“A little station on the stretch leading towards Russia.”
Robert Musil (* 6. November 1880 in St. Ruprecht bei Klagenfurt; † 15. April 1942 in Genf) war ein österreichischer Schriftsteller und Theaterkritiker. Für sein literarisches Schaffen waren der Erste Weltkrieg sowie die Errichtung der nationalsozialistischen Herrschaft in Deutschland und Österreich bedeutsame Einschnitte. Musils Werk umfasst Novellen, Dramen, Essays, Kritiken und zwei Romane: 1906 erschien *Die Verwirrungen des Zöglings Törleß,* ein vielfach auch als Schullektüre genutztes Werkbeispiel der literarischen Moderne. An seinem zur Weltliteratur zählenden Hauptwerk *Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften,* das von autobiographischen Aspekten mitbestimmt ist, hat Musil seit den 1920er Jahren
