Abstract (en)

Analyzes the fascination with rhythm and its significance in Germany, beginning with Nietzsche's Birth of tragedy from the spirit of music (1872), in which he called for a renewal of German culture through expression of the Dionysian impulse. Notes the association of rhythm with this vital spirit and with the unifying order of nature in all aspects of German culture of the late 19th and early 20th cs. Focuses on the expression of rhythm by individual artists such as Nolde, Kandinsky, and Klee, and in the art of the Jugendstil, Brücke, Blaue Reiter, and Bauhaus movements.
