Two Viennese Families
View through CrossRef
In the book’s first chapter major events in Berg’s early life (1885–1911) in Vienna are traced: his family, his artistic impulses and influences, his self-instruction in music and art, his schooling, and his early professional aspirations. Berg’s lifelong struggle with poor health is assessed. The Nahowski family, Berg’s future in-laws, is studied, including Anna Nahowski’s affair with Emperor Franz Joseph and the possibility that Helene Berg was the Emperor’s natural daughter. The love triangle of Berg, Helene, and Paul Kammerer (a brilliant Viennese scientist and musician) is explored, and the chapter ends with Berg’s marriage to Helene in 1911.
