After some preliminary observations on the relation between the essay film as a genre and images of the Mediterranean, I shall, on the one hand, have a look at the semantic processes through which the film builds up a recognizable image of the Great Sea. On the other hand, however, I will argue that, at the same time, M{\´e}diterran{\´e}e calls this signifying process into question by representing the sea as a space of cultural memory understood as a space of becoming and of deferral of meaning.}, language = {de} } @article{Christmann2021, author = {Christmann, Tim}, title = {Grenzerfahrung, Grenz{\"u}berschreitung, Grenz{\"u}berwindung: Das Falkland/Malvinas Malvinas-Trauma in Lola Arias' Film Teatro de Guerra (2018)}, series = {promptus - W{\"u}rzburger Beitr{\"a}ge zur Romanistik}, volume = {7}, journal = {promptus - W{\"u}rzburger Beitr{\"a}ge zur Romanistik}, issn = {2364-6705}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-305577}, pages = {17-33}, year = {2021}, abstract = {This article will examine the cinematic approach to the trauma of the Falklands/Malvinas War in Lola Ariasʼ film Teatro de Guerra (AR/ES, 2018). The armed conflict between Ar-gentina and Great Britain in 1982 can be understood as a traumatic liminal experience, whose artistic reception pushes conventional aesthetics to their limits and calls for innova-tive representational strategies. Based on a cultural studies approach to the Falklands/Mal-vinas War as a collective trauma, this contribution will highlight selected moments of aes-thetic border crossing in Teatro de Guerra, by which the film succeeds in transcending boundaries between former enemies of the war.}, language = {de} }
