There always was, is and always will be something quite alluring to me in this type of lifestyle.. although I lived it for quite a while and have it behind me.. I often think about these years with yearning. Life is strange. Thanks for this great video and cheers!
Interesting video essay on counterculture and art in history. I would gladly watch any further videos on the French bohemians you share. Love your nod to DaDaism. Newly Subscribed.
When the King of Bohemia gave write to the Romani in the 15th Century, they thought they were from Egypt: hence “Gypsy” When they moved east toward France and the Iberian peninsula they carried that same writ and were referred to as “Bohemians”
Yuppies were/are a subculture. They're connected to the bohemian set because many of the Yuppies were former hippies who got tired of being poor and struggling. So they watched Wall Street, said "I want that," and gave over. They're not bohemians any more, but were connected to the idea of Bohemia in a former life.
I am stupid, I thought people on image are from Czech republic. But he explicitly shows that they are not Czech Bohemians but different group. I didnt even know other "groups" called Bohemians exists.
No Hitler wasn't really a Bohemian, on the contrary he didn't trust the Bohemians and Moravians, but I can't really judge whether he was a bohemian or not.
It really wasn't an East German tribe. It was originally a Celtic Boii tribe. The Germanic Marcomanni then dominated them, and eventually came the Slavic tribes of Serbs, Croats and others, and out of this cocktail came the Bohemians and Moravians.
Beautiful video, Professor! A breath of fresh air and inspiration, really.

Cool video, could you maybe do some more videos on counter cultures? Its interesting to hear their background and history.

Holy shit what a great video, keep up the good work my man
Thank you! That’s very kind of you.
Apparently, I’m a total bohemian. Proudly so 😊🎉
cool video! thank you!
I’m glad you liked it! I enjoyed this one, even if it wasn’t too popular.
Throw in New York City gentrification and a dash of luck. This video is well woven. More on that dandies please?
Very interesting!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Great video
Thank you.
Thank you for this video
Excellent video!
I didn't get how the movement went from "abdicate of materialism" to luxury appearance despite famine...
Yuppies arent really a part of that. Yuppies are just young urban professionals. Not really a subculture.
there are movies on yuppie subculture though, most notably American Psycho. Urban professionals do have their own subculture
Keep the candles glowing and the wine flowing! Great line! Very interesting history topic. I would like to hear more detail...

Im searching for bohemian littérature !
Murger and Baudelaire are good places to start.
nice!
What is the peice playing in the background?
What is picture at 0:34 ? Those are supposed to be bohemians "Czechs" ?
They are wayyy too clean cut and glammed up 🤣
I am stupid, I thought people on image are from Czech republic. But he explicitly shows that they are not Czech Bohemians but different group. I didnt even know other "groups" called Bohemians exists.
And Ewan McGregor was one of them.. 😂
Adolf Hitler was once a Bohemian

@@vermull19 your quiet attractive, let's have a date!
You pronouce your "a" sound in a really odd way, I can't tell if its southern or midwestern or what.
Midwestern.
None of this is Bohemian.
Bohemians were an Eastern German tribe that practiced a farm lifestyle. Think Amish.
These are Hipsters.
You didn’t listen to a single word of this video did you?
@@DH_Artist Clearly not. Maybe they watched it with the sound down and the captions turned off.

This is SO utterly dated. L7
Are you stupid?
