Vienna at the end of last century. The limits of the historic example, Michael Pollak.
The cultural flowering of Vienna at the end of the 19th century fascinates many historians. They try to elucidate the apparent contradiction between the political decline of the Empire, undermined by the powerlessness of authoritarianism as of liberalism, ready to sink under the shock of the First world war, and the extraordinary artistic, literary, and philosophic flowering of its capital. Searching for their cultural identity, writers, journalists, and artists contributed to the glow and influence of a nation which was playing a lesser economic and diplomatic role. Is it proper to use this historical case to make a parallel with situations which are different in time and space, such as the United States in the 1970s? In history, what are the limits of historic example ? Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
