Cool Conduct : The Culture of Distance in Weimar Germany PDF
by Helmut Lethen
Part of the Weimar and Now: German Cultural Criticism series
Description
Cool Conduct is an elegant interpretation of attitudes and mentalities that informed the Weimar Republic by a scholar well known for his profound knowledge of this period. Helmut Lethen writes of "cool conduct" as a cultivated antidote to the heated atmosphere of post-World War I Germany, as a way of burying shame and animosity that might otherwise make social contact impossible.
