  • My Rössl AUTUMN/WINTER 2020-2021 AUTUMN/WINTER LEGENDARY
    english My Rössl AUTUMN/WINTER 2020-2021 LEGENDARY. Legendary: Peter Alexander as head waiter Leopold in the cult comedy ‘The White Horse Inn.’ Congenial: Waltraut Haas as resolute and smart Rössl hostess Josepha Vogelhuber. Overwhelmingly beautiful: Lake Wolfgangsee with all its possibilities for recreation, relaxation and exercise. Majestic: The mountains with unforgettable views down to the lakes. A gift from heaven: The fresh and heal- thy air – breathe deeply again and again. Typically Austrian: The warm hospitality, the culinary delights, the relaxed cosiness, the gentle Alpine pastures, the great hi- king and winter experiences. In a word: Legendary. Experience the good life at the Weisses Rössl at Lake Wolfgangsee. 1 FOR MY RÖSSL GUESTS Dearest Rössl guests, there was already so much that I had wanted to tell you when we started “My Rössl” one year ago. I have so much to share about festivals at the Rössl and the year of legends at the Lake Wolfgangsee. Then a little virus came along that changed the whole world. What you now hold in your hands is our lifeblood. After all, on some days all we have left is our belief that the legendary Weisses Rössl, which has existed for over 500 years, will continue to do so for a long time to come. Our confidence is thanks to you and all of our guests. I would be remiss in not expressing my gratitude at this stage for your loyalty. Thank you to all of you who have been with us at Lake Wolf- gangsee these past weeks and finally gave us the opportunity to bring joy to people.

Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Advisor: Dr. Christopher Browning Reader: Dr. Konrad Jarausch Reader: Dr. Lloyd Kramer Reader: Dr. Michael Hunt Reader: Dr. Terence McIntosh ©2007 Kevin Mason ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Kevin Mason: Building an Unwanted Nation: The Anglo-American Partnership and Austrian Proponents of a Separate Nationhood, 1918-1934 (Under the direction of Dr. Christopher Browning) This project focuses on American and British economic, diplomatic, and cultural ties with Austria, and particularly with internal proponents of Austrian independence. Primarily through loans to build up the economy and diplomatic pressure, the United States and Great Britain helped to maintain an independent Austrian state and prevent an Anschluss or union with Germany from 1918 to 1934. In addition, this study examines the minority of Austrians who opposed an Anschluss . The three main groups of Austrians that supported independence were the Christian Social Party, monarchists, and some industries and industrialists. These Austrian nationalists cooperated with the Americans and British in sustaining an unwilling Austrian nation. Ultimately, the global depression weakened American and British capacity to practice dollar and pound diplomacy, and the popular appeal of Hitler combined with Nazi Germany’s aggression led to the realization of the Anschluss .

Travel at your own pace, to stop and relax or explore secure in the knowledge that your room is waiting for you, your bags have gone ahead and the river is your guide The trail passes through towns and villages along an undulating route, crisscrossing the River Danube as you go. There is a well-graded and signposted path along the hillsides, through woods and forest often framed by mountains, with ascents well-rewarded by picturesque lookouts with spectacular views.
