Beskrivning
The Weimar era in Germany is often characterized as a time of significant change. Such periods of rupture transform the way people envision the past, present, and future. This book traces the conceptions of time and history in the Germany of the early 20th century. By focusing on both the discourse and practices of the youth movement, the author shows how it reinterpreted and revived the past to overthrow the premises of modern historical thought. In so doing, this book provides insight into the social implications of the ideological de-historicization of the past.

Recensioner i media

“With The Rhythm of Eternity Robert-Jan Adriaansen has written a fascinating book. [He] sheds new light on the middle-class youth movement, making visible the emergence of a new discussion about the consequences of alternative notions of time for a modern democratic society that perhaps contributes to a deeper understanding of the youth movement than the familiar and to be expected discussions along familiar political divisions. The book deserves a broad readership that is also interested in contemporary-historical issues.” Mitteilungen des Archivs der Arbeiterjugendbewegung“…an important book for German history and for historical theory more generally, and Adriaansen’s points about reimagining modernity (and its historicist underpinnings) and the many experiments therewith in the 1920s make this book a worthy addition to the graduate seminar syllabus and the libraries of those interested in historical consciousness.” Germany History
