Alma Mahler presents the imagined memories of a talented, passionate woman living in the shadow of a famous husband. The novel deals with Alma’s marriage to the distant and introverted Gustav Mahler, the Austrian late-Romantic composer and conductor, and with the many intellectual and emotional sacrifices Alma makes in order to be a support for him. Throughout, Alma wrestles with the tension between her desire to be near genius and her growing awareness that all she will ever receive in return for her sacrifice are the great man’s silence and the pains of solitude.

Jahrhunderts. Ein Reigen berühmter Männer um eine attraktive Frau: Aber in wen haben sich Gustav Klimt, Gustav Mahler, Oskar Kokoschka, Walter Gropius und Franz Werfel eigentlich verliebt?

A fresh perspective on two well-known personalities, Schoenberg's Correspondence with Alma Mahler documents a modern music friendship beginning in fin-de-siécle Vienna and ending in 1950s Los Angeles. This volume is the first English-language edition of the complete extant correspondence in new English translations from the original German, many from new transcriptions of handwritten originals, and it is the first English-language book of Schoenberg's correspondence with a female associate. These often quite candid letters afford readers a fascinating glimpse into the personalities, ideologies, institutions, protocols, and aesthetics of early twentieth-century European music culture. Critics, conductors, composers, and visual artists are appraised, kindly or venomously; visual artists and writers also appear. Above all, Alma Mahler (1879-1964) and Arnold Schoenberg (1874-1951) emerge as intriguing, complex individuals who transcend their conventional representations as, respectively, a femme fatale and a musical radical. For Schoenberg, Alma was a sympathetic confidante, a comrade in their shared battle against musical conservatism, yet also a canny negotiator of Vienna's social circles, a skill that brought Schoenberg into contact with important patrons. Not only did he invite Alma to his premieres, lectures, and art exhibitions, but Schoenberg also sent her scores of his music and drafts of his writings. He revealed to her his plans for his innovative new music society, the Society for Private Music Performances, and his development of a new method of composition with twelve tones. The letters remind us of how crucial the social and personal dimensions of music culture were to the early twentieth-century composers and musicians. Gender, ethnicity, and social class conditioned their opportunities in music---and in life---and their shared experience of fleeing fascism to a new country with a different culture and language resonates with our own epoch.

Alma Mahler-Werfel (1879-1964) är kanske det 20:e århundradets mest spännande kvinna. Å ena sidan vacker, intelligent och gift med tre av seklets största konstnärer: Gustav Mahler, Walter Gropius och Franz Werfel. Å andra sidan hämndlysten, djupt alkoholiserad och närmast besatt av det sexuella. Den långa raden av älskare rymmer bl. a. den store expressionisten Oskar Kokoschka. "En riktig dam, och samtidigt en kloak", som en väninna en gång sade om henne. I sin lysande biografi har Oliver Hilmes inte bara lyckats gestalta en stridbar och omstridd kvinna utan också fångat en svunnen epoks kulturliv och dess centralfigurer.

Im Fruhjahr 1912 lasst sich Alma Mahler, Grande Dame der Wiener Gesellschaft und soeben erst Witwe geworden, auf eine Affare mit dem "Enfant Terrible" der Wiener Kunstszene, Oskar Kokoschka, ein. Es entbrennt eine Leidenschaft, die fur beide existenzbedrohend wird. Der biografische Roman erzahlt die Amour Fou des jungen expressionistischen Kunstlers Oskar Kokoschka mit der um einige Jahre alteren Grand Dame des Wiener Kulturlebens, Alma Mahler, der Witwe des Operndirektors. Sie lasst sich von dem noch unbekannten jungen Kunstler malen, sie verfuhrt ihn und weist den Unerfahrenen in die Kunste der Erotik ein. Fur sie ist er anfangs nur eine ihrer zahlreichen Eroberungen, fur ihn ist sie aber die erste grosse Liebe. Er macht sie zu seiner Muse und glaubt ohne sie nicht mehr kunstlerisch arbeiten zu konnen. Nach zwei Jahren leidenschaftlicher Beziehung gelingt es Oskar beinahe, Alma zu zahmen. Alle Gegner hat er aus dem Feld geschlagen, nur einer bleibt fur ihn unbesiegbar, der Tote, Gustav Mahler.
Alma Mahler-Werfel, eine ebenso schöne wie kluge Frau, schildert ihr ungewöhnliches Leben. Dieser Bericht ist freilich übers nur Biographische hinaus als Beschreibung einer Epoche aufschlußreich: das fin de siecle, der Beginn und die Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Große Gestalten spielten im Leben dieser Frau eine Rolle: Walter Gropius, Gustav Mahler, Kokoschka und Hofmannsthal, Romain Rolland und viele andere. Und auf geheimnisvolle Weise werden noch einmal der Zauber und die Anziehungskraft dieser Frau fühlbar, die niemand, der sie gekannt hat, vergessen konnte.
Margaret Mahler was from a young age intrigued by the theories of Sigmund Freud and Hungarian psychoanalysts such as Sandor Ferenzci, with whom she became acquainted while a student in Budapest. Forced to flee Europe and rising anti-Semitism, Margaret and her husband, Paul, came to the United States in 1938. It was after this move that Mahler performed her most significant research and developed concepts such as the ground-breaking theory of separation-individuation, an idea which was given credence by Mahler's own relationship with her father. This volume details the life and work of Margaret Mahler focusing on her life's ambition--her psychoanalytical work. Her experiences with the Philadelphia Institute and her definitive research through the Masters Children's Clinic are also discussed.
