Charlottenburg; Verlag Die Weltbühne, 1923

Original Wrappers. 8vo. [437-465] pages. In German. Serial publication (published weekly) . Die Weltbühne ("The World Stage") was one of the most important forums for leftist intellectuals in the Weimar Republic; the German weekly magazine was focused on politics, art, and business, founded in Berlin on 7 September 1905 by Siegfried Jacobsohn and was originally created strictly as a theater magazine under the title Die Schaubühne. It was renamed Die Weltbühne on 4 April 1918. After Jacobson's death in December 1926, Kurt Tucholsky took over the leadership of the magazine, which he turned over to Carl von Ossietzky in May 1927. The Nazis banned the publication after the Reichstag fire, and its last edition appeared on 7 March 1933. In exile the magazine was published under the title Die neue Weltbühne ("The New World Stage") as an explicit anti-fascist periodical. After the end of World War II, it appeared again under its original name in East Berlin, where it endured until 1993. Even at its high point, Die Weltbühne had a relatively low printing of 15, 000 copies. Subjects: German Culture- Literature. Weimar. Wrappers worn and detached, outer edges chipped. Pages aged, but clean. Fair condition. (HOLO2-92-47)
