This series focuses on the life and work of the internationally celebrated German writer Lion Feuchtwanger (1884-1958). Of particular interest are topics such as Feuchtwanger's role as a critic of Weimar Germany and the rise of Nazism, his years of exile in France (1933-40) and in the USA (1940-58), his achievements as a proponent of the historical novel, and his reception both in post-war Germany and in the wider world.
