In Search of a Shared Expression
Classical Music in Weimar Germany
This book presents a set of case studies examining commentary by conservative music critics in response to musicological causes célèbres or concerns. Its stated goal is to complicate the longstanding historiographical assumption that conservative or traditional preferences in art music corresponded with conservative politics—essentially, that these Weimar traditionalists carried water for Nazi cultural policy. Fay acknowledges that musicology, mu…
Citizen of the Staatsoper
Conductor Erich Kleiber was born in Vienna, made his reputation in Berlin, fled Nazism for Latin America, and tried briefly to return to postwar East Berlin before dying in 1956. His life illustrates the wide diversity in mid-century migratory stories. For so many of Kleiber's fellow migrants, flight disrupted established structures, contexts and networks. More recently, scholars have emphasized refugees' creative self-reinvention. Kleiber's stor…

The Literary Organ of Politics
Tomáš Masaryk, the founder and first president (1918-1935) of interwar Czechoslovakia, devoted considerable time to founding, tracking, and attempting to take over newspapers and journals. In this article, Andrea Orzoff argues that journalism possessed central importance in interwar Czechoslovak political culture. Every party had its own press apparatus, making newsrooms into logical extensions of the usual arenas of political contention. But esp…
Prague PEN and Central European Cultural Nationalism, 1924–1935
In “Our Guests and Ourselves,” an article written in 1924 for the Prague daily newspaper Lidové noviny , Czech playwright and novelist Karel clarified for his readers the failings in Czech habits of sociability, and the unfortunate consequences of those habits for the new Czechoslovak nation. Each nationality in Prague, and each political grouping within the nationalities, tended to socialize in different clubs and cafes. The Czechs preferred to …
