So in addition to on-set anecdotes and accounts of diplomatic controversies at her hot-ticket promotional appearances, this book offers an insight into the divergent paths of stage and screen practice, and stardom, in the 1920s. Nielsen records these changes, and she makes film history happen. Allen’s publication makes it happen all over again. Nielsen’s experience was of course coloured by her success. She accumulates many victories and compliments across the course of the book, but the tone is not entirely triumphalist. This is partly because she is recounting the highlights of her career from a distance, after the slightly humbling experience of returning to Denmark, the country she left in order to achieve stardom, where she found herself much less revered, even resented. Tactfully, all she conveys of this comedown is a recollection of her fear as she leaves Germany: ‘What place do I have in a country that has become so foreign to me?’ (312) The story she tells is also a selective one. Nielsen is rigorously coy about her private life, including lovers and husbands only when (or if) they are artistic collaborators and making no mention of her daughter. She writes in an epilogue, ‘my book was intended to paint a picture of my work in film and the theater, which audiences have a right to know something about, that is to say a picture of me that belongs to the public’ (315). While this may frustrate readers of a biographical bent, Nielsen’s conviction that her work, rather than her romances, is of primary interest is central to her star identity. Nielsen’s creations on screen, like her creation on the printed page, are her own, and therefore the true ‘Die Asta’ – the public persona of a complex and brilliant woman.","PeriodicalId":42697,"journal":{"name":"Early Popular Visual Culture","volume":"41 1","pages":"483 - 485"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77662251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Originally published with the title Hans Huckebein in 1897 and written by Oscar Blumenthal and Gustav Kadelburg, the play remained outside the horizon of early cinema scholars, although it is a rich inventory of different modes of using and interpreting moving images. The Budapest performance of the play incorporates the screening of a cinema program, including a hitherto unknown (Lumière?) film commissioned by the theatre. The characters and the theatrical audience become film viewers, and this experience is extensively debated on stage. Instantaneous photography and moving image recording allowed for trespassing the boundary between private and public, since the model’s consent was not technically required for the recording process. The ‘scandal’ staged by the play is the presentation of a (moving) image ‒ considered personal and private ‒ in the public space of the cinema. The debate around this scandal contributes to the redefinition of both personal identity, construed increasingly as an image, and the public sphere as a realm of censored images. The article sets out to map the variability of practices and cultural codes ‒ such as theatrical plots, practices of instant and studio photography, personal image protection, copyright ‒ that affected the interpretation and uses of moving images.","PeriodicalId":42697,"journal":{"name":"Early Popular Visual Culture","volume":"35 1","pages":"451 - 470"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77750357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inspired by the agenda of media archaeology, I argue that an analysis of this medium that goes beyond excavating details of an obscured optical recreation can bring new insight into our understanding of peep media and nineteenth-century visual culture. By discussing the origin and circulation of the paper peepshow and detailing the clear distinction between it and media like the peepshow box and pop-up books, I detach the paper peepshow from the genealogy of these media while stressing the significance of its intermedial relationship with other nineteenth-century visual entertainments. I then adopt the notion of embodied knowledge to explore users’ engagement with this medium, drawing from personal handling experience in archives as well as theoretical conceptualisations. My article argues that peering into the paper peepshow should be understood as an act of creativity and imagination, and that the tactile played a crucial role in users’ interaction with this medium. This study thus fits well in debates about the embodied or multi-sensory vision in the nineteenth-century context, and functions as another example that affirms the active agency of users of visual recreations of this period. Overall, by analysing significant features of the paper peepshow and the experience of peeping into it, my research also constitutes a small but important expansion in the current understanding of peep media.","PeriodicalId":42697,"journal":{"name":"Early Popular Visual Culture","volume":"323 1","pages":"434 - 450"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78392730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

What her book does marvellously well is it exposes the exceptionally high level of both entrepreneurial and creative spirit found right across the region, producing extraordinary work, often with precariously limited means. It is precisely this industrious production and consumption of ‘the sublime’ in the Balkans that places it on an equal footing with the ongoing aspirations of the West. If the Balkan region can, as this book demonstrates, live beyond and outside the West, then there really was no reason to have to continually pivot its existence back to it. Quite the opposite. A strong feeling remains that this is what should have precisely been the objective of the work, not just to ‘unhinge’ the Balkans from the West, but to allow the former to legitimately formulate its own parameters without having to pay any dues, even if the Cinématograph did arrive from Paris. While the Cinématograph was flâneuring through, its fleeting presence was insignificant in comparison to the cross-fertilising cultural effects that it left behind, which in themselves are the focus of this brilliant study.","PeriodicalId":42697,"journal":{"name":"Early Popular Visual Culture","volume":"78 1","pages":"401 - 403"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88005129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
