englischKarl Kraus called Austria the “testing facility for the apocalypse”, but also noted that “the streets of Vienna are paved with culture; the streets of other cities with asphalt”. Hugo von Hofmannsthal dismissed the idea that there was an Austrian form of literature as fiction. In his opinion, there was only German literature, into which the works of Austrian writers were subsumed. In this respect, Austria is therefore not a completely straightforward subject. What remains indisputable, however, is that Austria became one of the trendsetters in German-speaking literature and culture from the 19th century onwards. The book ‘Topos Österreich’ (Topos Austria) thus contains studies from the field of literary and cultural studies which focus on modern Austrian literature.
