Soft cover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. First Trade Paperback Edition. INVALUABLE: INDISPENSABLE, ENTRALLING, AMBITIOUS: AS-NEW First Trade Paperback Edition (Orig. 1995) Fifth Printing (c. 2010): Volume 3 in the series "Weimar and Now: German Cultural Criticism" edited by Anton Kaes w/ Martin Jay & Edward Dimendberg * 6.48" x 9.74" x 1.86", 1.54 kg, xx+810 (830) pp * ABOUT THE BOOK: A laboratory for competing visions of modernity, the Weimar Republic (1918-1933) continues to haunt the imagination of the 20th century. Its political & cultural lessons retain uncanny relevance for all who seek to understand the tensions & possibilities of our age. "The Weimar Republic Sourcebook" represents the most comprehensive documentation of Weimar culture, history, & politics assembled in any language. It invites a wide community of readers to discover the richness & complexity of the turbulent years in Germany before Hitler's rise to power. Drawing from such primary sources as magazines, newspapers, manifestos, & official documents (many unknown even to specialists & most never before available in English), this book challenges the traditional boundaries between politics, culture, & social life. Its 30 chapters explore Germany's complex relationship to democracy, ideologies of "reactionary modernism," the rise of the "New Woman," Bauhaus architecture, the impact of mass media, the literary life, the tradition of cabaret & urban entertainment, & the situation of Jews, intellectuals, & workers before & during the emergence of fascism. While devoting much attention to the Republic's varied artistic & intellectual achievements (the Frankfurt School, political theater, 12-tone music, cultural criticism, photo-montage, & urban planning), the book is unique for its inclusion of many lesser-known materials on popular culture, consumerism, body culture, drugs, criminality, & sexuality; it also contains a timetable of major political events, an extensive bibliography, & capsule biographies. This will be a major resource & reference work for students & scholars in history; art; architecture; literature; social & political thought; & cultural, film, German, & women's studies. * HIGHEST PRAISE: "'The Weimar Republic Sourcebook' is an INVALUABLE resource for understanding one of the most important & resonant eras of the 20th century. SInce the Weimar debate has continued to repeat itself, albeit w/ less intellectual brilliance, this book is as much about the present as about the past. Here is the Weimar era in all its many-voiced & eloquent complexity: most of these texts, even those by the most famous names of the period, appear for the first time in English. This is an INDISPENSABLE, ENTRALLING, properly AMBITIOUS book." -Susan Sontag * ABOUT THE AUTHORS-EDITORS: ANTON KAES is Professor of German & Director of Film Studies at the University of California, Berkeley.

Condizione: Near Fine. [32] pp. Bound in publisher's side-stapled pictorial wraps. Illustrated with black and white art reproduction photos. Text in German. With laid-in "Der Ewige Jude" (The Wandering Jew) exhibition postcard postmarked Bremen, 1939. Near Fine with light edge wear and age toning; postcard evenly toned, contemporary German stamps on the verso with 1939 postmark. In the aftermath of the confiscation of nearly 20,000 art works from German museums, Adolph Hitler's Ministry of Propaganda organized an exhibition of modern art in order to decry its racially impure, deleterious character and supposed backing by Jewish interests in the Weimar era. The exposition was hosted at the Institute of Archaeology in the Hofgarten, on July 19, 1937 in Munich and later traveled throughout Germany. Organized by the Ministry of Propaganda leader Joseph Goebbels the show was designed to reinforce in the German public mind that subversive, decadent, or avant-garde art work would not be tolerated in the Third Reich. Attended by over two million visitors the show displayed over 650 confiscated paintings, sculptures and prints by 112 artists, primarily German, including Georg Grosz, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Paul Klee, Georg Kolbe, Otto Dix, Wassily Kandinsky, Marc Chagall and many other now-acclaimed modern artists. Targeted artists were the subject of merciless ridicule and denounced with most works displayed unframed and obscured by painted slogans. Attended most famously by Museum of Non-Objective Painting (predecessor to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum) director Hilla Rebay who supported affected artists like Vasily Kandinsky, Rudolf Bauer and others by exhibiting their work in the United States. Many works were destroyed, lost, or re-homed overseas after the fall of the Third Reich. Laid-in is an antisemitic postcard for the third part of a series of Schandausstellungen, or condemnation exhibitions, "Der Ewige Jude" (The Wandering Jew). The show opened on November 8 1937 to January 31, 1938 in Berlin under Joseph Goebbels' direction. The exhibition traveled for the next year and a half, attracting over 700,000 visitors and concluding in March 1939 in Magdeburg. …
