Paperback. Condition: New. Klee, Paul (illustrator). A frenzied German Expressionist tale of orgy as salvation in Weimar BerlinOriginally published in German in 1919, Potsdamer Platz was Curt Corrinth's first novel to employ an expressionistic, frenetic prose and presented his excessive vision of free love. Inspired by the sex theories of Freud's controversial disciple Otto Gross, Corrinth preached the sexual orgy as a means to salvation and universal copulation as a new world religion.The book's provincial protagonist, Hans Termaden, arrives in Berlin, where he quickly evolves from city rube to sexual messiah as he converts prostitutes and virgins into sensual warriors and frees men of sexual inhibitions. As word of his exploits spreads, people flock to his headquarters in Potsdamer Platz, turning all buildings into brothels. Police and army attempt to bring order but themselves defect to take part in the spreading copulation as Corrinth's prose itself begins to fragment and melt on the page.Decried in its time, Postdamer Platz can be read today as a portal into the cultural excesses of Weimar Berlin. This first English translation includes the original illustrations done by Paul Klee for the book's 1920 deluxe edition.Curt Corrinth (1894-1960) studied law until serving in the military in World War I, which resulted in his embracing an antiwar and anti-bourgeois stance through his poetry and then through a series of novels, three of which would be banned by the Nazis in 1933. In 1955, he moved to the GDR in East Berlin, where he died five years later.

8°. 322 S. Illustriertes Oln. Gutes Exemplar. Erste Ausgabe der letzten Veröffentlichung des Dichters. WG 23. Raabe 53, 25. Der zunächst zum Expressionsimus zu zählende Autor (1894-1960), der mit einigen seiner Werke, u.a. den Romanen "Trieb" und "Bordell" nicht nur in bürgerlichen oder kirchlichen Kreisen auf Ablehnung stieß, schaftte es trotz Verbot seiner Bücher und einjähriger Schutzhaft auch im NS-Staat als Autor, Redakteur und Dramaturg tätig zu sein. Auf die Liste des unerwünschten Schriftums kam nicht zuletzt auch sein 1929 entstandenes und Aufsehen erregendes, gegen den Antisemitismus gerichtetes, Schauspiel "Trojaner", das er aber nach 1933 kurzerhand zu dem durchaus NS-konformen Roman "Hellmann der Führer" umschrieb, der dann 1946 wiederum durch die sowjetische Besatzungsmacht verboten wurde. Was ihn aber nicht hinderte 1955 in die DDR überzusiedeln, um dort noch einigermaßen erfolgreich zu sein, während er im Westen völlig in Vergessenheit geriet. Sprache: de.

gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Curt Corrinths rauschhaft erotisierender Roman »Potsdamer Platz« wurde nach seinem Erscheinen im Jahr 1919 wegen des Vorwurfs Pornographie zu verbreiten verboten. Wer die von Paul Klee illustrierte Groteske heute liest, weiß warum. Und es lässt sich erahnen, mit wie viel Freude der Autor diesen expressionistischen mit religiös anmutenden Psalmen durchwirkten Minnegesang über den »neuen Messias«, der aus der Provinz nach Berlin kommt, um am Potsdamer Platz zunächst sich selbst und dann die ganze Stadt in einen kollektiven Lustrausch zu versetzen, niedergeschrieben hat. Das einzige von Paul Klee durchgestaltete und illustrierte Buch - beinahe 100 Jahre nach Erscheinen in einer originalgetreuen Neuausgabe mit zehn ganzseitigen Illustrationen. 96 pp. Deutsch.
