		Robert Musil was born in Klagenfurt, capital of the southern Austrian province of Carinthia, on November 6, 1880.
		Musil was in many ways not only a writer, but a literary perfectionist and "rewriter" of his own work.
		Musil had retrieved the galleys of his novel "Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften" from the printer and was in the process of extensively reworking them when, on April 15, 1942 at the age of sixty-two, he suddenly collapsed from a cerebral hemorrhage and died.

		What finally begins to emerge is that Musil saw Moosbrugger as a symbol of the ‘reality’ of male sexuality: a crude desire to possess a woman and treat her as a ‘throwaway’.
		Musil is also fascinated by the fact that so many women find their marriages oddly unsatisfying and unfulfilling (in this sense he could almost be regarded as one of the founders of the Women’s Lib movement).
		Musil could never be said to have achieved this kind of success in The Man Without Qualities, because the novel was unfinishable; Musil is trying to square the circle, and it cannot be done.

	ROBERT MUSIL FACTS AND INFORMATION
		Robert Musil (Klagenfurt, Austria, November_6, 1880 – April_15, 1942 in Geneva, Switzerland) was an Austrian writer, author of the unfinished trilogy ''The_Man_Without_Qualities'' (in German, ''Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften''), one of the most important modernist novels.
		The elder Musil was an engineer, appointed in 1891 to the chair of Mechanical Engineering at the Technical University in Brno, and awarded a hereditary peerage in the Austro-Hungarian empire shortly before it collapsed.
		Even then, however, Musil was growing tired with engineering and the limited worldview of engineers, and rather than settle into an engineering career, he launched a new round of doctoral studies (1903-1908) in psychology and philosophy at the University_of_Berlin under the renowned Professor Carl_Stumpf.

	ALK libri: Robert Musil - Biografia
		Musil trovò nella moglie, una donna intelligente e premurosa, il sostegno ideale per affrontare un periodo non troppo proficuo della sua carriera letteraria, tanto che si convinse, seppur controvoglia, ad accettare la nomina a bibliotecario presso il Politecnico di Vienna.
		Prima di iniziare il nuovo lavoro, che in poco tempo migliorò le sue condizioni economiche, Musil, insieme alla moglie, si concesse un viaggio a Roma, in cui soggiornò circa quattro mesi e durante i quali trasse spunti per il suo celebre diario romano.
		Musil riprese a lavorare intensamente al proseguimento dell’opera “L’uomo senza qualità”, e contemporaneamente continuò a scrivere brani autobiografici, nuove pagine di saggi e anche aforismi.

		When Musil is told that Thomas Mann is, along with others, one of the founders of the Musil Societies, and what these societies do for him he admits he is moved by the gesture of the man whom he has been so unjust to.

		Musil, like Theodore Dreiser, uses his gigantic novel as a vehicle to express all manner of opinions and observations, philosophical, psychological and political, and to paint a portrait of the Hapsburg empire on the brink of destruction.
		Musil was touched but also amused by the social and economic scrambling and competitiveness he witnessed, and he often wrote in an ironic mode.
		Musil was a painstaking, even obsessive, writer who worked over his material again and again and experimented with taking the novel in different directions before making a final decision.

	Waggish: Italo Calvino on Musil and Gadda
		Musil and Gadda appear to have almost nothing in common except for a certain underlying contempt for the world, and even that comes out very differently.
		Whereas with Musil, there is the sense that after a good chunk of near-total control in the first two volumes, The Man Without Qualities runs off its rails in the third and Musil tries desperately to get it back on track.
		Musil, as is his tendency, evades the classification.

	Waggish: Robert Musil and Walter Rathenau
		In a letter of 1934 to his friend the satirist Franz Blei, Musil, given his desperate personal situation and the Nazi takeover in Germany, compares his continued work on The Man without Qualities to "the diligence of a woodworm, boring through a picture frame in a house that is already ablaze".
		Arnheim was modeled on Walter Rathenau, the businessman and foreign minister who became one of the most prominent international negotiators in post-Versailles Germany, until he was assassinated by anti-Semitic right-wingers in 1922, removing one more obstacle in the way of the ideological and political ascent of Nazism.
		Musil wrote "On Stupidity" in 1937, a abstruse (for him) Benjamin-like exercise in postponement in which he never quite gets around to what he wants to say because it would get him in big trouble.

	The qualities of Roger Musil by Roger Kimball (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Which is to say that Musil was both a partisan of “soul,” and that he was a sharp and exceedingly entertaining critic of “Soul”—upper case and in scare quotes.
		Musil ridicules the Romanticism of characters like Diotima who condemn science for disenchanting the world with “facts.” And yet he seems to side with Ulrich when he explains that “knowledge is a mode of conduct, a passion.
		Musil presents scientific rationality as a temptation as well as an accomplishment because he sees that inherent in its view of the world is an invitation to forget one’s humanity.

		Musil's prose is so precise that after reading a few pages you feel that your mind has been refreshed and cleared.
		Musil's characters go into great detail discussing the many political, economic and social philosphies swirling around Europe at that time and these often reflect the relationships of the various and motley individuals that make up the novel.
		Robert Musil may I remind you, was not a writer suited for the masses, he did not write to "entertain" people such as yourself who are bored by examination of a century, his century.
