Abstract

The article shows that many of Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach's aphorisms are based on German proverbs and proverbial expressions. The puns and plays with proverbial language are usually serious intellectual and didactic statements by one of the few female aphoristic authors in the German language. The aphorisms deal with moral and social issues, and a number of the anti-proverbs touch on ideas of modern feminism.

Journal Information

The journal known since 1968 as Modern Austrian Literature first appeared in 1961 under the title Journal of the International Arthur Schnitzler Research Association. Since then, MAL has established itself as a premier source of scholarship on Austrian literature and culture extending beyond the borders of present-day Austria throughout the former Habsburg Austro-Hungarian Empire. European and Asian interest in MAL has grown over the decades, and the list of subscribers and the international diversity of contributors testify to the truly international status of the journal. MAL appears quarterly in print (in March, June, September, and December) and is also completely archived and available digitally.

Publisher Information

The Austrian Studies Association (formerly the Modern Austrian Literature and Culture Association, MALCA) continues traditions started in 1961, as the only North American association devoted to scholarship on all aspects of Austrian, Austro-Hungarian, and Habsburg territory cultural life and history from the eighteenth century until today.
