内容説明
'A haunting evocation of the revolution that Hitler destroyed and a tragic glimpse of the German genius' - "Publishers Weekly". 'This scrapbook of the twenties is a mindblower - not only in providing a feel for the twenties but for the horror coming fast on its heels' - "American Libraries". 'A thorough, anecdotal and lovingly detailed survey in words and pictures of [Berlin's] golden years under the Weimar Republic. All aspects of the city's life are covered, not only the philosophers, painters, musicians Bauhaus architects who gave it special distinction but [also] the social unrest, the nightmare inflation, the glittering cabarets and low bars, the prostitutes, drug addicts and petty criminals who have a special bearing on the work of Brecht' - "Washington Post Book World".In 1936, at the age of eighteen, Wolf Von Eckardt and his mother and sister fled Berlin and came to New York. With Sander L. Gilman, he as brought into focus, through words and pictures, an uneasy era that divided two great catastrophes. Von Eckardt, formerly architecture critic for the "Washington Post", is the author of "The Challenge of Megalopolis".
Gilman, Goldwin Smith Professor of Humane Studies at Cornell University, has written a new preface for this "Bison Book" edition of Bertolt Brecht's "Berlin". His books include "Inscribing the Other" (Nebraska, 1991).
