In his review of turn of the century Vienna, historian Carl Schorske wrote of the movement that they “challenged the moralistic stance of nineteenth century literature in favor of sociological truth and psychological – especially sexual – openness.”[1]Hermann Bahr was considered the group’s spokesman. Other members included Arthur Schnitzler, Felix D\u00f6rmann\u00a0[de], Peter Altenberg,  Richard Beer-Hofmann, Felix Salten, Raoul Auernheimer,  Hugo von Hofmannsthal, and Karl Kraus.[2]  Kraus would later distance himself from the group, and in his essay “The Demolished Literature,” written soon after the Caf\u00e9 Griensteidl’s demolition in 1897, he criticized the group and predicted that it “would soon expire for lack of a foyer.”  After the caf\u00e9’s demolition the group (sans Kraus) continued to meet at the nearby Caf\u00e9 Central.[3]Stefan Zweig, in his book The World of Yesterday, eulogized Vienna’s fin de si\u00e8cle coffeehouse culture, where for “the small price of a cup of coffee,” a youth who aspired to intellectuality could “sit for hours on end, discuss, write, play cards, receive his mail, and, above all, [could] go through an unlimited number of newspapers and magazines” in search of news about literary, artistic, or philosophical happenings with which, good-naturedly, to show up his peers:       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4[I]n our constant childish, boastful, and almost sporting ambition we wished to outdo each other in our knowledge of the very latest thing, we found ourselves actually in a sort of constant rivalry for the sensational. If, for example, we discussed Nietzsche, who then was still scorned, one of us would suddenly say with feigned superiority, \u201cBut in the idea of egotism Kierkegaard is superior to him,\u201d and at once we became uneasy: Who is Kierkegaard, whom X knows and of whom we know nothing?\u201d The next day we stormed into the library to look up the books of this time-obscured Danish philosopher, for it was a mark of inferiority not to know some exotic thing that was familiar to someone else. We had a passion to be the first to discover the latest, the newest, the most extravagant, the unusual, which had not yet been dwelt upon at length, particularly by the official literary critics of our daily papers.[4]Members or environment of the group[edit]Peter Altenberg\u00a0[de], n\u00e9 Richard Engl\u00e4nder (1859, Vienna\u20131919, Vienna), writer and poetLeopold Andrian\u00a0[de], n\u00e9 Leopold Freiherr Ferdinand von Andrian zu Werburg\u00a0[de] (1875, Berlin\u20131951, Fribourg), diplomat and writerRaoul Auernheimer\u00a0[de] (1876, Vienna\u20131948, Oakland), jurist and writerHermann (Anastas) Bahr\u00a0[de] (1863, Linz\u20131934, Munich), writer, dramatist and criticRichard Beer-Hofmann\u00a0[de] (1866, Vienna\u20131945, New York), Romancier, dramatist and lyric poetJakob Julius David\u00a0[de] (1859, M\u00e4hrisch Wei\u00dfkirchen (Czech: Hranice na Morav\u011b)\u20131906, Vienna), journalist and writerFelix D\u00f6rmann\u00a0[de],  n\u00e9 Felix Biedermann (1870, Vienna\u20131928, Vienna), writer, librettist and filmproducerFrida Uhl Strindberg (1872, Mondsee\u20131943), writer and translatorPaul Goldmann\u00a0[de] (1865, Breslau\u20131935, Vienna), journalist, publicist, travel writer, theatre critic and translatorHugo von Hofmannsthal\u00a0[de] (1874, Vienna\u20131929, Rodaun), writer, dramatist, lyric poet and librettistKarl Kraus\u00a0[de] (1874, Jitschin\u20131936, Vienna), publicist, satirist, lyric poet, aphorist, dramatist and criticAnton Linder\u00a0[de] (1874, Lemberg\u20131928, Wandsbek), lyric poet, narrative writer, critic and translatorFelix Salten\u00a0[de],  n\u00e9 Siegmund Salzmann (1869, Pest\u20131945), author and criticArthur Schnitzler\u00a0[de] (1862, Leopoldstadt\u20131931, Vienna), narrative writer and dramatistRichard Specht\u00a0[de] (1870, Vienna\u20131932), lyricist, dramatist, musicologist and writerJakob Wassermann\u00a0[de] (1873, F\u00fcrth\u20131934, Altaussee), writerStefan Zweig\u00a0[de] (1881, Vienna\u20131942, Petr\u00f3polis), writerReferences[edit]External links[edit]     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/young-vienna-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Young Vienna – Wikipedia"}}]}]
