Our Famous Guest: Mark Twain in Vienna

By Carl Dolmetsch and Carl Domeltsch

Fin-de-siecle Vienna was a special place at a special time, a city in which the decadent abandon of the era commingled with dark forebodings of the coming century. The artistic and intellectual ferment of the Austrian capital was extraordinary and included Sigmund Freud, Gustav Mahler, Arthur Schnitzler, Theodor Herzl, Gustav Klimt and Ludwig Wittgenstein - but a few of figures who lived and worked there. And, in September 1897, into the very midst of this milieu, came Mark Twain.
