ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the Karl Kraus's views of the three women and of Jewish women in general typified a trend that began in fin-de-siecle Vienna and increased after the end of the First World War when, with the sharp rise in anti-Semitism. It also discusses that Jewish women came under increasing attack, particularly as they began to experience careers in the public sphere. The chapter shows all three women faced antisemitic and misogynist prejudices from many, but those from Jewish men may have hit home the hardest. Not long after establishing her first school, Eugenie Schwarzwald encountered difficulties with antisemitic Austrian authorities that would last throughout the entire course of her career in Vienna. Like Schwarzwald, Berta Zuckerkandl managed to achieve success in the Viennese public sphere both because of, as well as in spite of, her Jewish background. The inter-war years proved to be advantageous for Zuckerkandl's career.
