Abstract

The author examines the dynamics of the 'promiscuous' sexual activity in the various characters in Schnitzler's play, Round Dance. He concludes that what superficially appears to be promiscuity actually represents both a mask for unconscious Oedipal wishes and a 'bulwark against the sexual selectivity inspired by our incestuous ideals'.
