In A Science for the Soul, historian Corinna Treitel explores the appeal and significance of German occultism in all its varieties between the 1870s and the 1940s, locating its dynamism in the nation's struggle with modernization and the public's dissatisfaction with scientific materialism. Occultism, Treitel notes, served as a bridge between traditional religious beliefs and the values of an increasingly scientific, secular, and liberal society. Drawing on a wealth of archival materials, Treitel describes the individuals and groups who participated in the occult movement, reconstructs their organizational history, and examines the economic and social factors responsible for their success. Building on this foundation, Treitel turns to the question of how Germans used the occult in three realms of practice: Theosophy, where occult studies were used to achieve spiritual enlightenment the arts, where occult states of consciousness fueled the creative process of avant-garde painters, writers, and dancers and the applied sciences, where professionals in psychology, law enforcement, engineering, and medicine employed occult techniques to solve characteristic problems of modernity. In conclusion, Treitel considers the conflicting meanings occultism held for contemporaries by focusing on the anti-spiritualist campaigns mounted by the national press, the Protestant and Catholic Churches, local and national governments, and the Nazi regime, which after years of alternating between affinity and antipathy for occultism, finally crushed the movement by 1945.

Age of Entanglement explores patterns of connection linking German and Indian intellectuals from the nineteenth century to the years after the Second World War. Kris Manjapra traces the intersecting ideas and careers of a diverse collection of individuals from South Asia and Central Europe who shared ideas, formed networks, and studied one another’s worlds. Moving beyond well-rehearsed critiques of colonialism towards a new critical approach, this study recasts modern intellectual history in terms of the knotted intellectual itineraries of seeming strangers. Collaborations in the sciences, arts, and humanities produced extraordinary meetings of German and Indian minds. Meghnad Saha met Albert Einstein, Stella Kramrisch brought the Bauhaus to Calcutta, and Girindrasekhar Bose began a correspondence with Sigmund Freud. Rabindranath Tagore traveled to Germany to recruit scholars for a new Indian university, and the actor Himanshu Rai hired director Franz Osten to help establish movie studios in Bombay. These interactions, Manjapra argues, evinced shared responses to the cultural and political hegemony of the British empire. Germans and Indians hoped to find in one another the tools needed to disrupt an Anglocentric world order. As Manjapra demonstrates, transnational intellectual encounters are not inherently progressive. From Orientalism and Aryanism to socialism and scientism, German–Indian entanglements were neither necessarily liberal nor conventionally cosmopolitan, often characterized as much by manipulation as by cooperation. Age of Entanglement underscores the connections between German and Indian intellectual history, revealing the characteristics of a global age when the distance separating Europe and Asia seemed, temporarily, to disappear.

The special issue of International Yearbook of Futurism Studies for 2015 will investigate the role of Futurism in the œuvre of a number of Women artists and writers. These include a number of women actively supporting Futurism (e.g. Růžena Zátková, Edyth von Haynau, Olga Rozanova, Eva Kühn), others periodically involved with the movement (e.g. Valentine de Saint Point, Aleksandra Ekster, Mary Swanzy), others again inspired only by certain aspects of the movement (e.g. Natalia Goncharova, Alice Bailly, Giovanna Klien). Several artists operated on the margins of a Futurist inspired aesthetics, but they felt attracted to Futurism because of its support for women artists or because of its innovatory roles in the social and intellectual spheres. Most of the artists covered in Volume 5 (2015) are far from straightforward cases, but exactly because of this they can offer genuinely new insights into a still largely under-researched domain of twentieth-century art and literature. Guiding questions for these investigations are: How did these women come into contact with Futurist ideas? Was it first-hand knowledge (poems, paintings, manifestos etc) or second-hand knowledge (usually newspaper reports or personal conversions with artists who had been in contact with Futurism)? How did the women respond to the (positive or negative) reports? How did this show up in their œuvre? How did it influence their subsequent, often non-Futurist, career?

Tischrücken und Geisterbeschwörungen, spiritistische Séancen und Versuchsreihen mit Personen, die sich als Medium verstanden, hatten um 1900 in den Salons der Spiritisten wie in den Laboratorien der parapsychologischen Forschung Hochkonjunktur. Gegen gängige Ansichten, die dieses Phänomen allein als Widerpart und gegenläufiges Kontrastprogramm zur Moderne beschreiben, zeigt diese Studie, daß der Okkultismus in seinen Ausprägungen als Spiritismus, Mediumismus und Parapsychologie zugleich in Affinität zur Moderne stand. Er ist also auf der einen Seite als regressiv, auf der anderen aber - so die These - als durchaus modernewirksam zu beurteilen. Die Arbeit unterzieht diese andere, von der traditionellen Geschichtsschreibung vernachlässigte Seite der Moderne einer geistes- und kulturhistorischen sowie einer wissenschafts- und literaturgeschichtlichen Rekonstruktion. Dargestellt werden die kulturelle Praxis von Okkultismus und Spiritismus sowie die damit verbundenen theoretischen Konzepte und Kontroversen, um in einem zweiten Schritt die - äußerst zahlreichen und oft überraschenden - Querverbindungen zwischen Okkultismus und Literatur offenzulegen. Analysen zentraler Texte von Johannes Schlaf, Thomas Mann, Alfred Döblin und Rainer Maria Rilke, die den Kern der Studie bilden, gehen schließlich der Frage nach, inwieweit Okkultismus und Spiritismus Impulse für die Herausbildung einer modernen Ästhetik und Poetik geben konnten.

Die Studie beleuchtet bedeutende Persönlichkeiten des politischen, geistigen und künstlerisch-kulturellen Lebens in Wien um 1900, die zwischen 1885 und 1915 vom Judentum zum Protestantismus übertraten. Darunter finden sich bekannte Namen wie Alfred Adler, Victor Adler, Egon Friedell, Edmund Husserl, Lise Meitner, Elise Richter, Arnold Schönberg, Otto Weininger und Alexander Zemlinsky. Was veranlasste diese Menschen im katholisch geprägten Wien des Fin de Siècle zu einem solchen Schritt? Die Beweggründe für einen Religionswechsel waren vielschichtig und komplex. Der zeitgenössische Antisemitismus spielte ebenso eine Rolle wie die weltanschauliche, kulturelle und religiöse Orientierung der Konvertitinnen und Konvertiten. In der religiös höchst aufgeladenen Zeit um 1900 kam den Faktoren "Religion" und "Religiosität" auf jeden Fall eine weit größere Bedeutung zu, als dies bisher angenommen wurde. Ausgehend von einem historischen Überblick zu Judentum und Protestantismus im 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhundert werden die Glaubensbiographien sowie die religiösen und weltanschaulichen Positionen der Konvertitinnen und Konvertiten nachgezeichnet.

Was wusste man im Deutschen Reich der Frühen Neuzeit und der beginnenden Moderne von der ethnischen und religiösen Vielfalt Ungarns? Die deutschsprachige Literatur aber auch Pressetexte, Stammbücher, Chroniken und Reiseberichte aus jener Zeit spiegeln eine Fülle von zum Teil sehr unterschiedlichen Selbst- und Fremdbildern wider. Die Autoren dieses Bandes haben diese vielfältigen Quellen ausgewertet. Ihre hier gebündelten Forschungsergebnisse charakterisieren Intensität und Ausgestaltung der deutsch-ungarischen Beziehungen zwischen dem 16. und 19. Jahrhundert und bieten zahlreiche Ansätze für die Imagologie- und Kulturgeschichtsforschung.
