The new seminar series 'Vienna Tales on Page and Screen', brings together short stories by well-known literary figures and films on contemporary themes
made in or set in Vienna. Based on selected stories from the book Vienna Tales, an
anthology of short prose set in Vienna translated by Deborah Holmes (Oxford University Press, 2014; ISBN 978-0-19-966979-0), the seminars will provide an English introduction to the texts and give participants the opportunity to watch great film classics as
well as recent Austrian releases.
Next week’s SEMINAR SPECIAL
will focus on a short text by Arthur Schnitzler, “Out for a Walk” (Spaziergang)
and a PHOTO SHOW “SCHNITZLER’S VIENNA” by photographer Peter Steinsberg.
This event is the last in the series for this academic year. The series
will continue in Autumn 2016.
All welcome. Participation is free. The event will be held
in English and texts can be provided as pdfs upon request (please email [log in to unmask]).
