The New Era: American Thought And Culture In The 1920S

The New Era examines American thought and culture in the 1920s through the eyes of a generation of American intellectuals who became tribunes of openness, experimentation, and tolerance. The book tracks the emergence of a new set of arguments and debates--over women's roles, sex, mass culture, the national character, ethnic identity, race, democracy, religion, and values--that would define American public life for the next fifty years.
