Can the Austrian state maintain its commitment to a comprehensive social security system with rising costs and a troubling national debt? There are no simple solutions to any of these problems However, Austrians would well to remember that their society has traditionally flourished when it is at its most cosmopolitan, welcoming, and curious Mozart, Wittgenstein, and Freud all had a vigorous intellectual relationship with the world beyond Austria’s borders, and many of the talents who so enriched Austria’s culture were originally foreigners to its soil CH.WN.Aus.zBM.Final.q 4/9/02 11:20 AM Page 99 Facts at a Glance Land and People Official Name Capital and Seat of Government Other Major Cities Language Area Population

introduction to Austria as part of its Country Survey series, available both in print (Washington: U.S Government Printing Office, 1994) and on the World Wide Web (lcweb2.loc.gov/frd/cs/attoc.html) Other useful websites full of information include the Austria Café (www.austria-cafe.com/) and the Republic of Austria’s own English-language homepage (www.austria.gv.at/e/oesterreich/index.htm) The best general history of Austria in print is probably Gordon BrookShepherd’s The Austrians: A Thousand-Year Odyssey (New York: Carroll and Graf, 1996) An interesting book on one of Austria’s most important rulers is Alan Warwick Palmer’s Twilight of the Habsburgs: The Life and Times of Emperor Franz Josef (New York: Grove Press, 1995), while What Life Was Like: At Empire’s End: Austro-Hungarian Empire 1848–1918 (New York: Time-Life Books, 2000) is a good introduction to the period for younger readers William M Johnston’s The Austrian Mind: An Intellectual and Social History 1848–1938 (Berkeley: University of California Press, 1983) provides a useful background to the work of Sigmund Freud and other turn-of-the-20th-century Austrian thinkers Wittgenstein’s Vienna by Allan Janik and Stephen Toulmin (Chicago: Ivan R Dee, 1996) is a challenging read, but it, too, reveals much about the intellectual milieu of the great philosopher Mozart: A Life by Maynard Solomon (New York: HarperCollins, 1996) is a recent and highly praised biography of Austria’s most famous musical son Rolf Toman, Gerald Zugmann, and Achim Bednorz’s Vienna: Art and Architecture (Köhl: Könemann, 1999) is a large and wellillustrated survey of one of the most beautiful cities in Europe Those lucky enough to be visiting Austria will find both Susan Roraff and Julie Krejci’s Culture Shock! Austria (Portland, Ore.: Graphic Arts Center, 2001) and Jonathan Bousfield and Rob Humphreys’ The Rough Guide to Austria (London: Rough Guides, 2001) indispensable Finally, no reading list about Austria would be complete without The Sound of Music: The Making of America’s Favorite Movie by Julia Antopol Hirsch and Robert Wise (New York: McGraw Hill, 1993), which includes information about the real-life von Trapp family Maria von Trapp tells The Story of the Trapp Family Singers in her own words, too (New York: HarperCollins, 2002) 103 CH.WN.Aus.zBM.Final.q 4/9/02 11:20 AM Page 104 Bibliography Bousfield, Jonathan, and Rob Humphreys The Rough Guide to Austria (London: Rough Guides, 2001) Brook-Shepherd, Gordon The Austrians: A Thousand-Year Odyssey (New York: Carroll and Graf, 1996) Encyclopedia Britannica (www.britannica.com/) Fichtner, Paula Historical Dictionary of Austria (Lanham, Md.: Scarecrow Press, 1999) Johnson, Lonnie Introducing Austria: A Short History (Riverside, Calif.: Ariadne Press, 1989) Riemer, Andrew The Habsburg Café (Angus and Robertson, 1993) Roraff, Susan, and Julie Krejci Culture Shock!
