German experssionism and 'Metropolis' (Fritz Lang)Leonie Krieger
The document provides background information on German Expressionism and its influence on Fritz Lang's film Metropolis. It discusses the social conditions in Germany after World War 1, including the heavy casualties suffered and economic hardships faced due to war reparations and hyperinflation. During this period, Germany experienced an artistic movement called Expressionism in film and other arts as a reaction to these difficulties. Expressionist films did not shy away from depicting disturbing or taboo topics. The document also gives examples of influential Expressionist artists like Ernst Kirchner and their stylistic techniques before discussing Fritz Lang's 1927 film Metropolis, considered one of the most famous works of German Expressionist cinema.
The Bauhaus was one of the first colleges of design, founded in Weimar, Germany in 1919. It was innovative in its approach to art and design education. Walter Gropius was the founder and first director, influencing the school with his ideas about integrating art, craft, and technology. The Bauhaus brought together many outstanding artists and architects and is known for its emphasis on simplified forms and functional design.
Walter Gropius designed the iconic Bauhaus building in Germany. As both an architect and founder of the Bauhaus school, Gropius believed that form should follow function. The modernist Bauhaus building had a straightforward design with flat roofs, cubic shapes, and smooth facades made of glass, steel, and light colors that separated functions internally while allowing them to interact. The building pioneered open floor plans and mass production techniques that went on to influence modern architecture globally.
The Bauhaus school was a German art school operational from 1919-1933 that combined crafts and fine arts. It was founded by Walter Gropius in Weimar and later relocated to Dessau and Berlin under his leadership and those of Hannes Meyer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The school emphasized simplicity, functionality, and craftsmanship and had influence on modern architecture and design. Notable achievements included furniture, lighting, and other object designs that combined aesthetic appeal with industrial materials and mass production capabilities.
Frank Gehry is an American architect born in 1929 in Toronto, Canada. He is known for his innovative designs that feature unusual shapes and dramatic forms inspired by nature. Some of his most famous buildings include the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain (1997), the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles (2003), and the Weisman Art Museum in Minneapolis (1993). Gehry often uses new technologies like CAD software to design complex curved shapes out of materials like steel, glass, and stone. His unique architectural style has transformed buildings into works of art and has had a significant influence on modern architecture.
The Bauhaus school was formed in 1919 in Germany by Walter Gropius with the goal of uniting art and craftsmanship. It emphasized functional and minimalist design using modern materials like glass, steel, and concrete. Bauhaus architecture was characterized by sleek visuals, flat roofs, geometric accents, and the principle of "form follows function". The style became synonymous with modernity and still influences design trends today through its emphasis on simplicity, functionality, and industrial materials.
Kisho Kurokawa was a famous Japanese architect known for his unique designs. Some of his notable buildings included the Nakagin Capsule Tower in Tokyo, known for its modular pod-like design; the National Art Center in Tokyo, with its concept of a forest becoming an art center; and the Kashima Town public office, shaped like an ancient tomb. Kurokawa was also the first person in Japan to design a capsule hotel. He had a long career designing buildings across Japan and in other countries before his death in 2007.

German Expressionism arose in the 1920s in Germany as a reaction to World War 1. It used stylistic techniques like sharp angles, dramatic shadows, and high contrast lighting to create a sense of paranoia and unease. One of its most famous films, Metropolis, showed the divisions in German society between the upper and working classes. These German Expressionist films influenced the later American film noir genre of the 1940s, which also used low-key lighting and shadows to portray themes of distrust and corruption. Elements of both these earlier cinematic styles can still be seen in modern horror films through the use of lighting, shadows, and urban settings.

German Expressionism was an influential but overlooked art movement in early 20th century Germany that explored emotional and psychological themes through distorted and exaggerated settings and characters. It influenced many films, plays, paintings and other artistic mediums. Expressionism grew popular in the 1920s but declined under Nazi rule, as Hitler favored classical styles and Expressionism was deemed anti-German. Many German Expressionist artists fled to America and continued developing the style, which went on to influence later films noir and Hollywood works through immigrant artists and techniques. Key Expressionist films like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Nosferatu helped establish the horror and science fiction genres.
How to write an accurate analytic paragraph :)Leonie Krieger
In his poem Homo Suburbiensis, Bruce Dawe uses poetic techniques such as imagery, ambiguity, and alliteration to portray his perception of the Australian identity as a down-to-earth "true blue" Aussie bloke. Specifically, Dawe depicts the typical suburban Australian man relaxing alone in his backyard, using the space to reflect on life away from his family. The title of the poem presents this character as "Homo Suburbiensis," likening him to a species that finds peace and solitude in the ordinary routines of suburban life.

Key concepts for the module include growing up, transitions in life, relationships, personal values, independence, and social stereotypes.
A concept of change is a clear, specific theory about how change occurs. Some examples of concepts of change are that different individuals will respond differently to change, change is the positive result of a challenging process, and individuals need encouragement and guidance as they navigate change and new ideas. A concept is more like a theory and should not use text-specific language. It provides a framework for understanding how change happens at an individual or social level.
Chapter 1 - language techniques in Animal Farm - George OrwellLeonie Krieger
Here are examples of persuasive techniques in Old Major's speech:
1. Rule of three: "we are born, we are given just so much food as will keep the breath in our bodies, and those of us who are capable of it are forced to work to the last atom of our strength"
2. Rhetorical question: "But is this simply part of the order of nature? Is it because this land of ours is so poor that it cannot afford a decent life to those who dwell upon it?"
3. Emotive language: "No animal in England knows the meaning of happiness or leisure after he is a year old. No animal in England is free. The life of an animal is misery and slavery
