Abstract

Konrad Klejsa in the book Pamięć lat nazizmu w niemieckim filmie fabularnym lat 1946-1965 [The Mem­ory of the Nazi Period in the German Feature Film 1946-1965] (2015) deals with the problems of German post-war cinema confronting Nazism and its contexts. The author takes up the problem in a complex, extended way, going beyond a typical film studies approach, and his thoughts on films are in tune with his historical and political reflection. The connection between multidimensional reflections on the twenty years of German cinema history in the perspective of the Nazi past is the problem of the study of memory, which incorporates Klejsa’s publication into a universal and international research context. His mono­graph is a reliable, original study of issues so far selectively and insufficiently developed.
