Description

Babbitts and Bohemians from the Great War to the Great Depression offers a nuanced exploration of the 1920s, revealing a decade defined by stark contrasts between conformity and cultural rebellion. Elizabeth Stevenson examines how mainstream America, particularly in communities like Main Street and Middletown, embraced conventional values and political conformity, whilst simultaneously bohemians in Greenwich Village and expatriates in Paris rejected these same ideals with fierce contempt. This Routledge publication captures the true complexity of the era, moving beyond mythologised versions to show how ordinary citizens pursued the prosperity of the period alongside artistic and intellectual dissenters who questioned every aspect of contemporary society. The book traces the cultural tensions that defined this transformative decade between the post-war period and the Great Depression, providing readers with essential context for understanding 1920s American identity, social movements, and the clash between traditional and modern values.

Key Features

Elizabeth Stevenson's analysis contrasts Main Street conformity with bohemian resistance, revealing the dual nature of 1920s American society.

Explores Greenwich Village culture and Parisian expatriate communities to demonstrate how artistic dissenters challenged mainstream values.

Examines the relationship between post-war recovery, economic prosperity, and emerging cultural revolt during this transformative decade.

Published by Routledge, offering scholarly perspective on the complex social dynamics between the Great War and Great Depression eras.
