Author: Elana Shapira (ed.)Between 1900 and 1933, many Viennese writers, artists, theatre directors and psychoanalysts settled in Berlin, playing a key part in the development of m odernism in both cities. The contributions in this volume explore the extent to which a Viennese School developed in Berlin during this period and examine the role of those participating in cultural transfer between Vienna and Berlin, including designers like Friedl Dicker-Brandeis and Emil Orlik.Also included are writers such as Vicki Baum und Felix Salten, people from the world of theater such as Elisabeth Bergner and Max Reinhardt, and scientists like Sigmund Freud and Otto Neurath. Through innovation, they transformed their self-image as ‘outsiders’ into artistic freedom and social utopia. ISBN 9783689241773.
