Focusing on three key groups-railway personnel, soldiers, and telephone operators-Andreas Killen traces the emergence in the 1880's and then later decline of the belief that modernity caused nervous illness. During this period, Killen explains, Berlin became arguably the most advanced metropolis in Europe. A host of changes, many associated with breakthroughs in technologies of transportation, communication, and leisure, combined to radically alter the shape and tempo of everyday life in Berlin. The resulting consciousness of accelerated social change and the shocks and afflictions that accompanied it found their consummate expression in the discourse about nervousness. Wonderfully researched and clearly written, this book offers a wealth of new insights into the nature of the modern metropolis, the psychological aftermath of World War I, and the operations of the German welfare state. Killen also explores cultural attitudes toward electricity, the evolution of psychiatric thought and practice, and the status of women workers in Germany's rapidly industrializing economy. Ultimately, he argues that the backlash against the welfare state that occurred during the late Weimar Republic brought about the final decoupling of modernity and nervous illness. 410 0$aWeimar and now ;$v38. 606 $aNeurasthenia$xSocial aspects$zGermany$zBerlin$xHistory 606 $aMental fatigue$xSocial aspects$zGermany$zBerlin$xHistory 606 $aElectrotherapeutics$zGermany$zBerlin$xHistory 606 $aElectrification$zGermany$zBerlin$xHistory 606 $aIndustrialization$zGermany$zBerlin$xPsychological aspects 606 $aSocial change$zGermany$zBerlin$xPsychological aspects 606 $aRailroads$xEmployees$xMental health$zGermany$zBerlin 606 $aTelephone operators$xMental health$zGermany$zBerlin 606 $aSoldiers$xMental health$zGermany$zBerlin 606 $aPsychiatry$zGermany$zBerlin$xHistory 610 $aberlin. 610 $abrain. 610 $aelectricity. 610 $aeurope. 610 $afactory workers. 610 $agerman history. 610 $agerman. 610 $agermany. 610 $agreat war. 610 $ahistory of medicine. 610 $ahistory. 610 $aindustrial revolution. 610 $ainsanity. 610 $alabor. 610 $alunacy. 610 $amadness. 610 $amanichean teleology. 610 $amedical community. 610 $ametropolis. 610 $amodernity. 610 $anervous disorders. 610 $anervous illness. 610 $anervousness. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apsyche. 610 $apsychiatry. 610 $apsychology. 610 $aptsd. 610 $arailways. 610 $ascience. 610 $ashell shock. 610 $asocial change. 610 $atechnology. 610 $atelephone operators. 610 $atrauma. 610 $aveterans. 610 $aweimar republic. 610 $awelfare state. 610 $awomen workers. 610 $aworld war one. 610 $aww1. 615 0$aNeurasthenia$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aMental fatigue$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aElectrotherapeutics$xHistory. 615 0$aElectrification$xHistory. 615 0$aIndustrialization$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aSocial change$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aRailroads$xEmployees$xMental health 615 0$aTelephone operators$xMental health 615 0$aSoldiers$xMental health 615 0$aPsychiatry$xHistory. 676 $a362.196/8528/00943155 700 $aKillen$b Andreas$01467797 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783312003321 996 $aBerlin electropolis$93678627 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02590nas 2200673-a 450 001 996336365703316 005 20240413025951.0 011 $a2271-8052 035 $a(CKB)991042732744572 035 $a(CONSER)---98648812- 035 $a(EXLCZ)99991042732744572 100 $a19960523a19969999 --- - 101 0 $afre 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aResponsabilité & environnement 210 1$aParis :$cEditions ESKA,$d1996- 210 31$aLe Plessis Robinson :$cCOM & COM 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aTitle from cover. 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 311 $aPrint version: Responsabilité & environnement.
