"Queer Cinema: Schoolgirls, Vampires, and Gay Cowboys illustrates queer cinematic aesthetics by highlighting key films that emerged at historical turning points throughout the twentieth century. Barbara Mennel traces the representation of gays and lesbians from the sexual liberation movements of the roaring 1920s in Berlin to the Stonewall Rebellion in New York City and the emergence of queer activism and film in the early 1990s. She explains early tropes of queerness, such as the boarding school or the vampire, and describes the development of camp from 1950s Hollywood to underground art of the late 1960s in New York City. Mennel concludes with an exploration of the contemporary mainstreaming of gay and lesbian films and global queer cinema. Queer Cinema: Schoolgirls, Vampires and Gay Cowboys not only offers an introduction to a gay and lesbian film history, but also contributes to an academic discussion about queer subversion of mainstream film." --

Le cinéma met en jeu deux plaisirs antithétiques : regarder et être regardé, voyeurisme et exhibitionnisme. À une époque où gays et lesbiennes sont présents à la télévision et au cinéma, comme personnages centraux ou en tant que proches, voisins ou amis de ces derniers, il est intéressant de revenir sur un passé où ces personnages pouvaient être discrédités. Car sexualité et genre ont joué un rôle primordial dans l’histoire du cinéma. Ces déviants tragiques et monstrueux, ancêtres des gays et lesbiennes bien intégrés dans la réalité contemporaine, émaillent l histoire du cinéma queer (ou LGBT). La trajectoire du cinéma queer n a pas suivi une progression linéaire, loin s en faut. Cet ouvrage, paru aux États-Unis dans la collection « Short Cuts », s efforce de réunir les moments importants et les tournants décisifs de son histoire.

In the last five years of the twentieth century, films by the second and third generation of the so-called German guest workers exploded onto the German film landscape. Self-confident, articulate, and dynamic, these films situate themselves in the global exchange of cinematic images, citing and rewriting American gangster narratives, Kung Fu action films, and paralleling other emergent European minority cinemas. This, the first book-length study on the topic, will function as an introduction to this emergent and growing cinema and offer a survey of important films and directors of the last tw
