The Reintegration of the Loyalists in Post-Revolutionary America
Get PDFMost White Loyalists were able to successfully reintegrate into society after the American Revolution. They made their case through decisions to stay and petition for amnesty, which was helped by demonstrating that they embodied republican civic virtues and by making amends with their community. Americans were willing to accept them back into society because of republican ideals, exhaustion from the war, the desire to repair community cohesion, and the social ties that prevailed between both sides throughout the war
“In the Spirit of a Millennial Inheritance:” The Nazi Ambition to Regenerate German Civilization through the Visual Arts
Get PDFThis paper intends to explain the complex and seemingly contradictory implementation of Nazi cultural policy regarding the visual arts by understanding Nazi cultural ideology. By examining the writing and speeches of Adolf Hitler and his ideological predecessors, it is apparent that the Nazis did not object to many modern art styles for purely aesthetic reasons. Instead, they associated the perceived degeneration of art with the degeneration of German society due to the influence of Jews and political opponents. Therefore, the Nazi hope to regenerate German civilization informed the policy of removing “degenerate art” from public display and purifying the art world of the perceived subversive elements. They attempted to replace them with authentic German art. While various individuals and artworks took inspiration from neoclassical, modern, and other styles, Hitler did not put forward a specific Nazi style. Instead, he intended for German art to reflect Nazi ideals and serve as the cultural foundation for a utopian German future
