Más información sobre el libro

Gina Kaus (1893-1985), a prominent German author of the 1920s and 1930s, gained attention not only for her literary contributions but also for her romantic relationships with notable men. Her extensive body of work includes bestselling novels, dramas, short stories, journalism, reviews, and articles on educational and psychological topics. This monograph provides a comprehensive overview of her diverse oeuvre, which reflects and connects significant themes of the German Weimar Republic and the Austrian First Republic. Kaus addresses contemporary issues such as the decline of monetary and moral values, evolving gender roles, new marriage forms, and the objectification of love. Influenced by Alfred Adler's individual psychology, which was prominent in 1920s Vienna, she explores psychological and pedagogical questions while situating her poetic reflections within the framework of New Objectivity.
