Soft cover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: 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.

Condition: new. Pages: 416 Language: Russian. Pod redaktsiej Elizavety ButaMnogie uchenye uekhali iz Germanii s prikhodom "korichnevoj chumy". Oni prokljali i zabyli stranu, kotoraja bukvalno vybrosila ikh na pomojku istorii, no tolko ne Karl Jaspers, reshivshij projti eto ispytanie vmeste so svoim narodom. On prokljal Germaniju v 1945-m. V 1937-m godu ego s pozorom lishili zvanija professora za sochuvstvie evrejam, a zatem byvshie kollegi stali travit professora. Uchenyj ne zakhotel uezzhat iz strany dazhe togda. Dolgikh vosem let on pisal "v stol" i zhil pod ezhednevnoj ugrozoj aresta. V 1945-m godu vse izmenilos, okovy fashizma pali. Jaspers dumal, chto teper vse, kto sotrudnichal s rezhimom, otpravjatsja na svalku istorii, na kotoroj on provel dolgikh vosem let, no pridja v universitet, on vstretil tekh zhe ljudej, kto organizoval na nego travlju. Kazalos, vse zabyli o proshlom. Uchenyj ne smog perezhit etogo pozora, on prokljal Germaniju i uekhal iz strany. Nikogda bolshe on ne stupal na nemetskuju zemlju, a itogom ego razocharovanija stala glavnaja rabota filosofa: "Vopros o vinovnosti", v etom esse on vpervye obosnoval i sformuliroval ponjatie "kollektivnoj viny".
