This volume contains the letters written by the Austrian Romance scholar Leo Spitzer (1887-1960) to the Romance scholar and linguist Hugo Schuchardt (1842-1927). Apart from specialist discussions on matters pertaining to Romance Studies and linguistics, the letters provide a stylistically eloquent insight into the human, cultural and political aspects of the life of a Viennese Jewish intellectual from 1912 to 1925 who saw himself facing increasing academic difficulties, first in Austria, and then in Germany.
