Students deal with new themes in selected key areas. They understand and evaluate them as well as argument with regards to scientific dynamics and trends of the respective key areas. They understand the strengths and weaknesses of the different methodological approaches. They gain competences in independent formulating of questions and argumentations.
In this seminar, we approach transatlantic histories of mountain cinema from three conceptually distinct research perspectives: (1) a transdisciplinary one that combines methods of historiography, American cultural studies as well as film and media studies; (2) a spatial or transatlantic one, which situate mountain films in European and American film history and explores their intricate points of relation; and (3) a temporal one that emerges from comparing mountain films from the first decades of the 20th and 21st centuries respectively. This allows us to supplement our historical perspective with a film revisionist one. Examining films across a period of about one hundred years, will bring out in particular historical changes in the cultural perception of mountains.
The seminar will be accompanied by screenings of select mountain films at the Leokino and a symposium on "Transatlantic Mountain Cinema" (November 3 and 4, 2024), where students will have the opportunity to discuss questions developed in the seminar with international experts.
Presentations, discussions, reading and writing assignments.
