Foreword. One Hundred Years of Weimar Cinema: The Legacy and the Present of German Expressionism
Main Article Content
Abstract
The cinema produced during the Weimar Republic (1918-1933), including German expressionist cinema, is one of the most complex and fascinating chapters in the cultural history of the 20th century. For this very reason, and on the occasion of the centenary of a year as stylistically rich as 1924, the coordinators of this monograph directed, in the autumn of 2024, the 1st Conference on Weimar cinema, where we discussed some of the ideas that led us to the creation of this monograph. In it, we set out to revisit the legacy of expressionist cinema and fantastic horror films from that period, whose visual, thematic and aesthetic influences are still alive today.
