My dissertation historicizes representations of Expressionism from approximately 1910 to the present. It examines works of literature and art, as well as museum exhibitions and scholarship depicting Expressionism. These depictions of the movement include the anthology of poems, Menschheitsdammerung, the journals Der Sturm and Die Aktion, and the Schiller-Nationalmuseum's seminal 1960 exhibition Expressionismus. Literatur und Kunst 1910-1923. I investigate the way different historical contexts of these works influence our understanding of Expressionist genres, periodization of the movement, and the relationship of literature to politics and history. As the most broadly based modernist movement in Germany, Expressionism has played a singular, if little-studied, role in Germany's post-World-War-II reconstruction of its cultural heritage. Representations such as the Literatur und Kunst offer crucial insight into the connection between art and other spheres of human activity. By focusing on organizational methodologies of these representations and their historical and cultural contexts I bring attention to some of the most innovative and overlooked aspects of the movement. Foundational works of scholarship have obscured, for instance, the political (activist) nature of many aspects of Expressionism, and prematurely cited the end of the movement as approximately 1925. By examining these works of scholarship in conjunction with Expressionist creations such as Der Sturm and Die Aktion, as well as works outside of the Expressionist canon, such as the Eastern European journal MA, the study offers new understanding of the breadth of Expressionism and, more generally, demonstrates the crucial role of literature and art in the formation of cultural and national identities. In creating a genealogy of representations of the movement, I also bring attention to the aesthetically and politically subversive role of public sculptures/memorials and utopic communities, aspects of Expressionism which have been neglected.
