Murder in Marseille 


STG lead(s): Elli Mylonas

Keith Brown has been studying the first political assassination to be captured on film; the 1934 murder of King Alexander of Yugoslavia, in Marseille. He is interested in the political ramifications of the event, as well as the effects of the film as a newsreel in different European countries. In the summer of 2004, he worked with five UTRA students, researching contemporary coverage of the assassination and subsequent murder trial from French, German and Italian newspapers and diplomatic correspondance.

STG is working with Keith Brown to produce a digital monograph, and explore rhetorical structures that will serve to appropriately convey his research results. We will make a website that will serve as the publication of this work.
