- W79428052 abstract "This dissertation evaluates the career and work of the underappreciated AustrianJewish-American novelist, dramatist, essayist and screen writer Gina Kaus (1894 – 1985). The dissertation’s approach is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from the fields of German, American, exile, literary, feminist, performance, global, cultural as well as film studies. The unusually diverse corpus of Kaus’s work in both the literary and filmic medium makes such an interdisciplinary approach indispensable. The dissertation argues that Kaus’s specific female and little visible exile experience was shaped and accompanied by a significant, social, cultural, political, linguistic and geographical change. It reconstructs and consciously reinserts Kaus’ transatlantic accomplishments into the larger exile history. My dissertation offers close reading of Gina Kaus’s second play Toni (1928) and positions her piece within the larger landscape of the Weimar Republic and Vienna during the 1920s. The analysis incorporates a feminist reading, which focuses on the performances of gender and the representation of femininity. It illustrates the destabilization of gender and sexual identities during the Weimar period. The analysis of Die Uberfahrt (1932), Kaus’s second bestseller novel, discusses her novel as a Zeitroman (novel of the times). It contextualizes her book in terms of its readership and the literary market while examining it as a comment on the political, financial and social circumstances of 1920s Weimar culture. A thorough investigation of two films for which Kaus invented the story and collaborated on the screenplay, namely The Wife Takes a Flyer (directed by Richard Wallace, USA, 1942), an Anti-Nazi comedy, and Three Secrets (directed by Robert Wise, USA, 1950), a melodrama, challenges the persistent idea that Kaus’s work for Hollywood was incapable to live up to her earlier literary and theatrical successes as an author of the Weimar period. My particular focus on the representation of femininity and female" @default.
