Illustrated
ISBN-13: 978-1-57113-916-0, ISBN: 1-57113-916-8

"Classical music in the German Democratic Republic is commonly viewed as having functioned as an ideological support or cultural legitimization for the state, in the form of the so-called "bourgeois humanist inheritance." The large numbers of professional orchestras in the GDR were touted as a proof of the country's culture. Classical music could be seen as the polar opposite of Americanizing pop culture and also of musical modernism, wh ..."

"The cinema of the German Democratic Republic, that is, the cinema of its state-run studio DEFA, portrayed gender and sexuality in complex and contradictory ways. In doing so, it reflected the contradictions in GDR society in respect to such questions. This is the first scholarly collection in English or German to fully address the treatment of gender and sexuality in the productions of DEFA across genres (from shorts and feature films t ..."






From Weimar to Christiania
German and Scandinavian Studies in Context
by Kyle Frackman, Florence Feiereisen
Digital, 196 Pages, Published 2014
ISBN-13: 978-1-4438-0637-4, ISBN: 1-4438-0637-4

"This is perhaps due to his early falling out with Kanak Attak, when in 1999 he decided to write a script for a film of the same name. He was able to maintain the title, but was required to change the spelling of Attak through the addition of the standard “c.” Understandably, this led to much confusion in the media, and one can certainly wonder if some of the credit he received for the formation of Kanak Attak is not, in fact, a byp ..."

"From gay and lesbian political activism during the 1960s and 70s through the 1980s queer movement inspired by the AIDS crisis to the recent push towards normalization for same-sex couples via registered partnerships and adoption rights, LGBT issues have been moving steadily into the political and cultural mainstream of the German-speaking lands. A host of German LGBT culture has emerged in recent years, including films and literary work ..."






Tatort Germany(Reprint)
(Studies in German Literature Linguistics & Culture)

Paperback, 266 Pages, Published 2018 by Camden House
ISBN-13: 978-1-64014-026-4, ISBN: 1-64014-026-3

"Although George Bernard Shaw quipped that "the Germans lack talent for two things: revolution and crime novels," there is a long tradition of German crime fiction; it simply hasn't aligned itself with international trends. During the 1920s, German-language writers dispensed with the detective and focused instead on criminals, a trend that did not take hold in other countries until after 1945, by which time Germany had gone on to produce ..."

"In this study, the author examines works of German-language literature and film from the nineteenth and twentieth century in order to chart a certain kind of otherness. Common to all of the examined cultural products are aspects of gender, sexuality, a notion of home or belonging, and pressures of abjection. Other elements of identity include race and disease. The characters in the analyzed works encounter both mutual dependence and abh ..."
