In Screening Transcendence, film historian Robert Dassanowsky explores how Austrian filmmakers during the Austrofascist period (1933-1938) developed two overlapping industries: "Aryanized" films for distribution in Germany, its largest market, and "Emigrantenfilm," which employed émigré and Jewish talent that appealed to international audiences. Through detailed archival research in both Vienna and the United States, Dassanowsky reveals what was culturally, socially, and politically at stake in these two simultaneous and overlapping film industries. Influenced by French auteurism, admired by Italian cinephiles, and ardently remade by Hollywood, these period Austrian films demonstrate a distinctive regional style mixed with transnational influences. Combining brilliant close readings of individual films with thoroughly informed historical and cultural observations, Dassanowsky presents the story of a nation and an industry mired in politics, power, and intrigue on the brink of Nazi occupation. -- |cProvided by publisher. 505 00 |gpt. 1 |tStructures -- |g1. |tSystem of Faith and Aesthetics of Loss: Austrian Cultural Politics in the First Republic and the Christian Corporate State -- |g2. |tScopic Regimes: Notes on Newsreel and Culture Film Production, the Legacy of Baroque and Fin de Siecle Vienna, and Political Catholicism in Public Spectacle -- |g3. |tAgainst Nazism and with Catholicism?
