Description

Explore the complex history of Austrian ethnology with this academic volume from Routledge. This book examines the development of Volkskunde and its troubled past throughout the 20th century. It provides a detailed look at the influence of the Viennese Mythological School and the long-standing debate between the Ritualist and Mythologist branches that shaped the field from the 1920s through the post-war era. Readers will gain insight into the work of key figures Richard Wolfram and Karl Haiding. By analyzing their research and placing it within the historical context of Austrian ethnology before, during, and after the war years, this text offers a deep understanding of how these academic shifts occurred.
