Recollecting Lotte Eisner provides the first in-depth examination of the remarkable transnational career of film journalist, archivist, and historian Lotte Eisner (1896-1983). From her early years as a film critic in interwar Berlin to her escape from prison in occupied France and from her role as chief curator at the Cinémathèque française to that as the mythic "collective conscience" of New German Cinema, Eisner was a prolific writer and lecturer and a pivotal voice in early film and media studies. Situated at the juncture of feminist media historiography and disciplinary intellectual history, this groundbreaking book is based on extensive multilingual archival research and the excavation of a rich corpus of previously overlooked materials. Introducing samples of Eisner's writing in translation, this volume makes some of the most important contributions of a foundational scholar in the field of film studies accessible for the first time to an English-language readership.

Sur les ruines de la Première Guerre mondiale surgit en Allemagne un cinéma d'apocalypse, fiévreux et révolté, nourri de théâtre, de peinture et de littérature expressionnistes. Décors convulsifs aux perspectives distordues, intense dramaturgie des ombres et des lumières, personnages inquiétants et romantiques, jeu halluciné des acteurs, la vision expressionniste exprime les angoisses d'un monde qui se sent basculer dans l'horreur. A l'occasion de son 70e anniversaire, la Cinémathèque française présente une exposition inédite sur cette révolution esthétique. Grâce à Lotte H. Eisner et Henri Langlois, la Cinémathèque française possède l'une des plus belles collections de dessins et maquettes signés par des décorateurs de génie œuvrant aux côtés de Robert Wiene, Paul Leni, F. W. Murnau et Fritz Lang. Une iconographie exceptionnelle qu'accompagnent des textes de Lotte H. Eisner, Bernard Eisenschitz, Thomas Elsaesser, Marianne de Fleury, Laurent Mannoni, David Robinson, et un entretien avec Werner Herzog.
