Author-signed first printing. Softcover volume, measuring approximately 6" x 9", is new. 197 pages."The title of this collection echoes Siegfried Kracauer's statement that the lavish movie palaces of 1920s Germany served to stimulate peripheral vision and thus prevent the audience from being absorbed by the spectacle itself. In consideration of questions concerning spatial transformations in and around Weimar cinema, the eight essays in this volume, though some more explicitly than others, have Kracauer as their interlocutor. The first major critic of classic German cinema, Kracauer is patron of the optics that seeks insight on the periphery, inviting the analysis of those other spaces that are implicated, if not present, in the films themselves.The films treated in this volume include such Expressionist mainstays as Lang's Metropolis and Murnau's "Nosferatu" as well as generally less familiar works, e.g., Ruttman's "Berlin, Symphony of a City," Jessner's "Backstairs," Berger's "Day and Night," and… Read More
