German National Cinema is the first comprehensive history of
German film from its origins to the present. In this new edition,
Sabine Hake discusses film-making in economic, political, social,
and cultural terms, and considers the contribution of Germany's
most popular films to changing definitions of genre, authorship,
and film form.
The book traces the central role of cinema in the nation 's
turbulent history from the Wilhelmine Empire to the Berlin
Republic, with special attention paid to the competing demands of
film as art, entertainment, and propaganda. Hake also explores the
centrality of genre films and the star system to the development of
a filmic imaginary.
This fully revised and updated new edition will be required
reading for everyone interested in German film and the history of
modern Germany.
