Eva Priester, geboren am 15. Juli 1910 in Petersburg als Eva Beatrice Feinstein, kam mit ihren jüdischen Eltern 1919 nach Berlin. Als Mitarbeiterin einer Berliner Tageszeitung löste sie sich jedoch bald aus dem gutbürgerlichen Milieu und beteiligte sich aktiv am Kampf gegen den heraufziehenden Faschismus. Das führte so weit, dass sie nach dem Reichstagsbrand (1933) verhaftet und im Gestapogefängnis inhaftiert wurde. Entlassen flüchtete die als illegale Kommunistin und als Jüdin verfolgte Eva Priester 1935 zuerst nach Wien, dann nach Prag und von dort 1939 nach London. Insbesondere die Wiederherstellung der Unabhängigkeit Österreichs war ihr ein Anliegen. Um die Sympathien der Engländer für Österreich zu gewinnen, veröffentlichte sie das Heft "Austria. Gateway to Germany". Nach dem Krieg wird Eva Priester 1945/46 in Wien verantwortliche Redakteurin von Zeitungen der Kommunistischen Partei Österreichs, es erscheint ihre materialistische "Geschichte Österreichs" und ein Gedichtband "Aus Krieg und Nachkrieg". Doch sie war nicht nur im Schreiben aktiv: 1951 reiste Eva Priester mit einer internationalen Frauenkommission zur Untersuchung der US-amerikanischen Kriegsverbrechen nach Korea und 1956 beobachtete sie die Ereignisse in Ungarn und nahm 1958 in Paris und Algier am algerischen Befreiungskampf Anteil. All ihre dabei gesammelten Erfahrungen sammelte sie in reflektierenden Essays, die auch von Nordafrika, der Tschechoslowakei und Polen, der Sowjetunion, vom Befreiungskampf unter der Fahne des Islam sowie von Israel und Palästina handeln. Am 15. August 1982 ist Eva Priester verstorben, ihre Urnengrabstätte am Wiener Zentralfriedhof ist aufgelassen. "Es war einmal ..." – eine Kommunistin, die ihre Weltanschauung nie verloren hat und ihrem Ziel, einen Beitrag zur humanistischen Erziehung des Menschen zu leisten, treu geblieben ist.

Immortal Austria was the title of a theatrical pageant devised by Austrian refugees in wartime London, the name summarizing their collective memory of their homeland as a country of mountain scenery, historical grandeur and musical refinement. The reality of the country they had left, and the one to which some of them returned, was very different. This volume contains various studies of the representations of their homeland in the cultural production of Austrian exiles, including those projected by émigrés working in the British film industry, those portrayed in the historical novel and in the literary works of such notable authors as Stefan Zweig, Elias Canetti and Robert Neumann. It opens with a survey of the make-up of the Austrian exile community and concludes with a study of attitudes to returning exiles, as reflected in the post-war literary journals. The volume thus offers students and teachers a vital cultural link between the pre-1934 Austria of the First Republic and the post-1945 Austria of the Second.

Historians traditionally claim to be myth-breakers, but national history since the nineteenth century shows quite a record in myth-making. This exciting new volume compares how national historians in Europe have handled the opposing pulls of fact and fiction and shows which narrative strategies have contributed to the success of national histories.

The Austrian Centre was established in London in 1939 by Austrians seeking refuge from Nazi Germany, of whom 30,000 had reached Britain by the outbreak of World War II. It soon developed into a comprehensive social, cultural and political organisation with a theatre and a weekly newspaper of its own. A Communist-influenced organisation, it also followed a distinct political agenda. In the first book on the cultural and political life of Austrian refugees in Britain, "Out of Austria" assesses and evaluates the Austrian Centre's activities and achievements, while also examining the Austrians' often fraught relations with their British hosts. It gives a fascinating insight into such figures as Sigmund Freud, who became the Centre's Honorary President during his final months and the poet Erich Fried, then an unknown seventeen-year-old, k and sheds light on the interaction of politics and culture against the background of exile in wartime Britain.
