PUBLICATIONS: BOOKS 2015 Vienna's Dreams of Europe: Thinking Beyond the Nation State. London & New York: Bloomsbury (October) Honorable mention: 2016 Book Prize, Center for Austrian Studies (Minneapolis) Katherine Arens’s Vienna’s Dreams of Europe: Culture and Identity beyond the Nation-State covers a vast period of Austrian cultural history—from the Enlightenment to the 1990s—that is usually viewed as one long series of disruptions. Arens looks for continuities instead, and in doing so she is able to define and examine a consistent Austrian identity that gets lost if one takes nation-states and nationalism to be norms. Arens examines Austrian cultural identity without privileging a perspective of the development of German literature and society that has focused on the (German) nation-state. Austrian writers and artists, she shows, have consistently resisted the more typically German belief in drama as a moral institution with writers of genius leading a nation to its destiny. By contrast, Austrians from Sonnenfels to Grillparzer to Nestroy to Hofmannsthal to Schnitzler to the Wiener Gruppe to Handke have grounded their visions in accounts of existing, diverse communities. By grounding her meta-analysis in close and comparative readings of a broad range of texts, Arens creates a solid foundation for the wide-ranging ambitions of her book. Arens’s book is literary history, to be sure, but not in any narrow sense, since it shows how Austrian identity is created through the use of language(s) in public spaces. Hence this study is relevant to broader political, historical, and philosophical questions about what Austria has been and can be.
