De Leidse hoogleraar theoretische fysica Paul Ehrenfest (1880-1933) was goed bevriend met Niels Bohr en Albert Einstein. In tegenstelling tot zijn beroemde tijdgenoten lag zijn kracht niet bij het doen van grote ontdekkingen. Wel had hij een uitzonderlijk talent voor het verhelderen van complexe vraagstukken in de fysica. Het leven en werk van Ehrenfest bieden een intrigerend perspectief op de manier waarop wetenschappers uit dat tijdsgewricht hun weg probeerden te vinden in een periode van roerige wetenschappelijke, maatschappelijke en politieke ontwikkelingen. Behalve dat Ehrenfest een bloei

Kaum ein Staatsmann Frankreichs hat bereits zu Lebzeiten so kontroverse Einschätzungen hervorgerufen oder ein vergleichbares Maß an Anfeindungen selbst aus dem eigenen Lager auf sich gezogen wie Paul Reynaud. Sein glückloses Agieren als Ministerpräsident und die Umstände seines Rücktritts im Frühsommer 1940 verknüpfen seinen Namen zudem mit einem Abschnitt der französischen Zeitgeschichte, der das kollektive Gedächtnis des Landes traumatisch belastet hat. Die katastrophale militärische Niederlage und die anschließende Selbstpreisgabe der parlamentarischen Demokratie überschatten so zu Unrecht das politische Lebenswerk eines Mannes, der lange als einer der innovativsten und mutigsten Politiker Frankreichs aufgetreten war. Die Untersuchung folgt ihrem Protagonisten auf wichtige Reflexions- und Handlungsfelder und erarbeitet ein Politikerprofil, das in vielem als paradigmatisch für die noch über den Zweiten Weltkrieg hinaus parteigeschichtlich kaum faßbare rechte Mitte Frankreichs gelten kann. Paul Reynaud was one of the few French statesmen whose activities were controversial even while he was still alive. His unfortunate term as Prime Minister and the circumstances of his abduction 1940 will forever link him to the issue of the German occupation of France, a situation which has left a deep impact in the French collective consciousness. Grüner works to show the unknown facets of Reynauds biography and personality and proves that he was one of the most innovative politicians of his time.

Shirakaba and Japanese Modernism examines the most significant Japanese art and literary magazine of the early twentieth century, Shirakaba (White Birch, 1910–1923). In this volume Erin Schoneveld explores the fluid relationship that existed between different types of modern visual media, exhibition formats, and artistic practices embraced by the Shirakaba-ha (White Birch Society). Schoneveld provides a new comparative framework for understanding how the avant-garde pursuit of individuality during Japan’s Taishō period stood in opposition to state-sponsored modernism and how this played out in the emerging media of art magazines. This book analyzes key moments in modern Japanese art and intellectual history by focusing on the artists most closely affiliated with Shirakaba , including Takamura Kōtarō, Umehara Ryūzaburō, and Kishida Ryūsei, who selectively engaged with and transformed modernist idioms of individualism and self-expression to create a new artistic style that gave visual form to their own subjective reality. Drawing upon archival research that includes numerous articles, images, and exhibitions reviews from Shirakaba , as well as a complete translation of Yanagi Sōetsu’s seminal essay, “The Revolutionary Artist” ( Kakumei no gaka ), Schoneveld demonstrates that, contrary to the received narrative that posits Japanese modernism as merely derivative, the debate around modernism among Japan’s early avant-garde was lively, contested, and self-reflexive.
