Ernst Bruckmuller

Initially published in 1984, this is a revised translation into English and provides an informative Afterword by Lowell A Bangerter (Professor of German, University of Wyoming) of a seminal and scholarly work that combines historical analysis, social research, and a broad survey of the unique culture forces and politics that have shaped present-day Austria. Individual chapters address controversies, myths, stereotypes, the wide variety of ethnic groups, and more. The Austrian Nation is thoughtfully recommended as being a seminal and ground breaking study of a European nation.
