Objectives Analyze how Western society changed after World War I. Describe the literary and artistic trends that emerged in the 1920s. List several advances in modern scientific thought.

Prohibition – a ban on the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages Terms and Places flapper – young woman who rejected the moral values of the Victorian era in favor of new, exciting freedoms Prohibition – a ban on the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages speakeasies – illegal bars Harlem Renaissance – African American cultural awakening 2

Terms and Places (continued) psychoanalysis – a method of studying how the mind works and treating mental disorders abstract – a form of art composed of lines, colors, and shapes, sometimes with no recognizable subject dada – artistic movement that rejected all traditional conventions surrealism – an art movement that attempted to portray the workings of the unconscious mind

What changes did Western society and culture experience after World War I? Society and culture were shaken by the experience of the war. This reaction occurred in Europe, the United States, and many other parts of the world. In science, discoveries changed what people understood. These shifts were mirrored in music, literature, and the fine arts. The world had changed, and the culture that existed before World War I no longer represented this new world. 4

These advances helped create a mass culture. During the 1920s, new technologies changed the way people lived in the world. Affordable cars Improved telephones Motion pictures Radio Labor-saving devices such as washing machines and vacuum cleaners These included: These advances helped create a mass culture. 5

Jazz music emerged in the 1920s. It combined Western harmonies with African rhythms. Nightclubs and the sounds of jazz became symbols of freedom. Jazz was embraced by young people who rejected Victorian values. The 1920s is known as the Jazz age.

After their work for the war effort, most women earned the right to vote. Despite this, overall progress was slow. Some women became flappers, rejecting Victorian values. Working outside the home became more common and career opportunities began to expand.

Some people disapproved of these lifestyle changes Some people disapproved of these lifestyle changes. The passage of the 18th Amendment establishing Prohibition was one such reaction. Prohibition caused an explosion of speakeasies and organized crime until it was repealed in 1933. Christian fundamentalists fought against changes in their schools. John T. Scopes was convicted of teaching evolution, which went against Tennessee law. 8

Postwar literature had a different focus than Victorian writings. Due to their recent experiences in the war, some postwar authors portrayed the modern world as spiritually barren. Others experimented with “stream of consciousness” writing without imposing logic or order. African American writers wrote about pride in their unique culture in the Harlem Renaissance movement. 9

Long-held ideas about nature were challenged through scientific discoveries. Through the works of the Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, and Enrico Fermi, atomic fission was discovered and utilized. Penicillin, a nontoxic mold that kills bacteria, was discovered by the Scottish scientist Alexander Fleming. Freud’s discoveries on the science of the mind through psychoanalysis changed peoples’ perceptions of the world around them. 10

Artwork became more abstract and intellectual as artists rejected the traditional. Movements such as dadaism and surrealism emerged with the intent to change how people think. 11

The trauma of World War I propelled many people to change the way they thought and acted during the turbulent 1920s. In the 1930s, the “lost generation” would face a new crisis. Science, medicine, politics, art, music, and architecture drove this evolution.
