GER 3892 - APPARATUS THEORY

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Apparatus Theory now, more than ever! Once the heart of Anglo-American Screen Theory, Apparatus Theory generated lively debates about the relation ofthe moving image and the mechanisms of production that brought it to the screen. Having run into certain impasses regarding gender and ideology, AT became quiescent in the English-speaking world. Outside, however, it continued to develop in new dynamic directions. This seminar will review the multifaceted history of AT and deploy it in analyses of a series of international moving images from mainstream to experimental. The course will be in English. Films will have English subtitles. Public screenings will take place separately outside seminar meetings. Students are asked to sign up for the lab at that time.
