Youth in Vienna

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jugend in Wien is the title of Arthur Schnitzler's autobiography , which he mainly worked out between 1915 and 1918 under the title “Life and Resonance, Work and Reverberation”. It was published posthumously in 1968 by Heinrich Schnitzler , the author's son and Therese Nickl. The period covered extends from birth in 1862 and ends in 1889. Youth in Vienna ends before the time when Schnitzler became a successful writer. He himself had planned to continue the period covered until 1900, but never realized this.
