    Abstract: In the years after 1933 several hundred architects were forced to emigrate from Germany by the National Socialist dictatorship. Between seventy and eighty of them went to Great Britain--in part, prominent representatives of Modernism like Walter Gropius, Erich Mendelsohn, Erwin Gutkind, Arthur Korn and Marcel Breuer, but also less well known architects who had adopted very divergent positions. They found the architectural scene in Great Britain to be surprisingly conservative. Only a small circle of architects, clients and specialist journalists was open to modern design and construction methods and stylistic idioms. A few emigrants very quickly and successfully managed to gain a foothold in an environment that was for the most part unfamiliar to them, while for others exile meant a serious break in their career. The book offers an overview of the topic and presents select buildings in detail. Moreover, hitherto largely unpublished documents from the estate of Walter Gropius provide a direct insight into his life and work in British exile

    Abstract: Hamburg gehörte seit 1934 zu den fünf "Führerstädten", die das NS-Regime durch großmaßstäbliche Planungen und Architektur repräsentierten sollten. Verantwortlich war ein junger Hamburger Architekt, der in der Weimarer Republik an der TH Stuttgart studiert hatte und 1939 mit gerade einmal 37 Jahren beauftragt wurde, Hamburg von Grund auf neu zu planen: Konstanty Gutschow. Seine Karriere quer zu allen politischen Systemen in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts steht im Mittelpunkt dieses reich bebilderten Titels. - - Dem vermeintlichen Widerspruch zwischen Moderne und Volksgemeinschaft wird anhand der von Gutschow entwickelten Planungsgedanken der 1930er Jahre bis hinein in die bundesrepublikanische Nachkriegszeit nachgegangen. Die Publikation schließt damit eine bedeutende Lücke der Hamburger Architekturgeschichte und ergänzt diese um eine wichtige biografische Studie
