I would like to know more about the years 1918–1929. Can you anons recommend any books on the subject?
>>24930369That author has another The Seven Addictions and Five Professions of Anita Berber Weimar Culture by Peter GayChristopher Isherwood and a lot of gay Americans were hanging around writing travelogues like your book mentions, so if you don't mind short stories from outsiders who like the depressed economy v the dollar, Isherwood
>>24930369What got you interested in Weimar culture? Truth be told, I always found it a bit shallow from afar, even if I love the films from that period, but I'm keen on getting convinced otherwise by a genuinely curious person
I'd kill to live in the Weimar. Degeneracy with nothing but whites around? Yes, please.
>>24930369It's fiction but Berlin Alexanderplatz gives a good look into the culture and way of life of Weimar Germany.>>24930581>Degeneracy with nothing but whites aroundWhat about all the jews?
>>24930591>What about all the jews?They look white and they are supplying the degeneracy so obviously I'm fine with them being there.
>>24930577Not OP but a lot of weird liberalism sprang up in the Weimar. An empire had basically collapsed around them, briefly after unifying with other small nations with equally imperial rulers. The economy is absolute shit and in so much debt that modern Greece would feel guilty about the billThere's all kind of political agitators and people sick to death of political agitation, and a wealth of new religious and scientific movements that 60s San Francisco would find too woowoo. It's a time when you have both nazis and commies fighting naked over the best yoga spot to sun your balls now they read a pamphlet about chakras, drug research and medical clinics which are going off book now stitching people back from the war is drying up, and a tourist industry which relies on it being cheaper than Thailand with more sex workers because everything else is gone from the warBasically take every bad idea California has had since the Spanish got there and condense it from conquistador to techbro ketamine down into about a decade and a half
unfortunately, many books from that period are no longer available.
