春之祭：第一次世界大战和现代的开端
(add) Modrice Ecksteins
"The Rite of Spring" is a masterful and witty exploration of the forgotten patterns of history, exploring the origins, impact and aftermath of the First World War - from the premiere of the ballet "The Rite of Spring" in 1913 to Hitler's death in 1945. In this remarkable book, author Modrice Ecksteins draws on the lives and speeches of ordinary people, literary works, and events such as Lindbergh's transoceanic flight and the publication of All Quiet on the Western Front, the first best-seller of the modern era, to chronicle the dramatic changes in perceptions caused by the catastrophe.
