Dr. Ervin Malakaj (associate professor of German studies) and Shoshana Schwebel (doctoral candidate in German studies) were co-authors of a teaching and research dossier about Richard Oswald’s remarkable queer film melodrama Anders als die Andern (1919).
The dossier includes an introduction to the film, an annotated bibliography, new and existing translations of contemporary reviews, and a sample unit with accompanying sample assignment for undergraduate instruction. The project was published with WeimarCinema.org, an international resource edited by Tony Kaes and Cynthia Walk. You can find the full dossier here.
The project was supported by an UBC OER Rapid Innovation Grant.
