German Expressionism collection, 1909-1961 (majority 1916-1934)

Title: German Expressionism collection

The literary movement German Expressionism generally dates from around 1905 to 1945. It arose as a reaction against materialism, complacent bourgeois prosperity, rapid mechanization and urbanization, and the domination of the family within pre-World War I European society. It was the dominant literary movement in Germany during and immediately after World War I. The authors explored in their works the predicaments of representative symbolic types rather than of fully developed individualized characters. Expressionist poetry was similarly nonreferential and sought an ecstatic, hymn like lyricism that would have considerable associative power. This condensed, stripped-down poetry, utilizing strings of nouns and a few adjectives and infinitive verbs, eliminated narrative and description to capture the essence of feeling. The dominant themes of Expressionist verse were horror at urban life and apocalyptic visions of the collapse of civilization. This collection of approximately sixty individual items includes correspondence and manuscripts, of both prose and poetry, by forty individuals including Leonhard Frank, George Groz, Oskar Kokoscha, Else Lasker-Schuler, Ernst Toller, and Franz Werfel.

Karl Kraus Collection MS 470., 1880-1962, 1930-1962

Title: Karl Kraus Collection 1880-1962 1930-1962

Known for his bitingly satirical poetry, plays, and essays, the Austrian writer Karl Kraus was born in what is today Jičin, Czech Republic. At the age of three, Kraus and his family moved to Vienna, where he remained for the rest of his life. He is best known as editor of the literary journal (The Torch), which he founded in 1899 and to which he was the sole contributor from 1911 until his death in 1936. Gabriel Rosenrauch, a lawyer from Chernivtsi, Ukraine, collected materials about Kraus and his career, including newspaper articles and essays in German, Yiddish, Hebrew, English, and French written between 1914 and 1962. A few of these were written by well-known authors such as Hermann Hesse and Werner Kraft. The collection features personal photographs of Kraus from throughout his life, as well as photographs of his apartment in Vienna. Also of note are the indexes to Kraus' journal that were composed by Rosenrauch, whose personal correspondence with Kraus archivist Helene Kann is part of the collection. Die Fackel Die Fackel

Kokoschka, Oskar, 1886-1980. Correspondence with Alma Mahler, 1912-1964.

Title: Correspondence with Alma Mahler, 1912-1964.

Oskar Kokoschka and Alma Mahler met in April of 1912. The major part of the correspondence is concentrated in the period from immediately following their meeting in 1912 until the summer of 1915, by which time their romantic relationship had come to an end (these items exist as typed transcripts made at the direction of Alma Mahler); Kokoschka reported for military duty in Jan. 1915, and Alma Mahler married Walter Gropius later that year. After that time there are 8 additional letters from Kokoschka in the period 1916 to 1922 (transcripts); 1 letter dated 1957; 2 telegrams (1916 and 1964); and 6 postcards. Kokoschka speaks often of his feelings for and perception of Alma, sometimes in very poetic language (a particularly striking example is his letter of 3. Jan. 1913 in which he speculates that he and Alma have a similar relationship to nature, and that Alma's inner music lies in the natural movements of the landscape). In addition, external events are sometimes registered, including the production of a play at the Freie Volksbühne (letter of July 1912); his work on portraits and other commissions (his drawings of Karl Kraus are mentioned several times); and his paintings of himself and Alma (including Die Windsbraut). 3 communications in 1914 contain poetry, as he was beginning to write Wehmann und Windsbraut. In the letters to the end of 1914, Alma's daughter, Anna Mahler ("Gucki"), is frequently mentioned, reflecting Kokoschka's interactions with her; and Henriette Amalie ("Lilly") Lieser, a close friend of Alma's at that time, is also mentioned a number of times. The letters in 1915 refer, on occasion, to Kokoschka's life in the military. The transcripts of letters (1912-1922) include explanatory annotations in Alma Mahler's hand. In a draft of 1 letter, dated around 1956, Alma Mahler reflects on their relationship. Kokoschka's letter of 1957 was written just prior to a visit to the U.S. In addition, transcripts of the following 2 items are included: 1 note from Kokoschka to Paul Cassirer, dated 1914, in which Kokoschka pithily expresses his wish that the new German art should soon be liberated from Cassirer's influence; and 1 undated letter from Arno Nadel to Kokoschka, in which Nadel expresses admiration for Kokoschka and includes a poem ("Zeichnung von Kokoschka"). Also included are a photograph of Kokoschka as a young man, and 3 clippings about him: 1 is an excerpt from the book Die grossen Namen by Prince Konstantin von Bayern (1956); 1 is from Der Spiegel of 1962; and 1 is an article from Time, dated 1969, about Kokoschka's art in the context of his relationship with Alma Mahler.
