With both sensitivity and precision, Smith illuminates the complexities of Mammen’s ‘inner emigration’—the fine lines between non-conformism and dissent, camouflage and accommodation—followed by the risks and possibilities of post-war culture in Berlin. * Frederic J. Schwartz, Emeritus Professor of History of Art and Architecture, University College London, UK *\u003cbr\u003eBeautifully illustrated and compulsively readable, \u003ci\u003eJeanne Mammen: Art Between Resistance and Conformity in Germany, 1916–1950\u003c\/i\u003e explores the dramatic life and multifaceted work of one of Europe’s most innovative artists. Moving beyond the dazzling “Glitter and Doom” of Mammen’s Weimar-era illustrations, Camilla Smith thematizes Mammen as an observer, artist, and translator, a woman alive to the possibilities of her age who lived through two world wars and negotiated her own inner immigration under the Nazi dictatorship. The is a thrilling new examination of an essential modernist artist whose significance has too long escaped scrutiny. * Elizabeth Otto, Professor of Modern \u0026amp; Contemporary Art History, University at Buffalo (SUNY), USA *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations  List of Abbreviations Acknowledgments Introduction  Chapter 1: Forging a Career  Chapter 2: Berlin 1947 – Going Solo  Chapter 3: National Socialism and Private Dissent  Chapter 4: Propaganda, War and the Home Front    Chapter 5: Beginning Again: Post-War Berlin  Chapter 6: Bathtubs and Jellyfish: Mammen and Post-War Cabaret   Conclusion  Epilogue Notes Bibliography  Appendices","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49407523586391,"sku":"9781350239388","price":85.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781350239388.jpg?v=1730499662","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/jeanne-mammen-9781350239388","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
