The thirty articles featured in Contested Passions: Sexuality, Eroticism, and Gender in Modern Austrian Literature and Culture are based on papers given at the MALCA conference in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, in the Spring of 2007. They cover literary works by several Austrian authors of the nineteenth and twentieth century such as Schnitzler, Musil, Hofmannsthal, Broch, Kraus, Drach, Jelinek and also developments in the graphic arts, including works by Klimt and VALIE EXPORT; architecture – for example, Loos; film; and the popular media.
