This study examines the late narrative works of the Austrian writer Arthur Schnitzler (1862-1931), and places them in the context of the dominant political questions of the time. Because Schnitzler located these works in the time and settings of the Hapsburg Monarchy, many critics have overlooked the possibility that they provide veiled references to the establishment of democratic institutions in interwar Austria. Dr. Tweraser combines material from primary sources (for example Schnitzler's unpublished diaries from 1922 to 1931) with an overview of the First Republic, to support his twin arguments that Schnitzler thought deeply about the political aspects of everyday life and applied this knowledge to the construction of his works; and that the First Republic had elements of continuity with the monarchy. Felix Tweraser is assistant professor of German at Idaho State University, Pocatello, Idaho.
