Peer review

Published by the International Robert Musil Society, the Musil-Forum is an established interdisciplinary platform dedicated to the exploration of Classic Modernist literature and, in particular, the work of Robert Musil. Currently published every two years, the Musil-Forum is interdisciplinary in its approach and open in its methodology. It is a source of information on the latest research in Modernism and current research debates. The Forum focuses on articles relating to the life and work of Musil (1880-1942), 20th century Austrian literature, and Classic Modernist literature (approx. 1895-1933), encouraging debate on the possibilities and limitations of the by no means standardised or concise term Classic Modernism. A debate reflecting on the continuity and discontinuity of literary and cultural strategies and themes in equal measures.

Each contribution is accompanied by an English abstract.
