He also provides insights into the political and social climate of the city, including discussions of the Dreyfus Affair and the rise of anti-Semitism.In the second part of the book, the author turns his attention to Vienna, where he spent several years as a diplomat. He provides a detailed account of the city's social scene, including descriptions of the famous balls and concerts that took place during the winter season. He also discusses the political and cultural climate of the city, including the rise of nationalism and the tensions between different ethnic groups.Overall, Society Recollections In Paris And Vienna: 1879-1904 provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of high society in two of Europe's most vibrant cities at the turn of the 20th century.
