These essays deal with the interaction between culture and politics during the period of the Austrian Corporate State, the five years preceding the Anschluss in 1938. The contributions show that no aspect of literary and cultural life remained unchanged by the National Socialist infiltration that took place in the 1930s. All Austrian writers, publishers, theater directors, and film makers had to decide whether to face economic penalty by opposing National Socialism and being blacklisted in Germany or to seek financial advantage by joining the Nazi movement. Jewish writers and political activists had no choice but were forced to flee into exile or face imprisonment in concentration camps after the Anschluss.

Photos of wars figure heavily in this volume, from the brutal fighting in the Dolomites during WWI to National Socialism, concentration camps and the air war during WW II. Postwar life and the American presence in Austria will be documented from the end of the war to the postwar occupation - seen through the lenses of U.S. star photographer Yoichi Okamoto. Cartoons will be analyzed and the role of exhibits in modern public diplomacy.

Excerpt from The House of Austria in the Thirty Years' War: Two Lectures, With Notes and Ill Illustrations It is well that princes should read history; but it is not well that history should be written for them by their servants. In the century and the country of the Thirty Years War, the historical author, even if his identity was not lost among the crowd of menial existences of the courts, well knew for what and for whom he plied his pen. Even to those whose own tastes or beliefs induced them to contribute their aid towards collecting or confusing the memorials of the times, there seemed to have been given, together with their semi-official task, a semi-official conscience, - which conducted their blindfold march along a tortuous path, but to no doubtful goal. As a result they have left to posterity much, which (in Bolingbroke's phrase) it may neglect entirely, not only without detriment, but with advantage. Since those days of abasement, great and salutary. changes have supervened. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
