This comprehensive handbook, edited by Christoph Jürgensen, Wolfgang Lukas, and Michael Scheffel, explores the life, work, and impact of Arthur Schnitzler, an influential Austrian playwright and author associated with the Jung Wien literary movement. The book delves into various aspects of Schnitzler's oeuvre, including his plays, novels, short stories, poems, aphorisms, and medical writings, as well as his thematic exploration of modernity, gender, and taboo subjects like sexuality and death. The handbook addresses Schnitzler's reception and influence across different regions, including Europe, the USA, and China, and provides insights into adaptations of his works in films, radio plays, and music. Aimed at scholars and students of German literature and cultural studies, it offers a valuable resource for understanding Schnitzler's contribution to literature and his lasting legacy.
