"Following the German annexation of Austria in 1938 and the intensified persecution of the Jews, the British and American governments relaxed their restrictions on immigration and issued entry visas to tens of thousands of German-speaking refugees. The resulting exodus can be seen as the most significant cultural migration of modern times. For the majority of the refugees from National Socialism came from educated backgrounds, and they included some of the most gifted members of the cultural elite." "The remarkable contributions made by refugees from Austria to the cultural life of the English-speaking world form the subject of this book, which reviews the achievements both of refugee organisations and of outstanding individual authors, including Stefan Zweig, Erich Fried, Hilde Spiel, Josef Fraenkel, Felix Pollak and Elias Canetti. Their commitment to the struggle against fascism, exemplified by the political cartoons of Joseph Otto Flatter, also provided an inspiration for the restoration of Austrian independence after the defeat of Nazi Germany." --Book Jacket.

Erstmals wird im ersten Teil dieses Buches die österreichische Exil- und Emigrationsforschung über die „Vertriebene Vernunft und Kunst“ in englischer Sprache dokumentiert. Mit Beiträgen über den kulturellen Exodus (Wissenschaft, Literatur, Film, Theater, Musik, Architektur und bildende Kunst) in der Epoche des Faschismus und Nationalsozialismus mit den spürbaren Folgen bis zur Gegenwart wird der durch Vertreibung und Vernichtung vom Lande selbst verursachte geistige Verlust zwischen Kontinuität und Bruch thematisiert. Die Forschungsbeiträge von vorwiegend jüngeren österreichischen WissenschaftlerInnen werden durch (auto)biographische Texte von – heute prominenten – vertriebenen Österreichern und Vertretern des Widerstandes bereichert.Im zweiten, dokumentarischen Teil sind rund 4000 Kurzbiographien der österreichischen kulturellen Emigration in Form von 5 Datenbanken (Wissenschaft, Literatur, Film/Theater, Musik, bildende Kunst/Architektur) in deutscher Sprache sowie durch eine umfassende Dokumentation der österreichischen Exilzeitschriften (1933–1945) abgedrucktDamit stellt diese Publikation ein reich illustriertes Lese- und Materialienbuch zum kulturellen Exodus aus Österreich dar, dessen Aktualität auch in der heutigen Rolle Österreichs als (R)Emigrations- und Immigrationsland nach der „Wende 1989/90“ liegt.
