| Abstract | In addressing the nature of radical German-American culture here, we are describing. . .the subjectivity of the social movement--not the formal, essentially ideological expression of Marxism as the belief in scientific social analysis but rather the means available when ordinary Socialists expressed their own perceived position in society and their hopes for the future. . . . we are describing [a group] in dynamic and swift-changing relation to the dominant society and culture at historical points where those entities might literally go one way or the other. . . . [and] we are considering a form of mass culture, a mass aesthetic, which has never been properly appreciated. . . . Immigrant workers provided the audience for and the participants in sports, theater, music halls, moving pictures, and the commercial press. |
