Description | Hugo von Hofmannsthal. Although this is often perceived as aesthetically oriented writer, he dealt - with the literary and journalistic way - with the Austrian society; In doing so he focused his attention on the weighty role of the army, whose significance had an existential significance for the society of that time. In order to emphasize this importance, he published war propaganda in the Neue Freie Presse during the First World War. A look at these publications should make it clear that here are ideas and perspectives of a heroic society. |
