With photos by Peter Steinsberg (Vienna)

The new seminar series 'Vienna Tales on Page and Screen', brings together short stories by well-known literary figures such as Arthur Schnitzler and films on contemporary themes made in or set in Vienna. Based on selected stories from the book Vienna Tales, an anthology of short prose set in Vienna translated by Deborah Holmes (Oxford University Press, 2014; ISBN 978-0-19-966979-0), the seminars will provide an English introduction to the texts and give participants the opportunity to watch great film classics as well as recent Austrian releases.

Next week’s  SEMINAR SPECIAL includes an introduction of a short text by Arthur Schnitzler, “Out for a Walk” (Spaziergang) and a PHOTO SHOW of “SCHNITZLER’S VIENNA” by photographer PETER STEINSBERG.
