German Culture Through Film

Meer over het boek

German Culture through Film is part of a two book series, along with Arbeitsbuch zu German Culture through Cinema. This text covers thirty-one films with emphasis on German language skills. The series is designed to appeal to professors who teach courses in general education, liberal arts, cinema, or who conduct a course in German film exclusively in English, or for where students share the same class (and films) with those studying the German language. Each chapter includes: - Portions of the screen play, generally 2 or 3 scenes each running a page or two - A division of the film into 5 or 6 parts with each part having a listing of that section’s scenes and a brief summary of the scene. Each brief summary is followed by 4-6 questions - Vocabulary exercises that require students to match words and expressions in one list with those of another. (A few chapters have grammar exercises) - Information boxes that give background on the film as well as history and culture needed to understand the movie - A brief summary (120 words) which recycles vocabulary and asks students to fill in 5-7 mixing vocabulary word
