    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School The College of Arts and Architecture FROM ACTIVISM TO KIETISM: MODERIST SPACES I HUGARIA ART, 1918-1930 BUDAPEST – VIEA – BERLI A Dissertation in Art History by Edit Tóth © 2010 Edit Tóth Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2010 The dissertation of Edit Tóth was reviewed and approved* by the following: Nancy Locke Associate Professor of Art History Dissertation Adviser Chair of Committee Sarah K. Rich Associate Professor of Art History Craig Zabel Head of the Department of Art History Michael Bernhard Associate Professor of Political Science *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT From Activism to Kinetism: Modernist Spaces in Hungarian Art, 1918-1930. Budapest – Vienna – Berlin investigates modernist art created in Central Europe of that period, as it responded to the shock effects of modernity. In this endeavor it takes artists directly or indirectly associated with the MA (“Today,” 1916-1925) Hungarian artistic and literary circle and periodical as paradigmatic of this response. From the loose association of artists and literary men, connected more by their ideas than by a distinct style, I single out works by Lajos Kassák – writer, poet, artist, editor, and the main mover and guiding star of MA , – the painter Sándor Bortnyik, the polymath László Moholy- Nagy, and the designer Marcel Breuer. This exclusive selection is based on a particular agenda. First, it considers how the failure of a revolutionary reorganization of society during the Hungarian Soviet Republic (April 23 – August 1, 1919) at the end of World War I prompted the Hungarian Activists to reassess their lofty political ideals in exile and make compromises if they wanted to remain in the vanguard of modernity.

    James Bernauer, S.J. Boston College From European Anti-Jesuitism to German Anti-Jewishness: A Tale of Two Texts “Jews and Jesuits will move heaven and hell against you.” --Kurt Lüdecke, in conversation with Adolf Hitleri A Presentation at the Conference “Honoring Stanislaw Musial” Jagiellonian University, Krakow, Poland (March 5, 2009) The current intense debate about the significance of “political religion” as a mode of analyzing fascism leads us to the core of the crisis in understanding the Holocaust.ii Saul Friedländer has written of an “historian‟s paralysis” that “arises from the simultaneity and the interaction of entirely heterogeneous phenomena: messianic fanaticism and bureaucratic structures, pathological impulses and administrative decrees, archaic attitudes within an advanced industrial society.”iii Despite the conflicting voices in the discussion of political religion, the debate does acknowledge two relevant facts: the obvious intermingling in Nazism of religious and secular phenomena; secondly, the underestimated role exercised by Munich Catholicism in the early life of the Nazi party.iv My essay is an effort to illumine one thread in this complex territory of political religion and Nazism and my title conveys its hypotheses. First, that the centuries long polemic against the Roman Catholic religious order the Jesuits, namely, its fabrication of the Jesuit image as cynical corrupter of Christianity and European culture, provided an important template for the Nazi imagining of Jewry after its emancipation.v This claim will be exhibited in a consideration of two historically influential texts: the Monita 1 secreta which demonized the Jesuits and the Protocols of the Sages of Zion which diabolized the Jews.vi In the light of this examination, I shall claim that an intermingled rhetoric of Jesuit and Jewish wills to power operated in the imagination of some within the Nazi leadership, the most important of whom was Adolf Hitler himself.

  • Prinz Max Von Baden Und Houston Steward Chamberlain. Aus Dem
    121 Dieser Quellenfund führt zwei historische Persönlichkeiten zusammen, die man gewöhnlich nicht miteinander in Verbindung bringt: Prinz Max von Baden und Houston Steward Chamberlain, den scheinbar liberalen Prinzen, der im Herbst 1918 den Ersten Weltkrieg zu beenden half, und den Protagonisten eines radikalen Antisemitismus', der auch zu Hitlers Ideengeber wurde. Die Korrespondenz dieser beiden unterschiedlichen Figuren eröffnet viele neue Einsichten: in einem ganz neuen Licht erscheint nicht nur der Prinz; deutlich wird auch, welch große Wirkung die Schriften Chamberlains hatten. Karina Urbach/Bernd Buchner Prinz Max von Baden und Houston Stewart Chamberlain Aus dem Briefwechsel 1909-1919 „Wie der Prinz Max steht, weiß keiner", stellte der sozialdemokratische Parteifüh­ rer Friedrich Ebert gegen Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs resigniert fest1. Bis heute hat sich an dieser Einschätzung wenig geändert. Das ist insofern erstaunlich, als die fünfwöchige Reichskanzlerschaft des badischen Prinzen von Anfang Oktober bis zum 9. November 1918 - mithin die Zeit zwischen Waffenstillstandsangebot und Kriegsende, zwischen Parlamentarisierung und Novemberrevolution - zu den entscheidenden Wendepunkten in der neueren deutschen Geschichte gerechnet wird. Die Regierung des Prinzen ist zwar in den 1960er Jahren von Erich Matthias und Rudolf Morsey ausführlich dokumentiert und kommentiert worden2, doch Max selbst blieb stets eine blasse historische Figur. War er der von Golo Mann hagiographisch gefeierte deutsche Whig3, ein typisch süddeutsch­ legerer Grandseigneur,

