Description: Arthur Schnitzler wrote his most famous novella, None but the Brave (Leutnant Gustl), within the span of six days in July 1900. The story appeared in the Viennese newspaper Neue Freie Presse on 25 December 1900 and caused a scandal. The officers' corps of the Austro-Hungarian army felt insulted by the novella about a 24-year-old lieutenant stationed in Vienna. The conservative military paper Reichswehr printed a fierce attack on Schnitzler, and it was generally expected that as a reserve officer Schnitzler would defend his honor by challenging his attacker to a duel. When it became clear at last that Schnitzler had no intention to do so—one point of his story having been precisely the mindlessness of duels—a military court adjudicating matters of honor convened and relieved Schnitzler of his officer's title. It was an extraordinary step, but the judges felt that Schnitzler's disrespectful fiction as well as his subsequent cowardice called for such a severe punishment. The honor of the Habsburg army was at stake, challenged by a Jewish intellectual.Schnitzler's story, which consists entirely of Lieutenant Gustl's interior monologue, was indeed designed to expose an unglamorous core concealed beneath a glittery uniform. Schnitzler's narrative form, the monologue novella, which he thus introduced into German literature, fits its function perfectly. The reader is allowed immediate access to the protagonist's thoughts, even those Gustl might wish to hide. Rather than criticize army officers through an omniscient narrator, Schnitzler creates an effect of self-revelation, which magnifies Gustl's shortcomings.(http://www.encyclopedia.com/arts/ency...)
