Editor's foreword / Jon Woronoff -- Preface -- Acronyms and abbreviations -- Chronology -- Introduction -- The dictionary -- The 100 most significant German films
"The history of German film is diverse and multifaceted, considering the five distinct German governments (Wilhelmine Germany, Weimar Republic, Third Reich, Federal Republic of Germany, and German Democratic Republic) and two national identities (Germany and Austria) of the past 120 years. Paradoxically, the political disruptions, as well as the natural inclination of artists to rebel and create new styles, has allowed for the construction of a German film narrative. Disjuncture generates distinct points of separation and also highlights continuities between the ruptures. Historical Dictionary of German Cinema examines the history of German cinema through a chronology, an introduction, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on directors, actors, classic films, major cinematographers, composers, and producers."--BOOK JACKET
