Summary "Semmering 1912" by Peter Altenberg is a collection of reflective essays and sketches written in the early 20th century. This work weaves together personal thoughts and observations about life, nature, love, and the human condition set against the backdrop of Semmering, a popular Alpine tourist destination. Through various voices and perspectives, Altenberg explores themes of longing, solitude, and the artistic experience in a changing world. At the start of the collection, the author sets a contemplative tone, evoking the beauty and melancholy of the mountainous landscape. He reflects on his deep connection to the mountains and gardens, suggesting that these natural settings inspire a sense of solitude and introspection. Altenberg introduces various characters and scenes, such as a dancer and her young admirer, illustrating the interplay of admiration and disappointment that arises from human interactions. With a blend of poetic language and keen insight, the opening portion invites readers into a world where emotions and nature intertwine, hinting at the broader themes that will unfold throughout the essays.
