Description

In past centuries British attitudes toward German culture oscillated between hostility and indifference. For a brief period of 20 years between the two World Wars, this pattern changed dramatically, with a flood of German books in translation threatening to engulf the British book market and triggering violently emotional reactions in the literary pages of the popular press. Reviewers of these books are shown here to have harbored a deep amibivalence toward an alien German culture. The reviews of these years reveal a dialectical tug of war between the established Hun stereotype of Germany and a dual complex and contradicting image of the redeeming barbarian promising rebirth. Review ." . .Halkin's book is the work of a mature scholar that could be pioneering in its multiple approach to Rezeptiongeschichte for historical purposes. Her book is not only illuminating, but a pleasure to read."-Carl E. Schorske Professor Emeritus of History Princeton University About the Author Ariela Halkin was born in Israel and educated in a British boarding school. She received her BA degree in English and French literature at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. She received her MA and PhD degrees in Western European history from Tel Aviv University.
