Content:
Spanning aesthetics, cultural studies, intellectual history, and political theory, this volume unpacks the significance of the shadow agent known as 'the masses' during a critical period of European history. It shows how, between 1918 and 1933, the masses became a decisive preoccupation of European culture, fuelling both modernist movements in art, literature, architecture, theatre, and cinema, as well as the rise of communism and fascism and experiments in radical democracy.
