Description

Expressionism and Film by Rudolf Kurtz is an important work from the early phase of modern media history. Written with analytical brilliance and historical vision, it captures Expressionism at its intersection of world view, form, and medial transition. This groundbreaking study has never been published in English, making its relevance and historical contexts particularly valuable to scholars and film enthusiasts alike. Originally published in German in 1926, Kurtz's work is notable for its insight into the Weimar culture movement. A concise afterword by Swiss scholars Christian Kiening and Ulrich Johannes Beil provides additional context and analysis, shedding light on the significance of this influential study. This book offers a unique perspective on Expressionism and its relationship to film, making it an essential resource for those interested in media history and cultural studies.
