Research Abstract |
1.(Berliner Literature as a symbol of urban-humanlife) Our Studies ranged extensively over many cultural phenomena in the mass-society. The counterculture in the big cities (e.g. cabarets in Berlin affected the trend of their mass-culture and was opposed to the bourgeoisie. 2.(Jung's psychology) Sciences got into the unconsciously sphere of human being. While the recognition of the natural sciences served as a stimulus to compose the new urban-cultures, the interest in irrationality that the natural sciences couldn't solve became higher and stronger. 3.(Bauhaus and modernism) The technological advances with the naturalscientific recognitions demanded new designs and functions that were needed for the new humanlife in the popularized period. The aesthetic sense was identical to the function. 4.(Kafka and Zionism) The fundamental problems of the human-mind or -spirit appeared in the avant-garde arts and was concerned subtly in the problems of Jewish. Assimilated Jewish was deprived their places to live between the anti-Jewish nationalism and Zionism. This problem was more serious in Nazism.
