摘要

华丽的色彩和装饰、异国情调的人物和风景，以及令人惊叹的旅程和魔法，可能与《天方夜谭》童话的其他欧洲改编作品相似。然而，非凡的技术和政治创新使Lotte Reiniger 1926年的《Scherenschnite》影子动画电影《Die Abenteuer des Prinzen Achmed》与众不同。本文对Reiniger不断发展的技术和叙事方法进行了各种解读，使对电影创新的无问题庆祝以及对电影作为东方主义者的批评变得复杂，认为这两个方面在复杂的方面是相互依存的。技术壮举和东方主义的比喻同时掩盖了进步的信息，让观众想象一个不同的世界。

‘Lover of Shadows’: Lotte Reiniger’s Innovation, Orientalism, and Progressivism

The opulent colours and ornamentation, exotic characters and landscapes, as well as astonishing journeys and magic may resemble other European adaptations of Arabian Nights fairy tales. Yet remarkable technical and political innovations distinguish Lotte Reiniger’s 1926 ‘Scherenschnitte’ shadow animation film Die Abenteuer des Prinzen Achmed. Engaging with various readings of Reiniger’s evolving technical and narrative approaches, this article complicates unproblematized celebrations of the film’s innovations as well as critiques of the film as Orientalist, arguing that both facets are in complex ways interdependent. The technical feats and orientalist tropes at once veil the progressive messaging and permit the audience to imagine a different world.

期刊介绍： Oxford German Studies is a fully refereed journal, and publishes in English and German, aiming to present contributions from all countries and to represent as wide a range of topics and approaches throughout German studies as can be achieved. The thematic coverage of the journal continues to be based on an inclusive conception of German studies, centred on the study of German literature from the Middle Ages to the present, but extending a warm welcome to interdisciplinary and comparative topics, and to contributions from neighbouring areas such as language study and linguistics, history, philosophy, sociology, music, and art history. The editors are literary scholars, but seek advice from specialists in other areas as appropriate.
