Briefwechsel (1914-1931)

von , , ,

The romance between Georges’s „favorite disciple,“ Friedrich Gundolf, and the beautiful emancipated Jewish woman Elisabeth Salomon, was a scandal in George’s circle of friends and acquaintances. Their correspondence provides an inside view of their relationship, which played out in Heidelberg, Vienna, and Rome – against the backdrop of the First World War, the Spartacist uprising, hyperinflation, Viennese psychoanalysis, and Italian fascism.
