Recenzii
Gerhardt's well-researched and well-written book is a good antidote to more myopic accounts of the RAF and fulfills its promise of presenting a solid basis for a more responsible (and hopefully also, in the best sense, irresponsible) examination of its legacy.
The book's detailed examination of German cultural politics from the mid-1950s through the 1970s is a significant contribution.
Gerhardt's Screening the Red Army Faction ... gives readers the opportunity to acquaint themselves with the radical period of the 1960s and 70s through the medium of film.
This eminently readable and beautifully researched book is essential reading for anyone interested in the German postwar period ... an indispensable resource and guide to the complex currents that have shaped postwar Germany.
Gerhardt's book represents an extremely detailed examination of the technique, language, character arcs, and atmosphere in the films discussed . These discussions are in turn couched in thick historical context, ... Gerhardt's negotiation of a path through and between film and political history offers a valuable perspective from which to reassess the terrorism of West Germany's 'long seventies' and its echoes.
This deeply researched, well-argued book illuminates a previous blind spot for many scholars of German cultural history as well as for film, media, and art history scholars interested in global political film and art ... Screening the Red Army Faction provides the connective tissue and necessary context to demonstrate the vital complexities of the long 1960s and 1970s and their continued global importance.
Christina Gerhardt's Screening the Red Army Faction is a rich, dense, and highly original contribution on German cinema in particular and German memory studies in general.
A well-researched book that connects the history of the RAF to its depiction in a range of visual and audiovisual materials. Gerhardt argues that our cultural memory of the RAF needs to properly contextualize these events within other contemporaneous and international political movements, including anti-imperialism, anticolonialism, labor movements, and feminist movements.
Walking a fine line between global history, social history, and cultural studies, the mission of Screening the Red Army Faction is to explore the relationship between historical and cultural memory beyond the fixed narratives and frameworks ... Gerhardt traces the connections between domestic concerns and international struggles while also situating the films within the layered and sometimes asynchronous time of film history.
Gerhardt appropriately accentuates the impact of migrants and international students on the 1960s student movement as well as the RAF's so-called armed struggle.
Non-German-speaking readers, who are her [Gerhardt's] target audience, will come away with new information.
This informative and well-documented study of the changing representations of the Red Army Faction is a welcome model for how to go about de-provincializing our understanding of the post-war German experience more generally.
Based on rigorous primary research and the broadest analysis of art and film depicting the Red Army Faction to date, Christina Gerhardt's book fills a major gap in the study of cultural memory in postwar Germany. Most impressively, the book avoids both reductive caricatures and romantic celebrations of the RAF, instead grounding their actions and legacy in a broad international and historical context.
Screening the Red Army Faction provides a solid engagement with 1970s print media and selected reflections on the RAF, mostly in New German Cinema. Gerhardt's monograph is a particularly apt introduction to readers ready to dig deeper into the 1960s and 1970s as marked by postcolonial wars, civil right movements, and violent responses to the failure of liberal democracies in the twentieth century.
Christina Gerhardt presents a detailed study of the cultural and political events of the 1960s and the 1970s in West Germany in relation to the labour and student movements, focusing on the RAF's activities and on films depicting the processes of cultural memory ... Screening the Red Army Faction is a rich, dense, and highly original contribution on German cinema in particular and German memory studies in general.
Gerhardt never romanticises the RAF but her study of its cultural memory will help ensure that what happened in Germany in the 1970s remains worth talking about.
