"Karl Kraus (1874-1936) was, with Freud, Schnitzler, Wittgenstein, Schoenberg, Kokoschka and others, part of the outstanding generation of writers and artists that distinguished late Habsburg Vienna ... His polemical journal 'Die Fackel' takes the culture of 'fin-de'siecle' Vienna as its starting point and culminates in a vision of the collapse of European civilization. The aim of this book is to make that vision more comprehensible." [Shipping at cost]. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Clear Brodart Covering.
