Description
The diary entries of Johanna Gräfin Eltz-Schönborn (1875-1957) span almost five decades and are thus a unique contemporary document. The early entries immerse the reader in the vanished world of the European aristocracy at the turn of the century. The author documented the two decisive historical upheavals in Austria in the 20th century in a particularly impressive way - the collapse of the Danube monarchy in 1918 and the so-called "Anschluss" to National Socialist Germany in 1938. Finally, this diary became Johanna Eltz-Schönborn's courageous confession of her resolute rejection of the Nazi state and its crimes.
The more than 200 illustrations contained in this publication are also very valuable historical testimonies. The photographs from Johanna Eltz-Schönborn's estate date back to the early days of photography at the end of the 19th century. They provide unique and undisguised insights into the life of the Central European aristocracy at the turn of the century.
