Legal Tender
by John Griffith UrangTreating films including Leander Hauss/mann's controversial Sonnenalle (1999), Urang (visiting professor of German, Reed College, Portland, Oregon) explores the question of why in so many East German films and novels love trumps the crumbling political culture of the GDR. Citing Niklas Luhmann's Love as Passion: The Codification of Intimacy as a key influence, he examines how the "semantics of love" interact with socialist-realist processes of authoritarianism. While these love stories draw on the Western tradition, they also critique bourgeois romantic love institutions and practices--a metaphor for reunification with West Germany.
