This book examines the discourse on 'primitive thinking' in early
twentieth century Germany. It explores texts from the social
sciences, writings on art and language and - most centrally -
literary works by Robert Musil, Walter Benjamin, Gottfried Benn and
Robert Muller, focusing on three figurations of alterity prominent
in European primitivism: indigenous cultures, children, and the
mentally ill.
