Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Historical Turns reassesses Weimar cinema in light of the "crisis of historicism" widely diagnosed by German philosophers in the early twentieth century. Through bold new analyses of five legendary works of German silent cinema?The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Destiny, Rhythm 21, The Holy Mountain, and Metropolis?Nicholas Baer argues that films of the Weimar Republic lent vivid expression to the crisis of historical thinking. With their experiments in cinematic form and style, these modernist films revealed the capacity of the medium to engage with fundamental questions about the philosophy of history. Reconstructing the debates over historicism that unfolded during the initial decades of moving-image culture, Historical Turns proposes a more reflexive mode of historiography and expands the field of film and media philosophy. The book excavates a rich archive of ideas that illuminate our own moment of rapid media transformation and political, economic, and environmental crises around the globe. …

Original decorated wrappers. Condizione: New. First Edition. With illustrations. Light shelfwear.; Unwatchable is a groundbreaking anthology that probes the tension between what we see and what we cannot bear to watch. Edited by Nicholas Baer, Maggie Hennefeld, Laura Horak, and Gunnar Iversen, this multidisciplinary volume brings together over 50 essays from leading scholars, artists, critics, and curators to explore why certain visual contentâ"whether from news media, horror films, or transgressive artâ"provokes aversion, refusal, or moral unease. Richly diverse in perspective, these contributions blend cultural theory, media studies, film criticism, and ethics to trace the contours of the "unwatchable" in our screen-saturated culture.
