The failure of Germany's first republic after World War I has
aroused several decades of concentrated study. Synthesizing much of
that study, this historical dictionary aims to enhance an
understanding of the Weimar Republic. It includes entries on
individuals as diverse as Bertolt Brecht, Adolf Hitler, the
physicist Lise Meitner and the film director Georg W. Pabst. There
are also entries defining such events as the Beerhall Putsch and
the French occupation of the Ruhr; various organizations and
institutions, such as the Frankfurt School; the complex array of
political parties; and treatment and agreements, such as the
Locarno Treaties of 1925 and the 1929 Young Plan. Arranged as an A
to Z reference source for the study of modern German history, the
dictionary gives substance to cultural terms (such as Dada), to
film and music, and to concepts such as anti-semitism and justice,
deemed vital to an understanding of the period. All entries
conclude with bibliographic references.
