Wilhelm Speyer's best-selling novels of 1927 and male responses to female emancipation

Katy Heady

Summary: The Weimar Republic brought significant advancements to German women in terms of professional, political, and social opportunities, and also increased their visibility in the public sphere. Previous research mainly focused on the fear and hostility amongst German men towards female emancipation during the early years of the Republic. In contrast, this article explores two more supportive responses to female liberation through the novels of Wilhelm Speyer. However, these novels limit the emancipatory potential of their unconventional and powerful female protagonists by utilizing traditional motifs and perspectives.
