Danielle Hood

The Viennese Waltz

Decadence and the Decline of Austria's Unconscious

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book shows how over the hundred years between the Vienna Congress and the dissolution of the Empire, the waltz altered from signifier of upper-class artifice-covering with glitz and glamour the poverty and war central to the time-to the link between the three classes, between man and nature, and between Viennese and "Other."
