Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-8020-3657-0 Includes bibliographical references and index.Neo-romantic roots of German fascism -- Organic unity and the privileging of reason: Hegel and Beethoven -- Fascist undercurrents: appeals to authenticity and the privileging of reason -- Breakthrough into atonality (or postmodernism) -- Fascism and atonality (or postmodern play) -- Decentred totalities: fascism, capitalism, postmodernism.Temptations of Faust is a theoretical analysis of the conceptual paradigms that allowed German fascism to emerge in a highly civilized nation. Analyzing these paradigms through the dual lens of Thomas Mann's novel Doctor Faustus, his self-confessed parable of fascism about the avant-garde composer Adrian Leverknhn, and Theodor W. Adorno's Philosophy of Modern Music, this cultural study draws on aesthetic, sociohistorical, political, and philosophical discourses to conclude that German fascism is at once continuous and discontinuous with the emancipatory ambitions of modernity. Drawing on Adorno's sociohistorical critique of avant-garde music, Cobley connects Leverknhn's radical aesthetic innovation with Hitler's radical reconfiguration of Germany's administrative apparatus and discovers that postmodern processes of fragmentation may well remain complicit with the totalizing tendencies they seek to disrupt. This lucid and sophisticated book demonstrates that Doctor Faustus provides a more astute understanding of German fascism than Mann is usually given credit for.National socialismFascismPhilosophyHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)CausesElectronic books.
