Description
Vienna is Different: Jewish Writers in Austria from the Fin de Siècle to the Present by Hillary Hope Herzog explores the complex relationship between Austrian-Jewish writers and the city of Vienna. From fin-de-siècle culture to the present day, this book assesses how Vienna's significance evolved in the imaginations of Jewish writers. The author examines how Austrian-Jewish writers experienced both acceptance and exclusion in Vienna, feeling "unheimlich heimisch" (eerily at home) in the city. This unique perspective reveals a century-long pattern of living with tension and contradiction in Vienna. Through its historical analysis, this book sheds new light on the cultural and literary history of Austrian-Jewish writing, making it an essential read for anyone interested in the subject.
