Bücher der Reihe Cinepoetics

The Cinepoetics book series aims at a theoretical and analytical reconceptualization of the discursivity of audiovisual images. The focus is not on the circulation of media representations but on the modes of this circulation: How do audiovisual images as figurations of media experience relate to other audiovisual images? What does it mean to describe different modes of audiovisual experience and recursivity as forms of cinematic thinking? From this perspective, the series' volumes provide analyses of the aesthetic dimension, historical function and cultural significance of their subjects, making the poetic logic of audiovisual images accessible to an interdisciplinary audience. Please note also the English-language Cinepoetics books series (https://www.degruyter.com/serial/CINE%20E-B/html) and the series Cinepoetics Essay (https://www.degruyter.com/serial/CINE%20ES-B/html).

Woran bindet sich die Emotion des Zuschauers im Kino? Und wie lasst sich eine Geschichte dieser Bindung schreiben? Mit Blick auf diese Fragen konzipiert die Arbeit von Hauke Lehmann die filmhistorische Periode des New Hollywood als einen Moment der Krise, der sich weder auf okonomisch bedingte Anpassungsprozesse noch auf eine Ansammlung von Meisterwerken reduzieren lasst. Vielmehr gelangt in der detaillierten Analyse reprasentativer Filme die Kraft filmischer Bilder in den Blick, ihre Zuschauer zu affizieren: sie mit dem Neuen zu konfrontieren. Die Filme des New Hollywood vermessen das Feld der alten poetischen Einteilungen - wie es sich im klassischen Genresystem manifestiert - radikal neu und verandern dadurch die Art und Weise, wie die Zuschauer im Kino emotional adressiert werden. Die Arbeit beschreibt ein komplexes Zusammenspiel dreier filmischer Modi von Affektivitat - Suspense, Paranoia und Melancholie - welche die Zuschauer auf je besondere Weise in die Widerspruche ihrer emotionalen Weltbezuge verwickeln. Auf dieser theoretischen Grundlage entwirft die Arbeit das Projekt einer Neukonzeption von Filmgeschichte: als eine Geschichte des Fuhlens, die sich bis in die Gegenwart neu schreiben lasst.
