The Viennese Waltz: Decadence and the Decline of Austria’s Unconscious

By Danielle Hood

This book shows how over the hundred years between the Vienna Congress and the dissolution of the Empire, the waltz altered from signifier of upper-class artifice--covering with glitz and glamour the poverty and war central to the time--to the link between the three classes, between man and nature, and between Viennese and "Other."