Germans as much as the Germans elevated Hitler HITLER AND NAZISM • Core of Hitler’s political ideas: racism, anti-Semitism, ultranationalism • Fought in WWI, believed Jews were reason why Germany lost • After WWI, Hitler joined a right-wing ultranationalist party, the German Worker’s Party – Hitler soon controlled the party; renamed to National Socialist German Worker’s Party, or Nazi Party – Nazi Party had its own militia • Hitler writes Mein Kampf from prison after attempting to seize power of German gov’t “If we pass all the causes of the German collapse in review, the ultimate and most decisive remains the failure to recognize the racial problem and especially the Jewish menace.” Protocols of the Elders of Zion “To what an extent the whole existence of this people is based on a continuous lie is shown incomparably by the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, so infinitely hated by the Jews. They are based on a forgery, the Frankfurter Zeitung moans and screams once every week: the best proof that they are authentic ... For once this book has become the common property of a people, the Jewish menace may be considered as broken.” “All propaganda must be popular and its intellectual level must be adjusted to the most limited intelligence among those it is addressed to. Consequently, the greater the mass it is intended to reach, the lower its purely intellectual level will have to be. But if, as in propaganda for sticking out a war, the aim is to influence a whole people, we must avoid excessive intellectual demands on our public, and too much caution cannot be extended in this direction…” “…The receptivity of the great masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous.

The Yale Journal of Criticism 9.1 (1996) 57-61 Access provided by Det Kongelige Bibliotek Access provided by Det Kongelige Bibliotek Chaplin Times Two Theodor W. Adorno Translated by John MacKay Translator's Introduction In his writings on contemporary culture, Theodor W. Adorno was inclined to treat laughter with suspicion, in particular the kind of laughter generated by popular film comedies and other products of the "culture industry." What received its comic comeuppance in such films, he claimed, was anything opposed to or unassimilable by the status quo; such mirth produced a false sense of liberation masking blind conformity to a cruel social order. In the Dialectic of Enlightenment he glumly observed: In the false society laughter is a disease which has attacked happiness and is drawing it into its worthless totality. To laugh at something is always to deride it, and the life which, according to Bergson, in laughter breaks through the barrier, is actually an invading barbaric life, self-assertion prepared to parade its liberation from any scruple when the social occasion arises. Such a laughing audience is a parody of humanity. Its members are monads, all dedicated to the pleasure of being ready for anything at the expense of everyone else. Their harmony is a caricature of solidarity. What is fiendish about this false laughter is that it is a compelling parody of the best, which is conciliatory.

Among the strategies he outlines for achieving this goal, Benjamin highlights the newspaper as the embodiment of that age’s conditions and a means of subverting bourgeois forms and consciousness. Benjamin fails to mention, however, that his friend Siegfried Kracauer had striven for years during his tenure as an editor of the Frankfurter Zeitung’s feuilleton section to effect precisely that end through his journalistic writing. Understanding the project Kracauer tried to achieve elucidates an often overlooked front in the struggle for the German conscience

  • The Nazi Narne Decrees of the Nineteen Thirties
    The Nazi N arne Decrees of the Nineteen Thirties ~~ ROBERT M. RENNICK I. Introduction NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS have been made by European countries in the past 150 years to ban the assumption by minority group members of names which would suggest their identity with the dominant national group. By far the most ambitious endeavor of this kind was undertaken by the Nazi government in Germany in its deliberate efforts to restrict the Jews of that country to Old Testament given names. This paper will consider the Nazi name decrees of the nineteen thirties as one of the measures by which certain aliens and national "undesirables" were to be distinguished from "true Aryans" in order to facilitate the discriminatory treat- ment to which the former were soon to be subjected. To appreciate the full implications of the Nazi name decrees with respect to German Jewry in the nineteen thirties, it is necessary to recall that the Jews of Europe (including Germany) since the Enlightenment were inclined to embrace the names, languages, and behavior characteristics of the countries in which they resided. Indeed, a frequent requirement for acceptance in a number of places in the nineteenth century was the assumption by aliens - Jews and others - of the appropriate names of their adopted countries. Thus, by the time of Hitler's rise to power, discounting the occasional overt discriminatory acts against them which paralleled those against their Gentile compatriots in the aftermath of the several revolutions of the first half of the nineteenth century, * Acknowledgements: The writer wishes to acknowledge the assistance of Dr.

The Nazis are staking everything on one card by ruthlessly mobilising all their resources. They have tried to put the German industrial machine and the available man-power totally at the disposal of their war production. All in One Boat? The new slogan was: "We sink or swim together."
