Carpe Mundum analyzes German Youth culture during the Weimar
Republic (1918-1933). Each chapter addresses a distinct topic: sex
educational materials for young people, the language of the
censorship debates, novels dealing with war, historical narration,
magazines, popular science and science fiction, radio, and sports.
Together the themes illustrate the influence of nineteenth-century
holistic thinking in popular culture in early twentieth-century
Germany. Public policies and institutions governing German youth
culture during the Weimar Republic, including education and social
welfare, evince spiritual underpinnings of Naturphilosophie - a
movement which promoted the unity of all things. As cultural
modernity in Germany enabled young people greater participation in
shaping their culture, elements of a modernity of yough emerged as
distinct from that of the adult world and its ideologically laden
system of values. The essence of youthful modernity in Germany as
evident most clearly in popular magazines, radio, and sports rests
primarily on spontaneity, ingenuity and camaraderie.
