I had the sense too of Gay wrg to the USA sayg 'this is me and my cultural hterland, this is where I am g om, read and weep oh ye philist! ', but perhaps that is me and my over active key pots are then that this is a short book (152 pag pl a 23 page history of the Republic as an appendix) which draws attentn to Gay's idsyncrasi - a lengthy six or seven pag given over to The Magic Mounta and his theme -The Outsir as Insir a visn of the Weimar republic as domated by forc and perspectiv which had been prent Imperial Germany but which had then been on the peripheri, as you n image such circumstanc the big story is the centre ground strikg back, and the centre ground this se was anti-Republin, Monarchist, Authorarian and generally polilly right-wg (particularly noticeable he pots out among the judiciary who gave light sentenc to polil crimals om the polil Right, but heavy on to those om the polil Left) early years were years of civil war, then 1929 the wall street crash brought down such polil stabily as there had been (a revolvg door of temperamental aln ernments which mostly managed to last about a year or so before they need to be broken apart and reassembled like buildg blocks).

For Gay the artistic movements of the tim mirrored the polil velopments as illtrated by the brief life of the Bhs (though gets ls space than The Magic Mounta, only Thomas Mann gets a reasonable amount of space - though other cultural figur are name checked, this is a book that might help build up the sense of the cultural amework of the Weimar era but which do not fill the tails, he was bt I thought on lerary wrers who wh the exceptn of Thomas Mann he sums up quickly and mov on, generally a few sharp words, a b tty, but not pletely unfair (Hermann Hse he scrib as wrg about puberty wh "a psychoanalytil twist" (p.

Peter Gay’s book is an extend say about this velopment.

Over the urse of a half-dozen chapters, he offers a perceptive analysis of German culture the 1920s, one that asss the shap took and how reflected the tumultuo events surroundg Gay scrib amounts to an explosn of cultural exploratn the aftermath of the mise of the German empire 1918.

Yet Gay mak clear that to thk of Weimar culture exclively terms of Exprsnism and the Bhs school is false, as he shows the equally important ntributn ma by nservative tellectuals who sought to e to terms wh Germany’s circumstanc their own works. In the short term their ntributns proved more relevant, as the rightward turn of German youth the early 1930s that Gay scrib fueled the rapid growth of the Nazi-led right, the triumph of which brought an end to the cultural experimentatn of the Weimar one of the 20th century’s foremost cultural historians Gay left behd an imprsive body of sightful works. As a refugee om Nazi Germany, Gay was a personal wns to the aftermath of the era he scrib, one that giv his book an almost elegiac tone s scriptn of a culture doomed to extctn.
