While the end of the US's civil war marked a boom in US tourism in
Europe, Austria's own civil war in 1934 both curtailed American
tourism in Austria and marked a small, but important, wave of
Austrian emigration to the US. The essays in this volume explore
the ways Austrian-born immigrants in those years defined their own
identities as American citizens; how they interpreted, performed,
and profited from "American" modernity at home; and how their work
- as immigrating authors, film makers, and musicians - impacted
mainstream culture in the US, illuminating often overlooked
connections, not only between Austria and America, but also between
Austrians and Americans. (Series: American Studies in Austria -
Vol. 14)
