Film und kulturelle Erinnerung (German, Hardcover)

It is only through certain forms of social use that media become "Media of collective memory." The phenomenon of a "Remembrance film," too (e.g. Das Leben der Anderen, Hotel Ruanda, On connaA(R)t la chanson ) only comes about in a plurimedial context with its incorporation into a complex systemic media network that makes it into a remembrance film through various forms of reference. The volume analyses film using the methodology of studies in cultural memory to reveal the functioning of these constellations.
