Zauner's A Handful of Earth describes an ambitious domineering woman who gains her financial goals but, like Brecht's Mother Courage, at the cost of her entire family; Elfriede Jelinek's President Evening Breeze, based loosely on a folk play by Johann Nestroy, the acknowledged nineteenth-century master of the form, is a political satire on the career of Kurt Waldheim, the former president of Austria; Peter Rosei's Blameless presents ordinary people as the subject of history; it shows how the media as representatives of commercial culture, popularize and often trivialize serious current issues.

The five plays collected in this volume provide a representative sampling of the Austrian contemporary Volksstuck (folk play). The Volksstuck which has its origins in the eighteenth century has become a favorite genre of modern Austrian playwrights because of its tradition of treating basic social problems critically and realistically. The timeless universal drives of greed, power, and inhumanity remain the dominant themes of the modern Volksstuck as they were of the older version. These Selections -- Veza Canetti, The Ogre; Peter Preses/Ulrich Becher, Our Mr. Bockerer; Peter Turrini, Swine; Felix Mitterer, No Place for Idiots; Gerald Szyszkowitz, Friedemann Puntigam -- are available in English for the first time.

From a symposium at the University of California, Riverside, in 1997. Contributions in German were published as a special issue of Modern Austrian literature, 31, 3/4, 1998; English contributions are contained in this volume. Twenty-one essays consider the national image of Austria, both historically and in the current period. They examine the view of Austria projected in the writings of American, Austrian, and German authors, ranging from the late 19th century to the present. Attention is given to factors such as the country's natural beauty, the tradition of the monarchy, and pressing political and social problems. Name index only.

"Fritz Hochwalder's Holocaust: Court for the Dead features a clandestine court, inquiring into the guilt or innocence of Jewish leaders involuntarily enmeshed in the deportation of fellow Jews to the death factories of the Third Reich. It is perhaps the drama closest to Hochwalder's central concern as an author, the ethical conduct of human beings. The play is based on historical events in Budapest in 1944-45 in which the SS offered to barter the lives of a million Jews for the delivery of 10,000 trucks. Selective use of background facts along with the construction of a dramatically effective plot put Hochwalder's drama into the "must read" category. It is the only play about the Holocaust in which Jews do not fight the oppressor but hold court for one of their own, who in spite of good intentions may have gone too far."--BOOK JACKET.
