"A richly contextualized portrait of a key Weimar figure, who deserves to be better known. Easton is a lively writer."--Martin Jay, University of California, Berkeley "Provocative and original. "The Red Count "should be welcomed by a growing number of cultural historians interested in reassessing the politics of European modernism and in current debates about the trajectory of German political culture and cultural politics in the decades before the rise of fascism."--Kevin Repp, Yale University "A major addition to understanding the cultural contributions Germany made to the modernist impulse, especially in the years before 1914.
