About this book
The study indicates the contribution made by literature in problematizing the concept of work in the face of factual discontinuities in working life. Vice versa, we see how the field of culture in the Weimar Republic was enriched by the discourse on work. Alongside literary texts, the study also examines films, a radio play, volumes of photographs, and articles on social and cultural history. In methodological terms, the book dovetails literary analysis (informed by social history) with approaches from fields as wide-ranging as social psychology, imagology, media history, and discourse analysis, and regards them from the broader perspective of cultural studies.
Reviews
"Der Band ist (auch durch das Register) ein außerordentlich nützliches Kompendium zum Thema und auch zur Literatur der Weimarer Republik insgesamt."
Walter Fähnders in: Archiv für die Geschichte des Widerstandes und der Arbeit 18/2008
