported by Eloe Kingma and Hent de Vries. The first scho- lars to seriously involve themselves in the ideas raised in this book were on my Ph.D. committee and so thanks to Jeroen Boomgaard, Ian Christie, Vinzenz He- diger, Jan Simons, and Frank van Vree. A number of invitations allowed me to develop and test out ideas that have helped to shape this book. The first crucial presentation was given at New York University in February where Elena Gorfinkel and Charles Leary orga- nised what turned out to be the first in a series of get-togethers focused on the 8 Moving Forward, Looking Back idea of Cinephilia. At the conference I met Federico Windhausen, a fellow spirit of the avant-garde, while Bill Simon guided me to some references that I would not have been aware of otherwise. In New York, Steven Aldridge and Suzy Beemer provided not only food and shelter, but also stimulating talks and friendship. The series of conferences continued in in Amsterdam and in in London where Jenna Pei-Suin Ng and David Forgacs rose to the occa- sion. At all three conferences, a group of young scholars combined two virtues: a congenial and friendly atmosphere and excellent scholarship. Thanks to the organisers and everybody present on these occasions. Since , I have been a regular at the Gradisca Spring School in the Friaul region of Italy, an initiative that is focussed on the coming of sound to European cinema. Leonardo Quaresima and his team have established an extraordinary event in a small town between Venice, Istria and the Alps, which unites aca- demic rigour, an impeccable organisation with Italian style, good food and a stimulating atmosphere. In this extraordinary atmosphere, I have met many ex- ceptional scholars who helped me in various ways,

  • Du Cinéma and the Changing Question of Cinephilia and the Avant-Garde (1928-1930)
    Jennifer Wild, “‘Are You Afraid of the Cinema?’” AmeriQuests (2015) ‘Are you Afraid of the Cinema?’: Du Cinéma and the Changing Question of Cinephilia and the Avant-Garde (1928-1930) In December 1928, the prolific “editor of the Surrealists,” La Librairie José Corti, launched the deluxe, illustrated journal Du Cinéma: Revue de Critique et de Recherches Cinématographiques.1 Its first issue, indeed its very first page, opened with a questionnaire that asked, “Are you afraid of the cinema?” (Fig. 1, 2) The following paragraphs describing the questionnaire’s logic and critical aims were not penned by the journal’s founding editor in chief, Jean- George Auriol (son of George Auriol, the illustrator, typographer, and managing editor of the fin-de-siècle journal Le Chat Noir); rather, they were composed by André Delons, poet, critic, and member of the Parisian avant-garde group Le Grand Jeu. “This simple question is, by design, of a frankness and a weight made to unsettle you. I warn you that it has a double sense and that the only thing that occupies us is to know which you will choose,” he wrote.2 1. Cover, Du Cinéma, No. 1.

  • 36 Biel the Place of Polish Films.Pdf
    http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/8088-266-9.03 Urszula Biel The Place of Polish Films on German market between 1920s and 1930s, with special emphasis on Borderlands In the last few years there were few publications on Polish-German film collaboration during the interwar period, especially regarding years 1934–1939 when these mutual relations served political agenda.1 Special emphasis has been put on coproduction and distribution of Ger- man films in Poland. This paper considers reverse side of these relations, which is the presence of Polish films in Germany during the interwar period. The main source for this study will be the diplomatic and governmental cor- respondence of both countries during the mentioned period. In order to situate the place of Polish cinema in Weimar Republic and the Third Reich one must keep in mind huge disproportions between the two cinematographies, in both qualitative and quantitative terms. In 1918 Ger- many was second film industry in the world market, with the production of 340 films,2 whereas slowly developing Polish branch reached only seven mov- ies.3 During the next few years these numbers changed, but the proportions still reflected great differences in the potential of both cinematographies. Af- ter the World War I many countries boycotted German films. As a response the government of Weimar Republic blocked import of these states national production. German cinematography not only survived almost three years of isolation, but ended up more powerful than before. In order to fulfill the pro- grammes of cinema theatres the production of national cinema increased from 470 films in 1919 to 510 in 1920.4 In 1921 Berlin opened up to other countries movies, but finding way to Reich’s screens was still very difficult.

  • Cinema and Pedagogy in France, 1909-1930 Casiana Elena Ionita Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Re
    The Educated Spectator: Cinema and Pedagogy in France, 1909-1930 Casiana Elena Ionita Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Casiana Elena Ionita All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Educated Spectator: Cinema and Pedagogy in France, 1909-1930 Casiana Elena Ionita This dissertation draws on a wide range of sources (including motion pictures, film journals, and essays) in order to analyze the debate over the social and aesthetic role of cinema that took place in France from 1909 to 1930. During this period, as the new medium became the most popular form of entertainment, moralists of all political persuasions began to worry that cinematic representations of illicit acts could provoke social unrest. In response, four groups usually considered antagonistic — republicans, Catholics, Communists, and the first film avant- garde known as the Impressionists — set out to redefine cinema by focusing particularly on shaping film viewers. To do so, these movements adopted similar strategies: they organized lectures and film clubs, published a variety of periodicals, commissioned films for specific causes, and screened commercial motion pictures deemed compatible with their goals. Tracing the history of such projects, I argue that they insisted on educating spectators both through and about cinema. Indeed, each movement sought to teach spectators of all backgrounds how to understand the new medium of cinema while also supporting specific films with particular aesthetic and political goals. Despite their different interests, the Impressionists, republicans, Catholics, and Communists all aimed to create communities of viewers that would learn a certain way of decoding motion pictures.

    Alpine Notes. 403 Canada. 'MouNT CoNRAD,' ca. 10,300 ft. (The highest point of the Bobbie Burns 3 Range.) September 8, 1933. Dr. and Mrs. I. A. Richards with the late Conrad Kain. Left camp in Bugaboo Creek 03.20 and crossed the pass between Snow Patch and Bugaboo Spire, 08.20 (see 'A.A.J.' 1931, vol. i, No. 3, pp. 292-97). Bore N.W. across to the basin of the Warren Glacier (breakfast 09.00 to 09.45 by the big medial moraine near a remarkable glacier lake draining by a canal formed of crevasses for over a mile to theN.). Proceeded N.W. and descended into the head of a glacier basin draining S. into Howell Creek. Up again on to the northern neve slopes of a chain of minor peaks, from which a second considerable descent to theW. had to be made in order to mount to the foot of the N. ridge of 'Mount Conrad,' by which, over easy snow slopes, the summit was gained at 16.00. A sharp rocky peak entirely surrounded by large glacier systems. The name Mt. Jeannie, from Robert Burns's wife, was suggested in a note left on the summit; but, since this was Conrad Kain's final expedition, the name Mt. Conrad is being proposed to the Geographic Board of Canada. The route was retraced to the breakfast place and a descent to a timber-line bivouac made down Warren Glacier. It is pleasant to recall with what fine energy and high spirits Conrad Kain enjoyed this the last of his innumerable first ascent8 .

Moya, Chair This dissertation explores the particularly prominent role of Jews in coercive sex trafficking, then called white slavery in Buenos Aires when it was considered to be the world capital. The project aims to de-exoticize the subject by comparing Jewish pimps and prostitutes to other immigrants, grounding them in the neighborhoods they lived in, exploring the concrete concerns of their opponents, and connecting the broader discourses around these issues to transnational conversations about migration, sexuality, and the significance of race, ethnicity, and nationhood – the establishment of the boundaries of whiteness – in the furor around white slavery. I introduce new evidence about the Zwi Migdal Society (also called the Varsovia Society), a powerful mutual aid ii and burial association of Jewish pimps based in the Argentine capital.
