1922: Episodes from a Turbulent Year
6.99 €
The events of 1922 reverberated throughout the twentieth century, and continue to affect us a hundred years later. Empires fell. The Soviet Union was officially established, and Mussolini's Italy became the first fascist state. T. S. Eliot's "Barren Land" was published in full for the first time. S. Eliot and James Joyce's "Ulysses." Prohibition was at its peak in the United States, and shaken by a string of scandals, the Hollywood movie industry continued to grow. A new medium, radio, was emerging, and in Britain the BBC was founded. In a postwar society already altered by bloody trauma and pandemic, the mores of the past seemed even more obsolete; the "roaring twenties" began to rumble on, heralding the beginning of the "jazz age."
