From the Mountains to the Lowlands: Depictions of Gender Roles in the Films of Leni Riefenstahl

Robinson, Sean R. 01 June 2017 (has links)
Critics have analyzed Leni Riefenstahl's four feature length films from 1932 to 1954 largely for their depictions of fascist ideals while often neglecting how they represent gender. Viewing Riefenstahl's films using the theoretical gender models of Judith Butler and R.W. Connell provides a greater understanding of gender roles in Germany during both the Weimar and Nazi eras. Beginning with Das Blaue Licht (The Blue Light, 1932), and continuing to Triumph des Willens (Triumph of the Will, 1935), Olympia (1938), and concluding with Tiefland (The Lowlands, 1954), there is a clear evolution of how Riefenstahl understood and represented gender. Riefenstahl's earliest film Das Blaue Licht depicts a strong and independent female protagonist in Junta, but with the rise of fascism in Germany this type of character disappears and evolve into the weak and helpless figures like Martha in Tiefland. This study will look at these films within the cultural context of early-twentieth century Germany and National Socialism to consider how Riefenstahl's films participate in the understanding, articulation, and performance of gender at a crucial turning point in the history of Western Culture.

O império das imagens de Hitler: o projeto de expansão internacional do modelo de cinema nazi-fascista na Europa e na América Latina (1933-1955) / The Hitler empire of image: the international expansion project of Nazi cinemas model in Europe and Latin America (1933 - 1955)

Pereira, Wagner Pinheiro 18 June 2008 (has links)
O propósito principal desta tese de doutorado é desenvolver um estudo de histórias conectadas sobre a expansão internacional do modelo de cinema nazista na Europa e na América Latina, durante as décadas de 1930 e 1950. A influência da Alemanha nazista sobre as indústrias de cinema e as produções cinematográficas da Itália fascista, de Portugal salazarista, da Espanha franquista, do Brasil varguista e da Argentina peronista, representou a tentativa de Berlim tornar-se a Nova Hollywood Mundial e teve importantes implicações políticas, culturais e econômicas em todos esses regimes políticos de massas, que nos propomos analisar. A tese analisa também três instituições político-culturais privilegiadas do III Reich: 1) O Ministério Nacional para Esclarecimento Público e Propaganda (Reichsministerium für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda - RMVP), através do qual o ministro da propaganda nazista, Dr. Joseph Goebbels, empenhou-se na conquista do controle total dos meios de comunicação de massa, na reestruturação forçada das indústrias cinematográficas e na padronização das sessões de cinema, impondo uma produção obrigatória, planejada para aumentar o potencial propagandístico do cinema; 2) A Câmara Internacional de Cinema (Internationale Filmkammer IFK), uma organização internacional de representantes da indústria cinematografia de vinte e duas nações, fundada em 1935 para estabelecer o controle hegemônico da Alemanha nazista sobre um espaço europeu econômico e cultural integrado, que pudesse rivalizar com os modelos de cinema dos Estados Unidos da América e da União Soviética e; 3) A Hispano-Film-Produktion (HFP), através da qual o cinema nazista tentou conquistar os mercados hispânicos (Espanha e América Latina). Em termos gerais, a análise das políticas governamentais, dos principais temas políticos apresentados nos filmes, da influência da censura e de outros aspectos relacionados à produção cinematográfica, tais como legislação, políticas de crédito e sistemas de co-produções entre esses regimes políticos de massas, pretende mostrar como o cinema mundial foi influenciado e controlado pela Alemanha nazista, mas apresentou especificidades que procuramos mostrar neste trabalho. / The main purpose of this PhD Thesis is to develop a connected histories study on the international expansion of Nazi Cinemas model in Europe and Latin America, during the 1930s and 1950s. The Nazi Germanys influence over the film industries and cinematographs productions of Mussolinis Italy, Salazars Portugal, Francos Spain, Vargas Brazil, and Perons Argentine, represented the Berlins ruthless attempts at becoming the New World-Wide Hollywood, and also had important political, cultural and economical implications in all these mass political regimes, that we proposed to analyze. The thesis also analyzes three privileged political-cultural institutions of the III Reich: 1) The Reich Ministry for Popular Enlightenment and Propaganda (Reichsministerium für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda - RMVP), through which the Nazi propaganda minister, Dr. Joseph Goebbels, sought to achieve total control of the mass media communications, forced restructuring of national film industries, and standardized film screening by imposing a compulsory production, designed to enhance films propagandistic potential; 2) The International Film Chamber (Internationale Filmkammer IFK), a international organization of national film industry representatives from twenty-two nations, founded in 1935 to establish a Nazi Germany hegemonic control over an integrated European economic and cultural space that could rival the United States of America and the Soviet Union cinemas models, and; 3) The Hispano-Film-Produktion (HFP), through which Nazi cinema tried to conquer Spanish markets (Spain and Latin America). In general terms, the analysis of the governmental policies, the main politics themes presented on the films, the influence of censorship, and others aspects related to the cinematograph productions, such as legislation, credit policies, and co-productions system between these mass political regimes, present how the world cinema was influenced and controlled by Nazi Germany, but presented specificities that we intend to point out in these PhD thesis.

