Michael Witt – författare

Originally released as a videographic experiment in film history, Jean-Luc Godard's Histoire(s) du cinéma has pioneered how we think about and narrate cinema history, and in how history is taught through cinema. In this stunningly illustrated volume, Michael Witt explores Godard's landmark work as both a specimen of an artist's vision and a philosophical statement on the history of film. Witt contextualizes Godard's theories and approaches to historiography and provides a guide to the wide-ranging cinematic, aesthetic, and cultural forces that shaped Godard's groundbreaking ideas on the history of cinema.

If your job involves working with digital content, your need to make sense of interoperable digital information by managing resources with care and quality metadata and by connecting users to resources—and resources to resources—is greater than ever. In this issue of Library Technology Reports, Michael Witt helps you do just that. If you are an Electronic Resources Librarian, Digital Archivist or work with Digital Catalogs in any capacity, this report is a must-read for you.The Open Archives Initiative Object Reuse and Exchange specification defines a set of new standards for the description and exchange of aggregations of web resources. This presents an exciting opportunity to revisit how digital libraries are managing. ORE and its concept of aggregation—that a set of digital objects of different types and from different locations on the web can be described and exposed together as a single, compound entity—may present the next major disruptive technology for librarians who develop and manage collections of digital information. This technology could change your job.Michael Witt is the interdisciplinary research librarian and assistant professor of library science at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, and an expert on the technology behind digital content management. Through real-world examples, extensive diagrams and careful explanation, he details the potential of this exciting new technology, and how it can make the management and searching of your digital content more effective and efficient.

This multi-authored survey offers an innovative and accessible account of the richness and diversity of French film history from the 1890s to the 2010s. In this fascinating volume, Michael Temple and Michael Witt propose new insights into familiar areas and set out a fresh agenda for the study and appreciation of French cinema. Structured according to seven key themes – people, business, technology, forms, representations, spectators and debates – this key text poses important questions and interesting challenges for students and teachers, and suggests prospective lines of enquiry for researchers.

This is an ideal companion for undergraduate and postgraduate students on courses devoted to topics such as film history, film technology, silent cinema, film theory, and European and French cinema. Engaging and accessible, this book will also appeal to fans of French cinema everywhere.

This book offers the first study of the French-Swiss filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard's vast body of over 380 unmade, unfinished and abandoned projects over the course of his career from the late 1940s to the 2020s. While Godard is widely recognised as one of the most important and influential filmmakers of the post-war period, extremely little has been written about his largely invisible and unknown corpus of unrealised works. This includes many unmade films, videos and television programmes alongside a wide range of unfinished non-audiovisual ventures such as plays, books, exhibitions, a CD, a camera, a film journal, and even an architectural maquette. Drawing on extensive research on the surviving traces of these projects in archives and private collections, Michael Witt's comprehensive survey establishes the extent and constitution of the Godardian corpus of unrealised and abandoned works for the first time and examines them in detail in six key perspectives: literature, cinema, theatre, television, politics and history. The volume includes in-depth case studies of numerous major unfinished initiatives by Godard and his collaborators in locations around the globe (France, the Middle East, the USA, Quebec, the People's Republic of Mozambique), charts the extensive connections between his abandoned projects and his completed works, casts in relief his creative process, and offers a fresh way of thinking about and approaching his practice and oeuvre as a whole. A full annotated list of his unrealised and abandoned projects is included as an appendix.

Jean-Luc Godard left behind more than three hundred unrealized projects, from feature films and television pieces to plays, books, exhibitions and even a camera design. Jean-Luc Godard’s Unmade and Abandoned Projects is the first full account of this unseen body of work.Using material from archives and private collections, Michael Witt reconstructs these unfinished ventures and sets them in context across six areas: literature, cinema, theatre, television, politics and history. Detailed case studies range from an anti-colonial production planned in Mozambique to book and video projects in France, a television experiment in Quebec, and uncompleted films in America and the Middle East, showing how ideas discarded in one period often resurface in later works.By mapping the connections between Godard’s abandoned plans and his completed output, this unique volume offers a new perspective on the filmmaker’s creative process and reassesses his artistic legacy.

Unterschätzen Sie nie einen Mann, der (k)einen Plan hat»It''s a Man''s World«, sang einst James Brown und die Verhältnisse waren klar geregelt. Doch das ist lange vorbei und die Gewissheit, dass Männer die Welt bewegen, ebenso. An den Mann von heute werden vielfältige Anforderungen herangetragen: Er soll Kinder erziehen (geschlechtsneutral), sich bewusst ernähren (vegan), kochen können, auf seine Figur achten, handwerklich geschickt sein, stark sein, schwach sein, Komplimente machen (keine sexistischen!) und nach Möglichkeit wissen, wer Sophie Passmann ist.Das ist alles viel zu viel? »Ach was«, sagt Michael Witt, »nehmen Sie''s wie ein Mann!« Männliche Autorität ist ohnehin längst eine Illusion. Wie heißt es doch: Hinter jedem starken Mann steht eine Frau, die mit den Augen rollt.
