Critical Inquiry Critical Inquiry
Miriam Bratu Hansen (1949–2011) was one of the great film scholars of our time. She was also a friend and colleague to us at Critical Inquiry. In celebration of the newly-published Cinema and Experience: Siegfried Kracauer, Walter Benjamin, and Theodor W. Adorno, we are proud to present this short film by Miriam's student Christina Petersen, along with a dossier of five major articles from our archives.
Five by Hansen:
“‘With Skin and Hair’: Kracauer's Theory of Film, Marseille 1940”
“‘Schindler's List’ Is Not ‘Shoah’: The Second Commandment, Popular Modernism, and Public Memory”
