TraumLeben
Reviewed by: TraumLeben: Traumpoetiken der Wiener Moderne by Irma Duraković Vincent Kling Irma Duraković, TraumLeben: Traumpoetiken der Wiener Moderne. Würzburg: Königshausen & Neumann, 2023. 236 pp. The title of Irma Duraković's TraumLeben may mislead, because it seems to promise a full range of discussion about Traumpoetiken around 1900, implying a comprehensive latitudinal study. The book confines itself to three [End Page 113] writers, howeve…

Fayetteville, NY: Bitter Oleander, 2017. 128 pp. Clichés grow entrenched when they capture some truth; accordingly, the perennial indictment of translators as traitors rightly acknowledges that no translation, however skilled, can replicate all the qualities of the original.Failure…

H. G. Adler
Reviewed by: H. G. Adler: A Life in Many Worlds by Peter Filkins Vincent Kling Peter Filkins, H. G. Adler: A Life in Many Worlds. Oxford: Oxford UP, 2019. 424 pp. To shape the raw materials of a life into a biography always calls for skill in structural arrangement and thematically informed narration.

Göttingen: Wallstein, 2019. 436 pp. Readers looking for an introduction to Hugo von Hofmannsthal's Der Schwierige will not find it in Michael Woll's volume.

Hans Lebert
Reviewed by: Hans Lebert: Eine biographische Silhouette by Jürgen Egyptien Vincent Kling Jürgen Egyptien, Hans Lebert: Eine biographische Silhouette. Vienna: Sonderzahl, 2019. 240 pp. For three decades, Jürgen Egyptien has focused on the work of Hans Lebert (1919–1993), and his hundredth-birthday commemoration, honoring a novelist nearly forgotten, could not have been written by anyone else.

Off the Tracks by Inge Merkel
Reviewed by: Off the Tracks by Inge Merkel Vincent Kling Inge Merkel, Off the Tracks. Translation by Dennis McCort, afterword by Gert K. Schneider. Riverside, CA: Ariadne, 2016. 255 pp. Inge Merkel should be the patron saint of the thousands who tell themselves that they'll write a book someday.

Munich: Wilhelm Fink, 2011. 237 pp. It would have been out of character for the doyen of Broch scholars to allow 2011, the year of a double observance—Broch was born in 1886 and died in 1951—to pass without at least one significant contribution. …

Vienna: Picus, 2014. 327 pp. This engaging anthology is notable for what it intentionally leaves out as well as for what it includes, for the standpoint it advocates and for the one it deprecates. It is a continuation of, and also a deliberate contrast to,…
Schriftkritik und Bewegungslust

Würzburg: Königshausen & Neumann, 2013. 223 pp. The struggle recorded in the Chandos Letter to break out of solipsism should be proof enough that Hofmannsthal was anything but a complicit aesthete in a decaying society, but Karl Kraus's m…
Schubert’s Winter Journey
Reviewed by: Schubert’s Winter Journey: Anatomy of an Obsession by Ian Bostridge Vincent Kling Ian Bostridge, Schubert’s Winter Journey: Anatomy of an Obsession. New York: Knopf, 2015. 504 pp. Several acclaimed musicians have demonstrated mastery in scholarship parallel to their better-known work.

Wallace, Embracing Democracy: Hermann Broch, Politics, and Exile, 1918 to 1951. Bern: Peter Lang, 2014. 268 pp. Any carefully developed scholarly study merits a full reading in detail, but the introductory chapter of Wallace’s book (1–26) has the practical merit of presenting with enough cogency and focus the points expa…

Demonic History
Reviewed by: Demonic History: From Goethe to the Present by Kirk Wetters Vincent Kling Kirk Wetters, Demonic History: From Goethe to the Present. Evanston: Northwestern UP, 2014. 250pp. Flippantly but not inaccurately stated, Wetters’s study is one sign that the demons are loose again. The topic of the demon and the operating energies of the demonic periodically show up on the literary radar and then vanish again. Current interest is evident not …

Innsbruck: Haymon, 2015. 552 pp. Discussion and criticism of most cultural figures generally proceed along settled lines of debate, so that in assessing the recent upsurge of interest in Stefan Zweig, for example, it isn't necessary to reinvent the wheel.
