Art catalogue publication
![IMG_8743[1]](https://oberheidenbrent.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/img_87431.jpg)
The catalogue in collaboration with our art project in Rostock has been published. My husband Wyman Brent wrote an introductory text, I wrote and co-wrote three articles on the history of certain symbols in art history as well as on current art projects in Rostock, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (East Germany). The art projects were created in connection with local associations („Vereine“), an integral part of German culture.
Book publication: Der Spielfilm des Nationalsozialismus
As of now, you can order my new book publication on Fictional Films in Nationalsocialist Germany online and/or at book stores within Germany. The book focuses on how Heimat (home) and Fremde (the foreign) are being portrayed and discussed in different genres of fictional German films between 1933 and 1945. Language of the book is German.
Ab sofort kann mein Buch „Der Spielfilm des Nationalsozialismus: Abgrenzung von der Fremde und Kampf für die Heimat“ online (z.B. auf amazon.de) bestellt werden. Aber auch auf einem traditionellen Gang in ein Buchgeschäft wird man fündig.
Hier ein kurzer Auschnitt aus der Kurzbeschreibung:
Was ist Heimat? Neben einer ortsgebundenen Dimension schließt eine Definition von Heimat doch auch soziokulturelle und zeitliche Dimensionen mit ein. Diese Studie untersucht die ‚Heimat‘- und ‚Fremde‘-Modelle in den Spielfilmen des Nationalsozialismus. Zentrale Rolle spielt dabei das Verhältnis von Medium und Ideologie. Kann es überhaupt unpolitische deutsche Spielfilme zwischen 1933 und 1945 geben?
