Peter Fritzsche Perry, Joseph B. 2015-09-25T22:23:32Z 2015-09-25T22:23:32Z 10000-01-01 2001 2001 Historians of Germany have long recognized public ritual as tremendously important for the cultural construction of social communities and the dramatic display of power relationships, yet for the most part they have ignored domestic festivity, including Christmas, Germany's most popular holiday.
