Produktbeschreibung

"The Road to the Open" (Der Weg ins Freie) by Arthur Schnitzler centers on Georg von Wergenthin, a young Jewish artist living in Vienna. The novel unfolds in the context of a fin-de-siècle society marked by cultural and social upheaval. Georg von Wergenthin is an aspiring artist who struggles with his identity and place in society. As he navigates the complexities of his Jewish heritage and the pervasive anti-Semitism of Vienna, Georg faces a series of personal and professional challenges. The novel paints a vivid picture of the artistic and intellectual circles of the time. Georg's romantic relationships play a significant role in the story, reflecting his internal conflicts and emotional turmoil. His interactions with various characters reveal the moral rigidity and hypocrisies of the bourgeois society. Through these relationships, Schnitzler delves into themes of love, infidelity, and personal freedom. The novel critiques the cultural decadence of the era, portraying a society in decline and exploring the existential concerns of individuals seeking meaning and self-fulfillment. Georg's journey is ultimately one of self-discovery, as he seeks to reconcile his personal desires with societal expectations and the constraints imposed by his environment.
