Infos

Satiricized by Strauss II to highlight the deceptive aristocratic class, under Schoenberg, Mahler, and Webern's pens the waltz became the pivot between the conscious and unconscious, forcing a paralytic "e;second state"e; analogous with the stagnation of the Habsburg Empire. The Viennese Waltz shows how, between 1864 - 1928, the waltz altered from signifier of upper-class artificeto the link between man and nature and between Viennese and "e;Other."e; Hood wields the Freudian concepts of the uncanny and the doppelganger to explain this revolution from the simple signification of a dance to the psychological anxiety of a subject's place in society.
