Henri Pirenne remarquait qu'entre la révolte esthétique des jeunes bourgeois et la poussée démocratique sous laquelle cédait le régime censitaire, il y eut en Belgique et à la fin du XIXe siècle "une de ces concordances inconscientes que l'histoire constate si souvent sans pouvoir les expliquer. On se refuse à croire que seul le hasard ait fait coïncider la révision de la Constitution avec les premières œuvres de Maeterlinck et de Verhaeren". Contrairement à d'autres pays - la France, l'Allemagne ou l'Angleterre -, la Belgique vit même se nouer pendant cette période une alliance entre les avant-gardes politique et artistique. Des écrivains comme Maeterlinck, Van Leberghe, Picard, Eekhoud ou Verhaeren, s'associèrent aux diverses expériences d'art social qu'imaginaient le jeune Parti Ouvrier Belge et ses alliés dans le souci, nouveau à l'époque, de faire une place à la culture dans un projet politique. Quelle était cette place et en quoi pouvait-elle rencontrer et ne pas rencontrer l'attente des milieux littéraires, en quoi la démarche de ceux-ci pouvait-elle s'accorder et ne pas s'accorder avec l'engagement politique, c'est ce qu'analyse minutieusement ce livre qui déplace du tout au tout l'image traditionnelle de la grande génération littéraire du siècle passé.

German scholars were early pioneers in folklore and historical linguistics. As the Nazis rose to power, however, these disciplines were distorted into racist pseudoscience. Under the direction of Heinrich Himmler's SS-Ahnenerbe (Ancestral Inheritance), folklore became a tool for constructing a unified German realm and a manufactured lineage from ancient and "pure" Germanic and Nordic blood.Drawing on extensive research in public and private archives and interviews with family members of fieldworkers, James R. Dow uncovers both details of the SS cultural commissions' work and the continuing vestiges of the materials they assembled. Teams of poorly qualified and ideologically motivated collectors were sent to South Tyrol in Italy and Gottschee in Slovenian Yugoslavia, from which ethnically German communities were to be resettled in the German Reich. Although a mass of information on narratives, songs and dances, beliefs, customs, local clothing and architecture, and folk speech was collected, the research was deeply tainted and skewed by racialist and nationalist preconditions. Dow sharply critiques the continued use of these ersatz archives.

This provocative study asks why we have held on to vivid images of the Nazis' total control of the visual and performing arts, even though research has shown that many artists and their works thrived under Hitler. To answer this question, Pamela M. Potter investigates how historians since 1945 have written about music, art, architecture, theater, film, and dance in Nazi Germany and how their accounts have been colored by politics of the Cold War, the fall of communism, and the wish to preserve the idea that true art and politics cannot mix. Potter maintains that although the persecution of Jewish artists and other "enemies of the state" was a high priority for the Third Reich, removing them from German cultural life did not eradicate their artistic legacies. Art of Suppression examines the cultural histories of Nazi Germany to help us understand how the circumstances of exile, the Allied occupation, the Cold War, and the complex meanings of modernism have sustained a distorted and problematic characterization of cultural life during the Third Reich.
