Long description: Als Tableaux vivants oder ‹lebende Bilder› bezeichnet man von lebenden Personen nachgestellte Gemälde oder Skulpturen. Um 1900 erfreute sich diese eigenartige Form der Schaustellung unter anderem auf den Bühnen der großen Varietétheater, auf Volksfesten und bei Vereinsabenden großer Beliebtheit. Der vorliegende Band zeigt, dass Tableaux vivants als wesentlicher Bestandteil der visuellen Kultur dieser Jahre auch einen Bezugsrahmen für die Entstehung des neuen Massenmediums Film bildeten. Dabei werden diverse intermediale Konstellationen in den Blick genommen: gemeinsame Aufführungskontexte und Publikumsschichten, aber auch Filme, die bewusst auf Inszenierungsweisen der älteren Unterhaltungsform zurückgriffen. Der Band präsentiert eine Fülle an historischem Material zu Tableaux-vivants-Aufführungen um 1900 und analysiert zugleich zahlreiche Filme aus dem internationalen Kino der Attraktionen bis 1914, u.a. die magischen Trickfilme von Georges Méliès und Segundo de Chomón, frühe Filmburlesken von Pathé und Gaumont sowie Aufnahmen populärer Varieténummern. Er leistet zudem eine eingehende Auseinandersetzung mit der frühen Filmtheorie der Jahre um 1910. Biographical note: Daniel Wiegand ist Postdoc an der Université Lumière Lyon 2 und forscht zum frühen Tonfilm um 1930

During the Russian Revolution and Civil War, amateur theater groups sprang up in cities across the country. Workers, peasants, students, soldiers, and sailors provided entertainment ranging from improvisations to gymnastics and from propaganda sketches to the plays of Chekhov. In Revolutionary Acts, Lynn Mally reconstructs the history of the amateur stage in Soviet Russia from 1917 to the height of the Stalinist purges. Her book illustrates in fascinating detail how Soviet culture was transformed during the new regime's first two decades in power.Of all the arts, theater had a special appeal for mass audiences in Russia, and with the coming of the revolution it took on an important role in the dissemination of the new socialist culture. Mally's analysis of amateur theater as a space where performers, their audiences, and the political authorities came into contact enables her to explore whether this culture emerged spontaneously "from below" or was imposed by the revolutionary elite. She shows that by the late 1920s, Soviet leaders had come to distrust the initiatives of the lower classes, and the amateur theaters fell increasingly under the guidance of artistic professionals. Within a few years, state agencies intervened to homogenize repertoire and performance style, and with the institutionalization of Socialist Realist principles, only those works in a unified Soviet canon were presented.

Against a background which included revolutionary changes in religious belief, extensive enlargement of dramatic styles and the technological innovation of printing, this collection of essays about biblical drama offers innovative approaches to text and performance, while reviewing some well-established critical issues. The Bible in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries appears in a complex of roles in relation to the drama: as an authority and centre of belief, a place of controversy, an emotional experience and, at times, a weapon. This collection brings into focus the new biblical learning, including the re-editing of biblical texts, as well as classical influences, and it gives a unique view of the relationship between the Bible and the drama at a critical time for both.
