The Cosmopolitan Screen : German Cinema and the Global Imaginary, 1945 to the Present, Paperback / softback Book

The Cosmopolitan Screen : German Cinema and the Global Imaginary, 1945 to the Present Paperback / softback

Edited by Stephan K. Schindler, Lutz Koepnick

Part of the Social History, Popular Culture and Politics in Germany series

Paperback / softback

Description

The Cosmopolitan Screen investigates the extent to which German filmmakers throughout the last sixty years have engaged with the ever more fluid trade of images, meanings, and identities in a globalizing world.

The volume traces German cinema's negotiation of the global as a multilayered story in which hopes and fears about the prospect of a more cosmopolitan culture often go hand in hand.

Featuring original work from some of the foremost scholars in German film studies from either side of the Atlantic, ""The Cosmopolitan Screen"" makes a persuasive case for rethinking the place of the ""national"" within an increasingly cosmopolitan and global economy of images and sounds.

The book will attract those interested in film studies, cultural studies, media studies, visual culture, and German and European history.
