  • Arnold Hauser and the Retreat from Marxism
    ON CREATIVITY AND THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE SUPRANATIONAL STATE Barry SMITH and Wolfgang GRASSL Summary Building on the writings of Wittgenstein on rule-following and deviance, Kristóf Nyíri advanced a theory of creativity as consisting in a fusion of conflicting rules or disciplines. Only such fusion can produce something that is both intrinsically new and yet capable of being apprehended by and passed on to a wider community. Creativity, on this view, involves not the breaking of rules, or the deliberate cultivation of deviant social habits, but rather the acceptance of enriched systems of rules, the adherence to which presupposes simultaneous immersion in disciplines hitherto seen as being unrelated. The paper presents a demonstration of the fruitfulness of this theory by means of an account of some of the political, cultural and intellectual peculiarities of the Habsburg Monarchy. Philosophers of various persuasions have at different times attempted to pin down the nature and peculiarities of large-scale social and political formations. The Greeks concerned themselves with the peculiarities of monarchies, republics, oligarchies, and of course with the nature of the polis, and German thinkers worried themselves philo- sophically about the oppositions of culture and civilization, society and community, nation and state. Philosophical consideration of supranational or imperial orders, in contrast, and in particular of that imperial order which was variously called Austria-Hungary, the Austrian Empire, the Habsburg Empire, or the Danube Monarchy, has been much less common. And where it has occurred it has been associated with a marked lack of sympathy and enthusiasm, often taking on the form of a mere apologia for something which, in a better world, would be more properly organized.

  • Ursula Hemetek, Institut Für Volksmusikforschung, University of Vienna, Austria
    Music of Minorities in Austria – A “National Heritage”? Ursula Hemetek, Institut für Volksmusikforschung, University of Vienna, Austria Introduction The above piece is Jutro rano, a traditional love song of the Burgenland Croats, one of the minorities in Austria. In it, a young man sings in front of his beloved’s window. When sung, the melody indeed sounds very Austrian, at least from the historical perspective, because its first part has been used in the Imperial Anthem composed by Joseph Haydn in 1797 for the Austrian Emperor Franz II: “Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser.” I use this song to underline the aspect of “national heritage,” for if any music can be interpreted as national, which I generally doubt, it might be anthems. This anthem served until 1918, and the melody has been used since then in several occasions. It also definitely has a strong connection with an Austrian minority of today, the Burgenland Croats mentioned above. Joseph Haydn lived in that part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, today known as the Burgenland, where Croats, Hungarians, Gypsies, Slovaks, and Jews also lived. And of course he was inspired by those musical surroundings. Up to the present day this most eastern region of Austria remains very multicultural. An obvious question in connection with the anthem’s melody is: Who used the melody first, Joseph Haydn or the Croats; who borrowed from whom? This question is the subject of an ongoing debate, and arguments on both sides are convincing. But I do not think it is important at all. Joseph Haydn lived in truly multicultural surroundings, which of course inspired him, and he composed in the tradition of the Wiener Klassik, a style in which we find many elements of traditional music.
