Autorenporträt

Arthur Schnitzler (15 May 1862 - 21 October 1931) was an Austrian author and dramatist. He is considered one of the most significant representatives of the Viennese Modernism. Schnitzler's works, which include psychological dramas and narratives, looked beneath the surface of turn-of-the-century Viennese bourgeois life, making him a sharp and stylistically conscious chronicler of Viennese society around 1900.
