Music in this period was very different from the past which can be seen in Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring. In Rite of Spring, the rhythms are brash and irregular, which contrasts the earlier music of Germany, with its smoother and slower rhythms.

The intellectual and cultural movements altered objective knowledge, questioned reason's abilities, and altered morals by throwing away old traditions, which was made possible by developments like new physics that challenged the Newtonian universe and the surrealist movement that challenged the idea of reality.

Europeans often went to go see movies, as they were relatively new and more and more innovations were being made. While Europe's cinema could not compare with that of Hollywood, many European movies were made and seen during this time.

Heisenburg is best known for his uncertainty principle which states that there is no way of knowing the position and momentum of a particle. This undermines the Newtonian universe because he thought that everything could be measured, like mass and velocity.

Einstein is most known for his Special and General Theory of Relativity and the concept of mass-energy equivalence. He challenged the Newtonian idea that space isn't affected by what is in it. Einstein said that the mass of an object can move space.

Bohr created a model of the atom, with electrons orbiting a nucleus. This undermined the Newtonian universe because Newton had measurable values, like mass and velocity, while with Bohr, the atom is too small to even been seen so the exact position of the components didn't really matter.

This foyer is a part of the art deco movement because of its use of geometric patterns. On the rug, the same pattern is repeated, the doors have a somewhat diamond shape, and the archways are made of straight lines rather than a smooth curve. The art deco movement is known for its geometric patterns, bold colors, and defined outlines.

“I have spent all my life resisting the desire to end it.”

This quote reflects the existentialism of the period, as many began to question the meaning of life and reality.

"Never such innocence,

Never before or since,

As changed itself to past

Without a word – the men

Leaving the gardens tidy,

The thousands of marriages,

Lasting a little while longer:

Never such innocence again."

The themes of literature at the time were very dark, like the one above from Larkin. Because of the First World War, man's innocence is gone and can never come back. After the cruelties of the war -the destroying of the environment, machine guns, and poison gas- the world has become tainted and the innocence that once was is extinct.

𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘍𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘞𝘢𝘳 reflects the anxieties of war by making many faces within each other, all of which look worried and ghoulish. This is an example of surrealism because it taps into the unconscious mind and the pure fear that resides there. Surrealism was different than other art movements because of the automatism that came with it. Because surrealism focused on the unconscious, automatism gave up artist control and planning of the painting, instead they give up control in making the art.

𝘚𝘭𝘦𝘦𝘱 showcases the fragility of reality, as the face is completely being held up by crutches. This is an example of surrealism because it questions what reality really is, as well as exploring the realms of dreams and sleep.

𝘗𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘔𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘺 is an iconic surrealist piece because of it's dreamlike qualities. The clocks are melting and losing purpose, much like how the passage of time feels in dreams. Ants are seen on one of the clocks, which represents the decay of time. This also questions the existence of time as a concrete thing that is able to be measured with a clock, when really it is more complex and abstract.
