		Stifter was born in the small Austrian town of Oberplan, which is now the Czech town of Horni-Plana, on 23 rd October 1805 to a linen weaver and flax dealer.
		Throughout his time in Vienna Stifter frequented the famous Burgtheater and though this cosmopolitan urban environment was in stark contrast to the rural life, he chose to extol in his later works, he appeared to thrive in the cultural vista.
		Stifter felt the catalytic effect of revolutionary uprisings in Vienna: the graphic episodes of violence repulsed him and forced him to retreat.

		It was in that year that the revolutionary uprisings, which filled the streets of Vienna with turmoil and violence, drove him from the capital to Linz.
		There was no longer any lack of honours and recognition: he received the medal for art and science and the cross of a knight of the Order of Francis Joseph, and was greatly esteemed by the Empress Elizabeth.

		Stifter was born on 23 October 1805 in the tiny market town of Oberplan, Austria (today the Czech town of Horni-Planá), the eldest child of linen weavers and merchants Johann and Magdalena Stifter.
		Stifter was an important force in the cultural life of his city: he regularly wrote reviews of Linz art exhibitions, and was active as a volunteer in architectural preservation, for example leading the restoration efforts of a local Gothic altarpiece.
		Stifter’s characters are not at home in the modern world; yet the natural world no longer guarantees a benign refuge.

		Stifter was born on 23 October 1805 in the tiny market town of Oberplan, Austria (today the Czech town of Horni-Planá), the eldest child of linen weavers and merchants Johann and Magdalena Stifter.
		(Stifter in later life gave his birth year as 1806, because his parents were married only two months before his birth.) Along with four other siblings, his maternal grandparents shared the family home.
		During his years in cosmopolitan Vienna, Stifter frequented the famous Burgtheater and the literary cafés and salons with cultural luminaries such as writers Franz Grillparzer, Nikolaus Lenau and Joseph von Eichendorff, composers Robert and Clara Schumann, singer Jenny Lind, and the explorer Friedrich Simony (Simony’s feats of alpinism inspired the story “Bergkristall” [“Rock Crystal”]).

		In its broadest sense, Adalbert Stifter's novella Abdias, published in 1842 and in a revised Studienfassung in 1847, is a text about the intersection of semiosis and epistemological anxiety.
		Already its famous opening passages about the competing interpretive paradigms of "Fatum, [...] [dem] selber die Gotter unterworfen sind," divinely sent "Schicksal," and the natural-scientific "Gesetz" of "die Kette der Ursachen und Wirkungen" (237-38) sketch out what might be called an epistemo-semiological problem: (1) Stifter's narrator anxiously questions why the universe functions the...
