Matthew Rampley’s The Vienna School of Art History is the first
book in over seventy-five years to study in depth and in context
the practices of art history from 1847, the year the first teaching
position in the discipline was created, to 1918, the collapse of
Austria-Hungary. It traces the emergence of art history as a
discipline, the establishment of norms of scholarly inquiry, and
the involvement of art historians in wider debates about the
cultural and political identity of the monarchy. The so-called
Vienna School plays the central role in the study, but Rampley also
examines the formation of art history elsewhere in Austria-Hungary.
Located in the Habsburg imperial capital, Vienna art historians
frequently became entangled in debates that were of importance to
art historians elsewhere in the Empire, and Rampley pays particular
attention to these areas of overlapping interest. He also analyzes
the methodological innovations for which the Vienna School was well
known. Rampley focuses most fully, however, on the larger political
and ideological context of the practice of art
history—particularly the way in which art-historical debates
served as proxies for wider arguments over the political, social,
and cultural life of the Habsburg Empire.
