About this book

This volume examines a selection of popular books on good language and etiquette in 20th-century Germany. It questions whether the different political systems and ideologies that caused upheaval in Germany from the early 1920s to the mid-60s had a formative influence on conceptions of language and social skills. This unusual approach addresses a hitherto neglected area of research and makes an important contribution towards understanding the function of language in 20th-century Germany.
