- This article aims to intervene in the often-discussed area of department stores. In contrast to much literary criticism that is based largely on published texts, it uses research carried out in four German archives and another in New York to explore non-canonical literary and musical representations of the department store in the late Weimar Republic. It uses a theorisation of class, gender and race in order to explore how department store stories functioned as a medium that simultaneously contested contemporaneous antisemitism, and defined the ways in which the Weimar department store entered the popular imagination.
