Book Synopsis
Investigates the extent to which German filmmakers have engaged with the ever more fluid trade of images, meanings, and identities in a globalizing world. This volume traces German cinema's negotiation of the global as a multilayered story in which hopes and fears about the prospect of a more cosmopolitan culture often go hand in hand.

Trade Review
Schindler and Koepnick's formulation of the 'cosmopolitan gaze' as a vehicle for the constitution of a post-national German film studies is both cogent and charged with fruitful possibilities for future work in the field. The admirable mix of lucidity and critical sophistication which this array of scholars bring to their subject will make The Cosmopolitan Screen essential reading for students, scholars, and researchers. - Erica Carter, Professor and Chair of German Studies, University of Warwick
