Todd H. Weir. Secularism and Religion in Nineteenth-Century Germany
Todd H. Weir’s study begins with a treatment of the Catholic priest Johannes Ronge, who founded the “German Catholics” in the mid-1840s with his “Christian rationalist” critique of Christian orthodoxy. Based in the Silesian city of Breslau (today Wrocław), Ronge organized this schismatic group by rejecting the authority of Rome for which he was then excommunicated. Many Protestants welcomed the movement, viewing it as the coming of a new nineteen…
Berlin Coquette
Suzanne Smith’s Berlin Coquette is a model of cultural history. Spanning the Wilhelmine and Weimar periods, Smith’s monograph skilfully juxtaposes the assessments of female prostitution made by feminists, sexologists, sex reformers and cultural critics with the visual and textual representations found in a range of popular media, including theatre, film and literature. Her use of Coquette is inspired. Defined as a ‘loose’, lustful or vain woman, …

Politik des Eros
The antisemite and sometime homosexual rights activist Hans Blüher (1888–1955) would offer a stimulating subject—in equal parts fascinating conundrum and unnerving ideologue—for any biographer. Claudia Bruns's study harnesses biography for the grander purpose of an intellectual and cultural history of the Männerbund, which Blüher's life and work embody. As an early member of the original Wandervogel movement, organized in the Berlin suburb of Ste…
Banned in Berlin

The volume is not only a great introduction to the media and cultural production of Imperial Germany, but also a thoughtful primer on the general significance of censorship. Of course, Stark's subject is specifically German censorship, but his arguments contribute more broadly to debates about the politics and culture of the Empire. Although Stark never ment…

Reforming Interregional Commerce
Wares are consigned to the Leipzig merchants year round from all corners of Europe and then sold during the trade fairs. Leipzig has three fairs: the first begins the Monday after New Year's and lasts two weeks counting the last week for the settling of accounts ( Zahlwoche ); the spring fair ( Jubilate ) begins the third Sunday after Easter and runs a total of three weeks; while the autumn fair ( Michaelis ), likewise three weeks long, begins th…
