As the days got shorter and colder, the annual lantern season in the year 1913-1914 took off with a new winter program. With the onset of spring, the number of lantern lectures decreased significantly. So, although unusual events were occurring on the world stage, in the summer of 1914 it was as quiet as usual in the theatre halls and societies of Antwerp and Brussels. By the time the new lantern season should have resumed at the beginning of September, however, Brussels had fallen into the hands of German occupiers¹. In Antwerp resounded, instead of applause after a successful illustrated lecture, the tremor of bombs from the zeppelins and guns directed at the city. Soon the city was also occupied. The first declaration of media censorship on the written press and lantern lectures followed almost immediately. Well-established lantern practices did not disappear but changed radically under the influence of the German occupation, censorship, cultural policies and the Flamenpolitik. The latter aimed at creating internal discord by responding to long-held demands of the Flemish Movement". How German cultural and media policy affected the lantern practices in Antwerp and Brussels and how this led to new opportunities for the Flemish Movement will be at the heart of this article.
