Directed by Robert Siodmak and Edgar G. Ulmer, and with a script by Billy Wilder, People on Sunday (Menschen am Sonntag) (1930) is now widely recognised as a landmark of Weimar cinema, which influenced Italian Neorealism and the New Wave cinemas of the 1960s, and set the template for ‘indie’ filmmaking as we now know it. This is the first study in English of this multi-faceted film, which not only launched the careers of renowned filmmakers, but which continues to influence contemporary culture, with references to it in popular television (Babylon Berlin), a playful remake, and a new score by experimental pop group Múm. Jon Hughes' study places the film in its historical context – Berlin in the Weimar Republic – and untangles the fascinating story of the making of People on Sunday, drawing on new archival research to challenge some of the misconceptions that surround it. Hughes provides fresh interpretations of the film’s depiction of space and its play with contemporary gender and sexual politics, and situates it within both Weimar cinema and the later output of the filmmakers.

Dieses Buch ist die erste umfassende Studie über den deutschen Boxer Max Schmeling (1905-2005) als Nationalheld und Repräsentationsfigur in Deutschland zwischen den 1920er Jahren und der Gegenwart. Es untersucht die komplexen Beziehungen zwischen Sport, Kultur, Politik und nationaler Identität und stützt sich dabei auf ein Jahrhundert von Journalismus, Film, bildender Kunst, Lebensberichten und Belletristik. Detaillierte Kapitel analysieren Schmelings Aufstieg zur Ikone in der Weimarer Republik, seine Verbindung zu Amerika, seinen Prominentenstatus im Dritten Reich und seine Rivalität mit Joe Louis als Mittelpunkt eines außergewöhnlichen propagandistischen und ideologischen Wettstreits. Das Buch untersucht auch, wie Schmelings geschäftlicher Erfolg in der Nachkriegszeit ihn mit der Kultur der "Stunde Null" in der Ära des "Wirtschaftswunders" in Verbindung brachte und wie er später als "guter Deutscher" und moralisches Beispiel für eine Nachkriegsgeneration von Deutschen, die entschlossen waren, die Vergangenheit zu "bewältigen", in Anspruch genommen wurde. Das Buch richtet sich an Leser, die sich für die Geschichte des Sports und des Boxens, für Sportdiskurse und politische Kultur sowie für Fragen der nationalen Identität in der modernen deutschen Geschichte interessieren.

This book presents the first in-depth study of the German boxer Max Schmeling (1905-2005) as a national hero and representative figure in Germany between the 1920s and the present day. It explores the complex relationship between sport, culture, politics and national identity and draws on a century of journalism, film, visual art, life writing and fiction. Detailed chapters analyse Schmeling’s emergence as an icon in the Weimar Republic, his association with America, his celebrity status in the Third Reich, and his rivalry with Joe Louis as a focus for an extraordinary propaganda and ideological contest. The book also examines how Schmeling’s post-war success in business associated him with the culture of the ‘zero hour’ nation in the era of ‘economic miracle’, and how he was later claimed as ‘good German’ and moral example for a post-war generation of Germans determined to ‘come to terms’ with the past. This book will appeal to readers with an interest in the history and representation of sport and boxing, in sports discourse and political culture, and in questions of national identity in modern German history.
