Perspectives on German Cinema,edited by Terri Ginsberg and Kirsten Moana Thompson Published by G. K. Hall/Simon & Schuster/Macmillan 1996 As German reunification has increased attention to German history and culture, scholarly output devoted to all phases of the history of German film has escalated rapidly. In this, the first of G. K. Hall's Perspectives on Film volumes to treat national cinema, the authors have collected classic and newly commissioned essays and articles that address a wide range of historical issues, including the politics of gender and sexuality; the Holocaust; feminism; and Nazi propaganda films. These discussions of dramas and documentaries, filmmakers, and artistic ideologies cover all aspects of German cinema, from its silent beginnings to the present day.
