Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Second Printing Thus. 2001. 189pp. Frontispiece portrait of the author. Very good condition with no inscriptions. "This novel from the great Austrian poet, dramatist, essayist and librettist, Hugo von Hoffmansthal Andreas is a fascinating insight into the work of this renowned author. Andreas is an unfinished and posthumously-published novel of violence and naivety, pathos and melancholy. Set in the eighteenth century, it tells the story of a young Viennese aristocrat who intends to travel alone to Venice as the first stage of his 'Grand Tour'; On his journey, he acquires an unsavory servant who unleashes a trail of destruction and violence, which taints and corrupts Andreas' first experience of love. Andreas' loss of innocence takes place in the misty alleyways and gloomy palaces of La Serenissima, whose masked inhabitants confuse and entice him, the women either madonnas or whores indistinguishable behind their masks. Hugo von Hoffmansthal (1874-1929) was a writer of poems and plays from a young age. As a teenager, he met Stefan George, and had several poems published in his journal Blätter für die Kunst. He went on to study in Vienna, and along with Peter Altenberg and Arthur Schnitzler, was a member of the avant-garde group Young Vienna (Jung Wien). He went on to write the libretti for several operas composed by Richard Strauss, including Elektra and Der Rosenkavalier. During the First World War, the conservative Hoffmansthal wrote speeches and articles praising the war effort. He was devastated by the post-war dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but continued with his work, founding the Salzburg Festival in 1925, along with Max Reinhardt. In 1939 his son committed suicide, and two days later Hoffmansthal died of a stroke.".…

paperback. Condition: Fine. Collana Biblioteca Universale Rizzoli. Brossura editoriale di pagine 57 con illustrazioni in nero nel testo. Carte un po' ingiallite, testo originale a fronte. Introduzione di Claudio Magris. Traduzione di Marga Vidusso Feriani. Opera in ottime condizioni. Spedizione in 24 ore dalla conferma dell'ordine. La Vienna fin-de-siècle offre uno spettacolo davvero straordinario: all'ombra della declinante monarchia asburgica, vivono e lavorano i più opposti talenti, le personalità più contrastanti, da Johann Strauss e Lehar a Freud, Schònberg, Musil. Sotto la maschera frivola dell'operetta, comunque, i segni della fine e della decadenza non sono meno lancinanti che nelle sinfonie di Mahler o nelle poesie di Rilke. Hofmannsthal, a diciassette anni, s'impose a questa ricchissima società letteraria e culturale e divenne ben presto la voce più alta del decadentismo austriaco, alimentato in lui, oltre che dal particolare momento storico, dalla raffinatezza estenuata delle sue aristocratiche tradizioni familiari. La Lettera di Lord Chandos (1902) è la testimonianza di una crisi profonda, in cui l'autore, nelle vesti di un immaginario lord e scrittore inglese, confessa e analizza la propria incapacità di dominare il pensiero e il linguaggio, di arginare la frantumazione del soggetto quale principio ordinatore della realtà interiore ed esteriore: problema cruciale e irrisolto di tutta la letteratura del Novecento europeo.
