Inhoud:

This is the first comprehensive study of modernity’s preoccupation with willpower. Michael Cowan examines the emergence of “will therapy” and its impact on arts and culture in Germany after 1900. The book leads readers through modern German cultural history, including literature, aesthetics, medicine, economics, body culture and pedagogy.
