28 authors, J. Roth specialists, present a scientific analysis of works and sources about this Austrian writer. Roth was because of his origin and his inclinations especially intensively connected with the Jewish, but also German, Slavonic and Slovenian world.

It posits him as a humanist, political person, a Paris emigré running away from nacism and an Austrian universalist of progressive ideas and visions.
