description

The aim of this article is to present the concept of "Europamüdigkeit" described by the German-Jewish writer Arnold Zweig (1887-1968) in his early work. The analysed novella titled "Quartettsatz von Schönberg" from 1913 is focused on a young emigrant who is exhausted with the European culture and encounters the music of Viennese modernism, bringing a totally new perception of the old continent.
