Teenage : the creation of youth culture

In 1945, just as the war was ending, the 'teenager' arrived. This is the story of how we got to that moment. Jon Savage goes back to 1875 (when the first bestselling teenage memoir appeared and the first teenage mass murderer was tried), and takes us all the way through to the death of Anne Frank in 1945.

  • "Teenagers--as we have come to define them--were not, journalist Savage tells us, born in the 1950s of rockers and Beatniks, when most histories would begin. Rather, the teenager as icon can be traced back to the 1890s, when the foundations for the new century were laid in urban youth culture. This cultural history charts the spread of the American ideal of youth through England and Europe and around the world. From Peter Pan to Oscar Wilde, Anne Frank to the Wizard of Oz, Savage documents youth culture's development as a commodity and an industry from the turn of the last century to its current driving force in the global economy. Fusing film, music, literature, diaries, fashion, and art, this epic cultural history is a surprising chronicle of modern life sure to appeal to pop culture fans, social history buffs, and anyone who has ever been a teenager.--From publisher description."@en

  • "Wohl jede Generation glaubt von sich, sie habe Idealismus, Provokation und Tabubruch erfunden und besonders symbolisch dafür steht die Jugend. Doch ab wann wurde" Jugend"überhaupt als eigenständiger Lebensabschnitt betrachtet? Der Kulturwissenschaftler und Musikjournalist Jon Savage beginnt im Jahr 1875 und zeigt: Über Grenzen und Generationen hinweg wurden Jugendliche mit ihrer Energie und ihrem Idealismus entweder nach Kräften kontrolliert oder ausgenutzt. Von Hollywoods Traumfabrik bis Peter Pan und der ewigen Jugend, von Wandervögeln bis zur Hitlerjugend, von den städtischen Jugendbanden bis zum umworbenen" Konsum-Kid"gewährt das Buch faszinierende Einblicke in die Vorgeschichte des modernen Teenagers. Jon Savage, geboren 1953, studierte in Cambridge und ist Schriftsteller, Rundfunkautor und Musikjournalist. Durch die Veröffentlichung seiner preisgekrönten Geschichte des Punk Rock mit dem Titel England's Dreaming wurde er interna-tional bekannt. Er schreibt seit über dreißig Jahren über gesellschafts- und kulturhistorische Themen, unter anderem für den Guardian und Observer. Für Teenage hat er über zehn Jahre recherchiert."
