This book was released on 2010-09-16 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in Vienna in 1881, Stefan Zweig was one of the most respected authors of his time. Foreseeing Nazi Germany's domination of Europe, Zweig left Austria in 1933. In 1941, following a successful lecture tour of South America and several months in New York, Stefan Zweig and his wife Lotte emigrated to Brazil. Despairing at Europe's future and feeling increasingly isolated, the Zweigs committed suicide together in 1942. Stefan Zweig was an incessant correspondent but as the 1930s progressed, it became difficult for him to maintain contact with friends and colleagues. As Zweig's correspondence all but ceased with the outbreak of World War II, little is known about his final years. Even less is known about Lotte Zweig, his second-wife, secretary and travel-companion. This book provides an analysis of the Zweigs' time together and for the first time reproduces personal letters, written by the couple in Argentina and Brazil, along with editorial commentary. Furthermore, Lotte finally emerges from her husband's shadows, with the letters offering significant insights into their relationship and her experience of exile.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Casual Letters From South America These letters were written at odd times during a journey which occupied the year and a half between the middle of 1919 and the end of 1920, and which included in its range some of the most interesting countries in the world: Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay. The mission Which took me to South America was a difficult but interesting task confided to me by the Hispanic Society of America, whose labours in the field of Hispanic Art and Literature are well known: namely, to write brief bio graphies of the leading men of each of the republics. These casual notes and jottings were in a sense by-products inci dental to that mission. They were cast in the form of letters to a friend, to amuse him with accounts of my daily life, and to remind him of scenes many of which he had himself in the past visited. Not intended originally for publication, they were rather in the nature of a record of day to day meetings, sights, impressions, and tribulations tempered by many de lightful experiences. They were jotted down in chance half-hours, in the hotel, on the train, in railway stations, whenever the occasion served, and partake inevitably Of the transient and ephemeral character of such casual impressions, while Whatever value they have rises, in some part at least, from the same causes. Like the photographs that accompany them, which were for the most part taken by members of the family or friends in the party, they are direct transcripts of experience, written on the spot, and set down before the image could fade from the retina or the impression grow dim in the mind. And while, no doubt, one might here and there correct the perspective and eliminate much that is purely momentary in the record, it would be at the cost of whatever spontaneity and immediacy it contains.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters on the Moral and Religious State of South America: Written During a Residence of Nearly Seven Years in Buenos Aires, Chile, Peru, and Colombia I am now about to return to that quarter of the world, and trust that the same gracious hand which protected me and guided me in my former wan deringa there, will still conduct me, and will enable me to sow seed which may spring up unto eternal life. Ten days after this date, I embark for Mexico, as the agent of the British and Foreign Bible So ciety. I go fraught with a sacred treasure, with some thousands of copies of the Holy Scriptures. Besides circulating these, which are nearly all in the Spanish language, I am commissioned to pro cure translations of the Scriptures into the native languages of that country, and which are still spoken there by some millions of the inhabitants. In prosecuting these objects, I intend to travel over the greater part of Mexico and Guatemala. Whilst traversing these parts, I shall probably keep a journal of occurrences, illustrative of the state of the country in a general point of view; and should the small volume now published be favourably re ceived, I may perhaps at some future period have something for the press less unworthy of public attention.
