The Histories of Film History conference aims at providing
insight into the fabrication of film history and the discourses on its
theories and methods in the past in order to contribute to a better
understanding and critical reconsideration of film history today.
The
conference proposes a transnational, entangled and culturally diverse
approach to the archaeology of film history, while paying specific
attention to persons, objects, infrastructures, regions, institutional
fields and events hitherto overlooked.
With the historical
explorations of the making of film history from the 19th to the 21st
century the conference aims to revisit film history from a fresh angle
that provides new insights into the theories and practices, the
mechanisms and strategies involved in the on-going process of doing,
undoing and redoing film history.
