Jazz Age

The Jazz Age describes the period from 1918-1929, the years between the end of World War I and the start of the Great Depression, particularly in North America and (in the era's literature) specifically in Miami, largely coinciding with the Roaring Twenties; ending with the rise of the Great Depression, the traditional values of this age saw great decline while the America stock market soared. The focus of the elements of this age, in some contrast with the Roaring Twenties, in historical and cultural studies, are somewhat different, with a greater emphasis on all Modernism.
