The Search for Normality

The author follows the debates beyond the unexpected unification of the country in 1989/90 and analyses the most recent trends in German historiography, hoping that it doesn't return to the stifling homogeneity that characterized it before the 1960s.

The Origins of the First World War

  • Type: Book

  • Publisher: Routledge

The seminal event of the 20th century, the origins of the First World War have always been difficult to establish and have aroused deep controversy. Annika Mombauer tracks the impassioned debates as they developed at critical points through the twentieth century. The book focuses on the controversy itself, rather than the specific events leading up to the war. Emotive and emotional from the very beginning of the conflict, the debate and the passions aroused in response to such issues as the ‘war-guilt paragraph’ of the treaty of Versailles, are set in the context of the times in which they were proposed. Similarly, the argument has been fuelled by concerns over the sacrifices that were made and the casualities that were suffered. Were they really justified?

War Stories

Moeller conveys the complicated story of how West Germans recast the past after the Second World War. He demonstrates the 'selective remembering' that took place among West Germans during the postwar years: in particular, they remembered crimes committed against Germans.

Die Joyce-Rezeption in der deutschsprachigen Erzählliteratur nach 1945

Kein englischsprachiger Roman hat die deutschsprachige Prosa des 20. Jahrhunderts in ähnlich intensivem Maße beeinflusst wie der Ulysses des Iren James Joyce. Nach der Epochenzäsur des Zweiten Weltkriegs lassen sich Autoren wie Wolfgang Koeppen, Arno Schmidt, Uwe Johnson und Wolfgang Hildesheimer von der Wieder- und Neuentdeckung der internationalen Moderne inspirieren. Die Wege und Spuren des Einflusses nachzuzeichnen und die spezifischen Voraussetzungen und Positionen der behandelten Autoren herauszuarbeiten, ist das Ziel dieser Studie.

Die 68er und die Medizin

English summary: The 1968 student movement has hitherto almost always been considered as a whole, with the philosophical faculties at the fore. But how did the revolt take place in the medical faculty? What were the consequences of the protest of a new generation of medical practitioners for medicine? The historian Ralf Forsbach examines these questions among other things with a view to changes in the physician-patient relationship, a new approach to sexuality and the body and the consumption of hard drugs. The young medical critics rejected the affected behaviour of demi-gods in white coats; they sought to reform psychiatry. Their specific endeavours to make changes were accompanied by a ne...
