Digitisation and indexing of the Leni Riefenstahl estateJoint project of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin (National Museums Berlin), the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin (National Library Berlin) - Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz and the Stiftung Deutsche Kine

电影导演兼摄影师莱妮·里芬斯塔尔（Leni Riefenstahl，1902-2003）在20世纪30年代拍摄的纳粹党纽伦堡代表大会和柏林奥运会的影片对纳粹党的视觉语言产生了决定性的影响。她非常受欢迎的关于苏丹努巴的摄影书和摄影系列，于20世纪70年代和80年代在许多国家出版，是从殖民地的角度对非洲大陆和生活方式的异国情调的描绘的一部分。在她漫长的一生中，里芬斯塔尔编辑了大量的档案，其中也记录了她的公司Leni Riefenstahl Produktion的活动。她一生都在与这个档案馆合作，并以她自己的生活和创造性叙事的精神来策划它。2018年，普鲁士文化遗产基金会收到了莱尼·里芬斯塔尔的遗产，作为唯一继承人的捐赠。通过一项合作协议，德国电影资料馆基金会也被包括在捐赠中。随后，根据学术能力分配馆藏：-书面材料：SBB，Mannapt和珍本部门-照片：SMB，Kunstbibliothek，摄影收藏-民族学对象：SMB，民族学博物馆-电影，音频，技术，纺织品等：在一个联合项目中，所有参与机构都打算将各自的利芬斯塔尔遗产部分数字化，并在其数据库和联合在线门户网站中提供。通过联邦政府文化和媒体专员资助的一个项目，已经有可能对非洲的馆藏进行详细的合作性重新评估。在随后的一个联合项目（电子研究技术）中，将开发一个研究门户，以便能够进行互动联网。处理和提供这一棘手的遗产给项目合作伙伴带来了具有挑战性的道德责任，需要对档案工作和出版进行持续的批判性反思。柏林国家图书馆的手稿部收藏着莱妮·里芬斯塔尔的著作。它集中于1945年之后的时期，包括她各种电影和摄影项目的剧本，笔记和材料，她自己的手稿（例如她的回忆录），她的私人以及商业（Leni Riefenstahl制作）通信，许多个人和官方生活文件以及收集的关于她自己和她的工作的材料。该项目旨在实现对作品、通信和生活文件的系统性学术索引，以及对无权利对象的数字化。因此，这一收藏将首次长期向研究人员和感兴趣的公众开放。

The film director and photographer Leni Riefenstahl (1902-2003) had a decisive influence on the National Socialist visual language with her films of the Nazi Party congresses in Nuremberg and the Olympic Games in Berlin in the 1930s. Her very popular photo books and photo series on the Sudanese Nuba, which were published in many countries in the 1970s and 1980s, are part of an exoticising portrayal of the African continent and ways of life from a colonial perspective. In the course of her long life, Riefenstahl compiled an extensive archive, which also documents the activities of her company Leni Riefenstahl Produktion. She worked with this archive throughout her life and curated it in the spirit of her own life and creative narrative. In 2018, the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation received Leni Riefenstahl's estate as a donation from the sole heir. Through a cooperation agreement, the Stiftung Deutsche Kinemathek was also included in the donation. Subsequently, the holdings were distributed according to scholarly competences: - Written material: SBB, Manuscript and Rare Book Department - Photographs: SMB, Kunstbibliothek, Photography Collection - Ethnological objects: SMB, Ethnological Museum - Film, audio, technology, textiles, etc.: Stiftung Deutsche Kinemathek In a joint project, all participating institutions intend to digitise their respective parts of the Riefenstahl estate and to make them accessible in their databases as well as in a joint online portal. A detailed and collaborative reappraisal of the Africa holdings is already being made possible by a project funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media (BKM). In a subsequent joint project (e-research technologies), a research portal is to be developed that will enable interactive networking. The processing and provision of this difficult legacy presents the project partners with a challenging ethical responsibility that requires continuous critical reflection on archive work and publication. The manuscript department of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin holds the written estate of Leni Riefenstahl. It focuses on the period after 1945 and includes scripts, notes and materials on her various film and photographic projects, her own manuscripts (for example her memoirs), her private as well as business (Leni Riefenstahl production) correspondence, numerous personal and official life documents and the collected materials on herself and her work. The project intendeds to enable systematic scholarly indexing of the works, correspondence and life documents, as well as the digitisation of rights-free objects. Thus, this collection will be made accessible to researchers and an interested public for the first time and in the long term.
