Abstract:
By isolating the years between the World Wars and examining formative events in both Vienna and the provinces, this book demonstrates that an intensified marking of people, places, and events as 'Jewish' accompanied the crises occurring in the wake of Austria-Hungary's collapse, leaving profound effects on Austria's cultural legacy.
