Brussels 1900 Vienna : networks in literature visual and performing arts and other cultural practices This co edited volume offers new insights into the complex relations between Brussels and Vienna in the turn of the century period (1880 1930). Through archival research and critical methods of cultural transfer as a network it contributes to the study of Modernism in all its complexity. Seventeen chapters analyse the interconnections between new developments in literature (Verhaeren Musil Zweig) drama (Maeterlinck Schnitzler Hofmannsthal) visual arts (Minne Khnopff Masereel Child Art) architecture (Hoffmann Van de Velde) music (Schönberg Ysaÿe Kreisler Kolisch) as well as psychoanalysis (Varendonck Anna Freud) and café culture. Austrian and Belgian artists played a crucial role within the complex rich and conflictual international networks of people practices institutions and metropoles in an era of political social and technological change and intense internationalization.
