Fin de siècle Vienna as the Hot Center of Modernity
Mario Turkalj
Sažetak
In this paper, the author examines the potential preconditions that enabled the almost simultaneous emergence of a significant number of intellectuals and the development of modern thought, culture and politics in Vienna at the turn of the 20th century. In addition to the theses of Carl E. Schorske and Steven Beller, the two authors who had previously dealt with the same subject, the educational system of the second half of the 19th century and the uncommon social roundedness are examined as the Viennese peculiarities of the time period. Given that the emergence of a large number of intellectuals simultaneously in the same place was not unprecedented in history, the example of fin de siècle Vienna also seeks to apply the so-called concept of „hot center“ taken from sociology.
