For the first time in English, and in his signature prose poetry, the film scripts of four of Werner Herzog’s early works “Herzog doesn’t write traditional scripts,” Film International remarked of the master filmmaker’s Scenarios I and II. “Instead, he writes scenarios which are like a hybrid of film, fiction, and prose poetry.”Continuing a series that Publishers Weekly pronounced “compulsively readable . . . equal parts challenging and satisfying, infuriating and enlightening,” Scenarios III presents, for the first time in English, the shape-shifting scripts for four of Werner Herzog’s early films: Stroszek; Nosferatu, Phantom of the Night; Where the Green Ants Dream; and Cobra Verde. We can observe Herzog’s working vision as each of these scenarios unfolds in a form often dramatically different from the film’s final version—as, in his own words, Herzog works himself up into “this kind of frenzy of high-caliber language and concepts and beauty.”With Scenarios I and II, this volume completes the picture of Herzog’s earliest work, affording a view of the filmmaker mastering his craft, well on his way to becoming one of the most original, and most celebrated, artists in his field.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Agnes von Waiblingen (1072-1143) war die einzig überlebende Tochter des Canossa-Kaisers Heinrich IV. Sie und ihr erster Gemahl Herzog Friedrich I. von Schwaben sind die Eltern des ersten staufischen Königs Konrad III. Über ihn wurde Agnes Stammmutter des wohl bedeutendsten mittelalterlichen Herrschergeschlechts der Staufer. Nach dem Tod Herzog Friedrichs heiratete sie in zweiter Ehe Markgraf Leopold III., den Heiligen, von Österreich und hatte mit ihm mindestens elf weitere Kinder, darunter den großen mittelalterlichen Geschichtsschreiber Otto von Freising und den ersten österreichischen Herzog Heinrich II. Jasomirgott. Mit Letzterem wurde Agnes auch Stammmutter des herzoglichen Zweiges der Babenberger. Wie keine andere Frau der Geschichte umringen Agnes innerhalb ihrer Familie zahlreiche gekrönte Häupter. Der Grad ihrer Stellung und die ihr entgegengebrachte hohe Wertschätzung werden dabei nicht nur aus ihrer Einbindung in Politik und Rechtsgeschäfte deutlich. Auch ihre kulturellen und künstlerischen Aktivitäten sowie ihre an die beiden Heiligen Elisabeth von Thüringen und Hedwig von Schlesien gemahnende Mildtätigkeit und Frömmigkeit haben dafür gesorgt, dass ihr Leben und Charisma selbst nach neun Jahrhunderten nicht an Faszination und Strahlkraft eingebüßt haben - Gründe, sie unter die bedeutendsten Persönlichkeiten an der Schwelle vom 11. zum12. Jahrhundert einzureihen. 362 pp. Deutsch

Part I deals with ethnological and mythological material consisting of reports and traditions from around the world. In Part II Herzog examines the dreams of contemporary men and women and links those dreams to the symbolic images and rites of Death.
