Summary: "Die Karikatur im Weltkriege" by Ernst Schulz-Besser is a historical account likely written during the early 20th century. This work examines the role and impact of caricature art during World War I, reflecting the feelings and sentiments of various nations involved in the conflict. The author discusses how these satirical illustrations not only offer commentary on current events but also serve as significant cultural and historical documents of the time. At the start of the book, Schulz-Besser emphasizes the importance of caricature as a medium that captures the emotions and attitudes of different peoples towards one another during the war. He reflects on the complexity of wartime sentiment, noting that humor and satire persist even in dire times, suggesting that such expressions are essential for maintaining morale. The opening section sets the stage for a deeper exploration of specific motifs, artists, and works of caricature that emerged from the war, positioning these artworks as both reflections of and responses to the tumultuous environment of the early 20th century.
