Comical Modernity: Popular Humour and the Transformation of Urban Space in Late Nineteenth Century Vienna - Austrian and Habsburg Studies
Heidi Hakkarainen
Comical Modernity looks at the years between 1857–1890, a period of dramatic urban renewal within Vienna during which the city’s rapidly changing face was a popular topic in publications. This book shows how humor provided access to understanding modernity in an era of radical change, thus broadening our understanding of the cultural history of nineteenth-century Vienna.
