This term refers to a typical aspect of America during the postwar prosperity from the end of World War I to the Great Depression of 1929. It is also called the Rolling Twenties. Jazz is a form of music that began to become popular among white society at that time, but it also has connotations of sex and dance, and suggests a general state of nervous excitement. Due to prosperity and a sense of liberation after the war, the younger generation in particular rebelled against the conservative moral code of the previous generation and generally became hedonistic, leading to a rapid change in customs and manners.

第1次世界大戦終結から1929年の大恐慌にいたる,戦後の繁栄のなかにあったアメリカの代表的一面を指す言葉。ローリング・トウェンティーズとも呼ばれる。 ジャズは,その当時から白人社会にも流行し出した音楽の一形式だが,ほかにセックス,そしてダンスの意味ももち,神経の一般的興奮状態を暗示している。繁栄と,戦後の解放感から,とくに若い世代が,前代までの保守的な道徳律に反抗して,一般的に享楽的になり,風俗やマナーが急激に変わった時代である。
