• Chancellor Merkel Takes Charge

Who would have thought that the Social Democrats and the Union (Christian Democratic Union/Christian Socialist Union) would discover so much common ground that they were able to draft a program for four years?" Thus spoke Germany's resolute new Chancellor Angela Merkel when she took charge of a coalition government born of political necessity. Four years is a long time in politics. The Federal Republic's last Grand Coalition, memorable for Willy Brandt's ascent to chancellor in 1969, lasted three years. However, in this marriage of political convenience, held together by a carefully worked out "coalition contract" studded with all manner of compromises, each party knows a collapse of the union means new elections with everyone a loser.

• From Vernacular Humor to Middlebrow Modernism: Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and the Creation of Literary Value

In the nineteen teens, while the more modernist-friendly Vanity Fair's art reviews tried to accommodate the aesthetic visions of both modernists and their antagonists in the Academy of Arts and Design, Harper's Bacar printed an anti-modernist screed by the Academy's secretary.2 In addition, a regular columnist known as "The Bachelor" frequently found time to deride experimentation in art as so much rubbish. June Howard, for example, has shown how twenty years previous to the publication of Blondes (and previous to any interest it would show in modernism), Harper's Bazar already saw part of its role as a teacher of high culture to include the marketing of multiple, competing genres in the composite novel The Whole Family.\n19 However, it does suggest how, given the ambiguous status of e...
