Описание:
This study examines the force of tradition in conservative German visual culture, exploring thematic continuities in the post-conflict representation of battlefield identities from the Franco-Prussian War in 1870-71 to the demise of the Weimar Republic in 1933.
Using over 40 representative images sampled from both high and popular culture, Paul Fox discusses complex and interdependent visual responses to a wide spectrum of historical events, spanning world war, regional conflict, internal security operations, and border skirmishes. The book demonstrates how all the artists, illustrators and photographers whose work is addressed here were motivated to affirm German moral superiority on the battlefield. They produced images that advanced dominant notions of how the ideal German man should behave when at war - even when the outcome was defeat. Their construction of an imagined martial masculinity based on aggressive moral superiority became so deeply rooted in German culture that it eventually provided the basis for a programmatic imagining of how Germany might again recover its standing as a great military power in Central Europe in the wake of defeat in 1918.
The Image of the Soldier in German Culture, 1871-1933 is an important volume for any historian interested cultural history, the representation of armed conflict in European culture, the history of modern Germany, the Franco-Prussian War, and the First World War.

Описание: This book addresses the nature and role of fear in the German world from the early modern period through to the 20th century. Offering the first collection that centres fear in the historical analysis of central Europe since 1600, these essays demonstrate the importance of emotional experience to the study of the past.
Fear has been at the centre of many of the most important historical events in this region; witch hunts, religious conflicts, invasions and ultra-nationalism in the form of the Nazi regime. This book explores ways in which fear was understood, developed and negotiated throughout these historical contexts, and how people of the German world coped with it. From the fear of vampires to the loss of national sovereignty, pestilence, gypsies and criminals, Fear in the German Speaking World 1600-2000 draws connections between cases over a period of 400 years and considers fear alongside the history of emotions more generally. In doing so, the chapters reveal a complex, evolving construction of fear that is universally human, but also dependent upon its cultural and historical context.

Описание: This study examines the force of tradition in conservative German visual culture. It explores thematic continuities in the post-conflict representation of battlefield identities, from the 25th anniversary of the Franco-Prussian War in 1895 to the demise of the Weimar Republic in 1933. Using 40 carefully chosen images taken from both high and low culture, Paul Fox discusses complex, interdependent responses in German visual culture to a wide spectrum of operational military experience, including regional conflict, total war, internal security operations and border skirmishes, during the period. The book demonstrates how conservative artists, illustrators, photographers, and sculptors engaged in representing this full spectrum of conflict were preoccupied with the inequalities of battlefield encounters and the consequential quest for moral advantage. They furnished material that exemplified everything positive the ideal German male could hope to be when at war – even when the outcome was defeat. Their construction of an imagined martial masculinity based on an aggressive moral superiority was so deeply rooted that the continuities taken forward eventually provided a basis for a programmatic imagining of how Germany might again exert its political presence as a great military power in Central Europe after 1918. The Image of the Soldier in German Culture, 1871—1933 is an important volume for any historian interested cultural history, the history of modern Germany or the First World War.
Der vorliegende Band vereint Forschungsbeitr?ge der 8. Konferenz der Internationalen Feuchtwanger-Gesellschaft, die im Herbst 2017 im Heinrich Heine Haus in Paris zum Thema «Frankreich als Gastland der deutschsprachigen, insbesondere der deutsch-j?dischen und ?sterreichisch-j?dischen Emigration zwischen 1933 und 1940: Formen und Medien ?ffentlicher Erinnerungskultur» stattfand. Die Erinnerung an vergangene Epochen sowie das Bild, das im R?ckblick von einer bestimmten Zeitspanne entsteht, wird von Gedenkst?tten, aber auch von Texten – ob juristischer, journalistischer oder literarischer Natur – und gegebenenfalls deren ?bersetzung und Archivierung gepr?gt. Auch politische Kampfschriften und Reden, Briefe, Tageb?cher, Ausstellungen, Filme, Gem?lde und Fotographien bewahren Zeitgeschehen f?r die Nachwelt auf.
Die Konferenz widmete sich der Frage, welche Erinnerungen an die deutschsprachige Emigration zwischen 1933 und 1940 in Frankreich noch heute pr?sent sind, inwieweit sie materialisiert, eventuell auch institutionalisiert wurden und welche Ereignisse der damaligen Zeit sich im kollektiven Ged?chtnis nicht verankern konnten. Die Beitr?ge des Bandes konzentrieren sich auf die unterschiedlichen Formen und Medien einer ?ffentlichen Erinnerungskultur im deutsch-franz?sischen Kontext. Der Band verbindet die wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten der Exilforschung mit den Erkenntnissen der Ged?chtnis- und Erinnerungsforschung und leistet somit einen wichtigen Beitrag zur interdisziplin?ren Vernetzung der beiden Forschungsfelder sowie zur Erweiterung der theoretischen Ans?tze im Rahmen der Lion-Feuchtwanger-Forschung.

Over the past century, the impact of football on Germany has been manifold, influencing the arts, political debates, and even contributing to the construction of cultural memories and national narratives. Football Nation analyses the game’s fluid role in shaping and reflecting German society, and spans its focus on modern German history, from the Wilhelmine era to the early 21st century. Expounding on topics of gender, class, fandom, spectatorship, antisemitism, nationalism, and internationalism, a diverse group of interdisciplinary scholars offer a novel approach to understanding the many influences of football throughout its extensive history which until recently has only been available to a German-speaking readership.

Money is more than just a medium of financial exchange: across time and place, it has performed all sorts of cultural, political, and social functions. This volume traces money in German-speaking Europe from the late Renaissance until the close of the twentieth century, exploring how people have used it and endowed it with multiple meanings. The fascinating studies gathered here collectively demonstrate money’s vast symbolic and practical significance, from its place in debates about religion and the natural world to its central role in statecraft and the formation of national identity.

Описание: Vienna’s Dreams of Europe puts forward a convincing counter-narrative to the prevailing story of Austria’s place in Europe since the Enlightenment. For a millennium, Austrian writers have used images of Europe and its hegemonic culture as their political and cultural reference points. Yet in discussions of Europe’s nation-states, Austria appears only as an afterthought, no matter that its precursor states—the Holy Roman Empire, the Austrian Empire, and Austria Hungary—represented a globalized European cultural space outside the dominant paradigm of nationalist colonialism. Austrian writers today confront reunited Europe in full acknowledgment of Austro-Hungary’s multicultural heritage, which mixes various nationalities, ethnicities, and cultural forms, including ancestors from the Balkans and beyond. Challenging standard accounts of 18th- through 20th-century European imperial identity construction, Vienna’s Dreams of Europe introduces a group of Austrian public intellectuals and authors who have since the 18th century construed their own public as European. Working in different terms than today’s theorist-critics of the hegemonic West, Katherine Arens posits a political identity resisting two hundred years of European nationalism.
