Mother of the nation? The German Democratic Republic’s forgotten television star, Agnes Kraus
Agnes Kraus was one of the most recognizable and popular television actors in the German Democratic Republic. She rose to prominence in the 1970s when she became known for almost exclusively playing Berlin mothers, grandmothers and widows, whose brusque but caring manner was exaggerated for comedic effect, and her characters frequently served as the bearers of traditions and community cohesion. The lasting appeal of Kraus and her characters among…
Revisiting the crimes of the past
More than seven decades after the liberation of concentration camps across Europe, we are witnessing the jostle between communicative and cultural memory to determine how the Holocaust is inscribed in a post-victim and post-perpetrator world. This article will explore how German filmmakers are responding to the shift from memory to remembrance through three films: Im Labyrinth des Schweigens (Labyrinth of Lies, 2014), Der Staat gegen Fritz Bauer …
The Paradox of German Power
East, West and Centre
Screening Out the East
This article examines the previously unexplored role of the Cannes Film Festival as an alternative arena for Cold War politics and the playing out of the West German Hallstein Doctrine in 1957 and 1959.

Association of Insurance Status and Age With Cervical Cancer Stage at Diagnosis
Objectives. We examined the relationship of age at diagnosis and insurance status with stage among cervical cancer patients aged 21 to 85 years. Methods.

We evaluated the association between late stage (stage III/IV) and both insurance and age, with adjustment for race/ethnicity and other sociodemographic and cli…
Changes in smoking prevalence among U.S. adults by state and region
State level policies on cigarette excise taxes and indoor air legislation correlate strongly with reductions in smoking prevalence since 1992. Strengthening and systematically implementing these policies could greatly accelerate further reductions in smoking
Agobard of Lyons and Paschasius Radbertus as Critics of the Empress Judith
The Empress Judith has been assigned a central role in the reign of Louis the Pious. But the part she has played has been a controversial one. Judith has been stigmatized as a problem, if not the problem, in the reign. In July 817 Louis had made arrangements for the succession in the Ordinatio imperii , which divided the Empire between his three legitimate sons, Lothar, Pippin, and the young Louis: a few months after the death of their mother, Ir…
