Screen Nazis

[Dave Monroe]

... from Sabine Hake, Screen Nazis: Cinema, History, and Democracy
(Madison: U of Wisconsin P, 2012), "Introduction," pp. 3-31:

"... the filmic representation of the Third Reich is inseparable from
the political conflicts and debates that inform the imaginary
relationship between fascism and democracy at a particular time and
place ..." (p. 6)

   "The conversion of fascism into an empty signifier ..." (p. 8)