Grasping at Modernism in 1932: Alternative Readings of Das Blaue Licht, a Collaboration of Leni Riefenstahl and Béla Balázs

Dunleavy Berge, Sara 01 April 2013 (has links)
Moments before the Weimar Republic succumbed National Socialism, and their paths sharply diverged as a result, Leni Riefenstahl and Béla Balázs collaborated to make Das Blaue Licht. Within a year of their collaboration Riefenstahl was working closely with Hitler on plans for Triumph of the Will, and Balázs, a Hungarian Jew, had fled to Moscow without credit or payment for Das Blaue Licht, which he co-wrote and co-directed. This thesis explores multiple readings of Das Blaue Licht, as a modern text, a fascist text, and ultimately, one that exists in a complex gray zone.

O Triunfo da vontade e a estética nazista:o nacional-socialismo como modernidade alternativa / The Triumph of the will and the nazi aesthetic: national socialism as an alternative modernity

Juliane Lassarotte Eichler 22 October 2007 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / O Nacional-socialismo representou, ao negar os princípios centrais da modernidade ocidental, a idéia de uma outra modernidade baseada, ao mesmo tempo, no resgate e na projeção futura das antigas glórias da nação germânica. Neste sentido, o filme O Triunfo da Vontade da cineasta alemã Leni Riefenstahl aparece como a grande representação estética do nazismo, traduzindo em imagens os principais aspectos da ideologia nacional-socialista. Ao trabalhar com extrema genialidade todo um conjunto de referências simbólicas e míticas presentes no imaginário alemão, Riefenstahl construiu, portanto, uma das mais impactantes peças de divulgação do regime hitlerista, apresentando ao mundo os ideais do Terceiro Reich e a força da nova Alemanha. / The National Socialism, as it denied the basic principles of the occidental modernism, represented the idea of another modernity based on the rescue and the future projection of the past glories of the Germanic nation. In this sense, the movie Triumph of the Will produced by the German film-maker Leni Riefenstahl appears as the great representation of the Nazism esthetics, showing through images the main aspects of the National Socialist ideology. By working every symbolic and mythical reference presented in the German imagination with a great geniality, Riefenstahl built one of the most impacting instruments of distribution of the Hitler regime, showing to the world the ideals of the Third Reich and the strength of the New Germany.

As quatro produções selecionadas para análise são A Luz Azul (Das blaue Licht, 1932), O Triunfo da Vontade (Triumph des Willens, 1935), Olympia (Idem, 1938) e Tiefland (Idem, 1954). Embora as películas contemplem temas distintos e tenham sido produzidas com um intervalo de 22 anos, elas possuem unicidade identária em seu cerne. Esta tese percorre os contextos histórico, político e cultural, respectivamente, por meio das obras de Richard Evans (2014), Ian Kershaw (2010), Peter Gay (1978), Siegfried Kracauer (1988) e Lotte Eisner (1985); os conceitos de cultura e identidade são adotados a partir da perspectiva de Denys Cuche (1999) e Clifford Geertz (2015). Para a análise das películas, elegeu-se como metodologia o esquema quaternário de Massimo Canevacci (1990) e a binariedade proposta por Claude Lévi-Strauss (2012 e 2013). Os filmes selecionados fornecem elementos que permitem aferir o espírito do tempo na Alemanha, assim como a ideologia da diretora, que mesmo após a queda do regime nazista manteve em sua obra elementos identitários alinhados com o propósito de Hitler. / This research seeks to investigate on how Leni Riefenstahl used a modernity instrument such as cinema, to explore elements of historical romanticism in Zeitgeist, the “spirit of time” and therefore redefine the Aryan identity in his cinematographic work, as longed by Adolf Hitler. Four productions were chosen for the analysis, including: The Blue Light (Das Blaue Licht, 1932), Triumph of the Will (Triumph des Willens, 1935), Olympia (Olympia, 1938) and Tiefland (Tiefland, 1954). Although the movies contemplate different themes and were produced with an intermission of 22 years, they share an identity oneness in their core. This present thesis travels through the historical, political and cultural contexts, respectively, by means of Richard Evans’ (2014), Ian Kershaw’s (2010), Peter Gay’s (1978), Siegfried Kracauer’s (1988) and Lotte Eisner’s (1985) works; the concepts of culture and identity are adopted from the perspective of Denys Cuche (1999) and Clifford Geertz (2015). For the movies’ analysis, the methodology chosen were the quaternary scheme by Massimo Canevacci (1990) and the binarity proposed by Claude Lévi-Strauss (2012 and 2013). The selected movies provide elements that allow assess to the spirit of time in Germany, as well as the directors’ ideology, that even after the fall of the Nazi regime she kept identity elements in her works, aligned with Hitler’s purpose.
