The study of ethnology or 'Volkskunde' in Austria has had a
troubled past. Through most of the 20th century it was under the
influence of the so-called Viennese 'Mythological School' and the
controversy between the two opposing branches, the 'Ritualist' and
the 'Mythologists', set much of the agenda from the 1920s until
long after the World War ended in 1945. The volume examines two
Austrian characters, Richard Wolfram and Karl Haiding, and the
impact of their research and sets them in the context of Austrian
ethnology before, during and after the war years. The book
concludes by examining the present day ethnological outlook in the
country.
