Inhaltsangabe
The period of almost half a century from 1871 to 1919 was one of huge upheaval, restlessness and change in Germany. Situated at the crossroads of history and geography, the country under Bismarck was struggling to preserve the predominance of Prussia and its traditional ruling elites, whilst also recognising the importance of modernisation. By the turn of the century Germany had overtaken Britain as the workshop of the world in industry, science, ideas and the arts, with enormous investments being made in these areas. Many people lost or swapped their traditional livelihoods, moved from the countryside to the cities, and embarked on a road to a prosperity unparalleled in Europe. Then in 1914 came the outbreak of the First World war, unleashing one of the greatest catastrophes of the twentieth century. This is a narrative which combines high politics, the history of daily life in Germany during this period and portraits of key figures such as Bismarck, Wilhelm II, Walter Rathenau. It is also an account of the huge revolutions which took place in Germany in industry, the arts and science.It will examine the reasons why the First World War occurred, and, whilst trying to understand what was specifically German about this period of German history, will at the same time not lose sight of the fact that what happened in Germany was part of a sequence of radical changes which were going on more widely in Europe.
