Assessing the impact of fin-de-siècle Jewish culture on subsequent developments in literature and culture, this book is the first to consider the historical trajectory of Austrian-Jewish writing across the 20th century. It examines how Vienna, the city that stood at the center of Jewish life in the Austrian Empire and later the Austrian nation, assumed a special significance in the imaginations of Jewish writers as a space and an idea. The author focuses on the special relationship between Austrian-Jewish writers and the city to reveal a century-long pattern of living in tension with the city, experiencing simultaneously acceptance and exclusion, feeling "unheimlich heimisch" (eerily at home) in Vienna.

Excerpt from Imperial Vienna: An Account of Its History, Traditions and Arts Vienna, with her up-to - date improvements, her system of electric tramways, her metropolitan railways, and other modern means of transit, can hold her own with the great cities of the world. She possesses other in terests too, for much of the old mediaeval charm still hovers over the city, and it is exactly this which gives her an air of sanctity. This, coupled with her romantic history, has always had peculiar attractions to me even before I set foot on her threshold. Hence this book. But in the course of writing it, so many difiiculties beset me - there were so many works to read, so much to see and examine - that it was hard to judge what to keep and what to reject, for not even in German has any one book been written which deals with Vienna throughout her different stages of development to the present day. This, then, is my apology for the putting forth of this work, which in no ways must be looked upon as exhausting the subject.

This book explores and debates the urban transformations that have taken place in Vienna over the past 30 years and their consequences in policy fields such as labour and housing, political and social participation and the environment. Historically, European cities have been characterised by a strong association between social cohesion, quality of life, economic ambition and a robust State. Vienna is an excellent example for that. In more recent years, however, cities were pressured to change policy principles and mechanisms in the context of demographic shifts, post-industrial transformations and welfare recalibration which have led to worsened social conditions in many cities. Each chapter in this volume discusses Vienna’s responses to these pressures in key policy arenas, looking at outcomes from the context-specific local arrangements. Against a theoretical framework debating the European city as a model of inclusion and social justice, authors explore the local capacity to innovate urban policies and to address new social risks, while paying attention to potential trade-offs. The book questions and assesses the city’s resilience using time series and an institutional analysis of four key dimensions that characterise the European city model within the context of post-industrial transition: redistribution, recognition, representation and sustainability. It offers a multiscalar perspective of urban governance through labour, housing, participatory and environmental policies, bringing together different levels and public policy types. Vienna: Still a Just City? is aimed at academics, researchers and policy-makers in urban studies, including urban sociology, ecology, geography and welfare.

This non-fiction book throws light on the half-century of eventful history centred on the spectacular City of Vienna, the demise of the powerful Habsburg Dynasty and World Wars I and II. History comes to life through personal memories of the Author. This book focuses on the dramatic changes that occurred in the imperial city of Vienna, the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, covering the period between the late 19th century until the end of the Soviet occupation in May 1955. Before the disaster of World War I, arts, music, science, architecture, music and medicine flourished in Vienna. From1919 onwards, Austria became an insignificant little country, overrun by Adolf Hitler's Third Reich and the disaster of World War II.The Empire had been a conglomerate of different languages, customs and the centre of great food and wine, served with great music. The ancestors, parents and grandparents of the author Susanne Wright experienced these vibrant times, however she was not so lucky as Adolf Hitler made his entry into the city in 1939. Life changed completely and World War II started a year later. The rest is history! The book discusses what happened to the citizens of Vienna and to other parts of south-eastern Europe, based on personal experiences. If you love horses, let alone the Dancing Stallions of Vienna, or like to escape into beautiful mountain scenery, you will find it in these pages.

Fin-de-siecle Vienna has become the glorified icon of innovative modernism in the arts and letters. This detailed account of the suburban life-worlds presents a very different image, one of harsh struggles for subsistence and survival, disparities between the social classes resulting in spatial and cultural segregation."

Fin-de-siècle Vienna remains a central event in the birth of the century's modern culture. Our understanding of what happened in those key decades in Central Europe at the turn of the century has been shaped in the last years by an historiography presided over by Carl Schorske's Fin de Siècle Vienna and the model of the relationship between politics and culture which emerged from his work and that of his followers. Recent scholarship, however, has begun to question the main paradigm of this school, i.e. the "failure of liberalism." This volume reflects not only a whole range of the critiques but also offers alternative ways of understanding the subject, most notably though the concept of "critical modernism" and the integration of previously neglected aspects such as the role of marginality, of the market and the larger Central and European context. As a result this volume offers novel ideas on a subject that is of unending fascination and never fails to captivate the Western imagination.
