[SC: 35.99], [PU: Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2004], Kracauer, Siegfried, 1889-1966. From Caligari to Hitler: a psychological history of the German film. Edited and introduced by Leonardo Quaresima. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2004, Revised and expanded edition, later printing, LIII, 348pp., PAPERBACK, used copy, good but cover worn, top corner foredge soiled, student's note in ink on front endpaper about page to read each week. Substantial 34-page new introduction by Quaresima. - A landmark, now classic, study of the rich cinematic history of the Weimar Republic, From Calgari to Hitler was first published by Princeton University Press in 1947. Siegfried Kracauer - a prominent German film critic and member of Walter Benjamin's and Theodor Adorno's intellectual circle - broke new ground in exploring the connections between film aesthetics, the prevailing psychological state of Germans in the Weimar era, and the evolving social and political reality of the time, Kracauer's pioneering book, which examined both the classics of early German cinema such as The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, M, Metropolis, and The Blue Angel, and the more run-of-the-mill popular movie, has never gone out of print. Now, over half a century after its first appearance, this beautifully designed and entirely new edition reintroduces Kracauer for the twenty-first century. Film scholar Leonardo Quaresima places Kracauer in context in a respectful but critical introduction, and updates the book further with a new bibliography, index, and list of inaccuracies that crept into the first edition. This volume is a must-have for the film historian, film theorist, or amateur of German cinema. ISBN 9780691115184<
