The Afterlife of Moses: Exile, Democracy, Renewal
Laurent Martin (dir.), Les Censures dans le monde: XIXe-XXIe siècle
This volume presents the papers delivered at a conference held in Paris in February 2014. Fourteen of the twenty-five essays deal with censorship in Europe, the rest with countries in North and South America, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The genres and media discussed include literature, journalism, photojournalism, political caricature, educational textbooks, theater, film, and music. Given the geographical, chronological, and generic brea…
Döblins Moderne
Alfred Döblin’s oeuvre may be regarded as an »ideal-type« of modernism, inasmuch as it combines a modernist aesthetic with a critical appreciation of social and technological modernity. Characteristics of this attitude include: the displacement of the autonomous, humanistic self in favor of an individualism sustained by collective forces; a rejection of traditional, elitist literature in favor of popular idioms and the mass media; and a recogniti…
Britain and the Weimar Republic: The History of a Cultural Relationship, by Colin Storer
The first thing which strikes the reader of this volume is its employment of false advertising. The dust-jacket presents a photograph of W.H. Auden, Christopher Isherwood and Stephen Spender—so the reader naturally assumes that this work deals (yet again) with that group. But as early as page 5, we learn that those are precisely the people who are not to be the focus of this book. Since Colin Storer believes (correctly) that ‘Isherwood’s Berlin h…

Berlin Cabaret
Method? What Method? Confessions of a Failed Structuralist
By requesting that I provide reflections on [my] own methods of cultural historical the organizers of this conference have posed a very embarrassing question. My work does not fit neatly into any of the major trends in cultural or intellectual history of the past thirty years, such as social history of ideas, historical anthropology, or linguistic turn. Nor does it lend itself to any sui generis form of systematization. Thus I hardly could sugges…
Berlin Cabaret
Fads and fashions, sexual mores, and political ideologies—all were subject to satire and parody on the cabaret stage. This book follows the changing treatment of these themes, and the fate of cabaret itself, through the most turbulent decades of German history

Contemporary Literary Theory: From Deconstruction Back to History
Various attempts have been made to bring to the attention of a wider historical audience the debates that have taken place among intellectual historians over the past decade. Such summaries may soon be in need of some updating. Insofar as many of these discussions have been inspired by developments among our colleagues in departments of literature, it is worth noting that those scholars likewise have engaged in heated exchanges. Since those debat…

Art and Mammon in Wilhelmine Germany: The Case of Frank Wedekind
Of all of the cultural figures of fin de siècle Germany, the dramatist Frank Wedekind (1864–1918) is one of the hardest to comprehend. He does not fit easily into standard literary categories. His concern with sexuality causes some scholars to classify him with Jugendstil or Dekadenz ; his grotesque caricatures, frenetic dialogue, and occasionally surreal imagery make others view him as a protoexpressionist; and his biting criticism of bourgeois …
