Hardcover. Condición: Very good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very good. xxiv, 327, [1] pages. Illustrations. Footnotes. Chronology. Bibliography. Index. Translated from the German Der Wiener Kongress in Augenzeugenbrichtern, 1965, by Karl Rauch Verlag GmbH Dusseldorf. From letters, journals, newspaper articles, and official repo…rts, a compelling chronicle of what really happened is constructed. Hilde Spiel (19 October 1911 - 30 November 1990) (pseudonyms: Grace Hanshaw and Jean Lenoir) was an Austrian writer and journalist who received numerous awards and honors. She studied philosophy at the University of Vienna, under Moritz Schlick. From 1933 to 1935 she worked at the Industrial Psychological Research Centre at the University of Vienna; in 1933 she wrote her first two novels, Kati auf der Brücke and Verwirrung am Wolfgangsee. In 1936 emigrated to London as a result of the rise of Nazism. Hilde Spiel became a British subject, and from 1944 she contributed regularly to the New Statesman magazine. On 30/31 January 1946, wearing British army uniform, she flew to Vienna in a military aircraft, as war correspondent for the New Statesman. Hilde Spiel was a member of the Austrian PEN Centre, and its general secretary from 1966 to 1971. Derived from a Kirkus review: Never before or after these post-Napoleonic negotiations in Vienna was diplomacy such a gay and splendid affair. Hilde Spiel's collection of memoirs and letters shows the unofficial side of this Congress, where a bruised and brooding Europe came to collect, and, above all, to divert itself. The editor breaks down the local scenes into pictures of the city, the social events, and the people, with intimate selections notable for their vitality and their surprisingly frequent irony. This would make a fine companion piece to a more diplomatic study of the Congress. The book's organization has a rather pronounced fondness for biography. These accounts are informative, in line with the editor's convincingly documented conviction that the Congress itself was more pleasure than business. This was the Congress that danced, and, in a worthwhile sense, this book is the dance-card. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing thus.
