Alexander Kluge is best known as a founding member of the New German Cinema movement, but his work has spanned a number of genres and media. For more than a half century now, he has enjoyed respect as a seemingly boundless source of social critique, and utopian initiative. In his versatile writings, idiosyncratic films, and innovative television programs, German history provides a continuing point of departure. Complex and conflicted, this history, maintains Kluge, does not readily lend itself to transparent presentation or easy understanding. This wide-ranging book assembles a diverse selection of texts, from nonfiction writings and short stories by Kluge, to critical essays by renowned international scholars on Kluge’s work, to transcripts of interviews with the artist himself.
