Every kind of cinema and every film theory first imagines an ideal spectator, and then maps certain dynamic interactions between the screen and the spectators mind, ...

Kriegsfilme nehmen uns mit: in Zeit und Raum, indem sie uns an die Schauplätze historischer Konflikte und militärischer Gefechte versetzen, vor allem aber emotional, indem sie uns zu Zeugen technifizierter Gewalt, körperlicher Verstümmelung und kollektiven Sterbens machen. Thomas Elsaesser und Michael Wedel zeichnen den grundlegenden ästhetischen Wandel des Hollywood-Kriegsfilms in der jüngeren Vergangenheit nach. Ausgangspunkt ihres Buches is...

The woman's picture, the male trauma narrative, and mind-game films-three ways that American cinema tests the limits: of what victims can suffer, what the body can bear, and what the mind can understand. Usually considered both marginal and excessive, these genres, modes, or tendencies in contemporary Hollywood have more in common than might at first appear. They tell us much about the way America engages in dialogue with its own divided natur...

In German Cinema - Terror and Trauma Since 1945, Thomas Elsaesser reevaluates the meaning of the Holocaust for postwar German films and culture, while offering a reconsideration of trauma theory today. Elsaesser argues that Germany's attempts at "mastering the past" can be seen as both a failure and an achievement, making it appropriate to speak of an ongoing 'guilt management' that includes not only Germany, but Europe as a whole. In a series...

Hydrogen bonds represent type of molecular interaction that determines the structure and function of a large variety of molecular systems. The elementary dynamics of hydrogen bonds and related proton transfer reactions, both occurring in the ultra fast time domain between 10-14 and 10-11s, form a research topic of high current interest. In this book addressing scientists and graduate students in physics, chemistry and biology, the ultra fast ...

Die Bundesrepublikanische Geschichte ist geprägt von der Aufarbeitung der traumatischen Kriegserlebnisse und -verbrechen. Diese Aufarbeitung ist in unterschiedlicher Weise geleistet worden und sie bildet das Thema dieses Buches. Eine Antwort ist bis zu ihrer Selbstauflösung am 20. 4. 1998 die RAF, die Thomas Elsaesser in einem Kapitel vor der Folie des Antigone-Mythos interpretiert. Dabei geht es ihm nicht darum, den Mythos RAF ein weiteres Ma...

Rainer Werner Fassbinder gilt als der bedeutendste Regisseur des deutschen Kinos nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Während die bisherige Literatur zu Fassbinder sich vor allem dem "maßlosen" Leben des ungemein produktiven Filmemachers verschrieben hat, steht in diesem Buch sein Werk im Zentrum: Thomas Elsaesser, einer der international renommiertesten Filmhistoriker, analysiert Fassbinders Filme als ebenso klarsichtige wie kritische Chronik der Bund...

Onder invloed van de rivaliteit met Hollywood en de val van de muur in 1989 vond er in de jaren '90 in veel West-Europese landen een levendig debat plaats over de toekomst van de nationale filmtradities. Van het bestaan van zich onderscheidende 'nationale' stijlen, zoals bijvoorbeeld neo-realisme, zou niet langer kunnen worden uitgegaan. Film zou e
