Abstract
The Lipizzaner horses, which have often been understood as living art and
whose performances have been regarded as theatrical displays, are one of the central icons of contemporary Austria. After the fall of the Danube Monarchy, the white horses initially developed into a symbol of an aestheticized Austria, strongly referencing the Monarchy and carrying
an anti-German element. Joseph Roth also made use of this imagery, placing the Lipizzaner horses into the narrative in a very specific way, especially in "Radetzky March" (1932) and "The Tale of the 1002nd Night" (1939). This article analyzes and contextualizes the use of the Lipizzaner motif in these two works by Roth.
