CU 321 - Austria in Text and Film I: From the Turn of the Century to 1945

The "four states of Austria" from 1900 to 1945 will be discussed. How did the transitions from one political system to the other affect the country, her citizens, and her arts? We will try to find answers to the problem of an Austrian identity: Did it exist in all the ethnic divergence of the Habsburg monarchy and the First Republic of Austria, or was it shaped by the historic events of the "First Republic?"
