His most penetrating analyses include \u003cem\u003eI\u0026gt;Lieutenant Gustl,\u003c\/em\u003e the first stream-of-consciousness novella in German; \u003cem\u003eReigen\u003c\/em\u003e, a devastating cycle of one-acts mapping the social limits of a sexual daisy-chain; and \u003cem\u003eDer Weg ins Freie\u003c\/em\u003e, a novel that combines a love story with a discussion of the roadblocks facing Austria's Jews. Today, his popularity is reflected by new editions and translations and by adaptations for theater, television, and film by artists such as Tom Stoppard and Stanley Kubrick. This book examines Schnitzler reception up to 2000, beginning with the journalistic reception of the early plays. Before being suspended by a decade of Nazism, criticism in the 1920s and 30s emphasized Schnitzler's determinism and decadence. Not until the early 60s was humanist scholarship able to challenge this verdict by pointing out Schnitzler's ethical indictment of impressionism in the late novellas. During the same period, Schnitzler, whom Freud considered his literary \"Doppelgänger,\" was often subjected to Freudian psychoanalytical criticism; but by the 80s, scholarship was citing his own thoroughgoing objections to such categories. Since the 70s, Schnitzler's remonstrance toward the Austrian establishment has been examined by social historians and feminist critics alike, and the recently completed ten-volume edition of Schnitzler's diary has met with vibrant interest. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardcover\u003cbr\u003e211 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCamden House, 2003\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6.3 x 0.9 x 9.3 inches\u003cbr\u003eISBN 9781571130884\u003cbr\u003eLiterary Criticism\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vendor-unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42009565648,"sku":"9781571130884","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0175\/8594\/products\/Arthur-Schnitzler-and-Twentieth-Century-Criticism_Andrew-C.-Wisely.jpg?v=1591734947"},{"product_id":"dream-story-1","title":"Dream Story","description":"\u003cp\u003eBy Arthur Schnitzler\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCelebrating the range and diversity of Penguin Classics, they take us from snowy Japan to springtime Vienna, from haunted New England to a sun-drenched Mediterranean island, and from a game of chess on the ocean to a love story on the moon.

Und doch ist es nicht der Blick in den Abgrund der Triebwelt, ist es nicht die Schilderung vorgestellter oder vielleicht gar gelebter Orgien, was an dieser Novelle bis heute so schockiert und fasziniert. Es sind auch nicht die Träume, die Albertine und ihr Mann Fridolin sich wechselseitig beichten. Es ist die Erkenntnis, daß kein Traum nur »völlig Traum« ist.
