About this title

Synopsis

Hollywood war im fruhen 20. Jahrhundert fasziniert vom "Fernen Osten". Gleichzeitig war die Einwanderung aus China bereits seit 1882 verboten und Rassismus weit verbreitet. Der Spielfilm wurde zu einer Zeit zum beliebtesten Unterhaltungsmedium, in der Fragen zur Immigration und "Rasse" massiv debattiert wurden. "Visualizing Orientalness" untersucht erstmals die Bedeutung von Spielfilmen innerhalb dieser Diskurse. Anlehnend an Ansatze aus den Visual Culture Studies und der Visual History unternimmt Bjorn A. Schmidt eine visuelle Diskursanalyse von Spielfilmen der 1910er bis 1930er Jahre. Er zeigt, wie Filme als Teil der historischen Diskurse und Praktiken, die sie umgaben, chinesische Immigration verhandelten und dazu beitrugen, Chinese Americans als fremd und vermeintlich anders wahrzunehmen.
