The lonely way: The theme of the play is the inevitable emptiness and loneliness of lives devoted wholly to self-indulgence ithout regard to the welfare or suffering of others. In a succession of quiet conversations the characters reveal themselves and their relations to each other, which make the situation a tragedy. A young art student, Wegrath, takes his friend, Julian Fichtner, to visit his betrothed, Gabrielle. The fascinating Julian falls in love with her, and they plan to elope a week before the wedding. The night before they are to leave together, Julian decides that he wishes to be free from the ties and duties which marriage brings, and he deserts her. She marries Wegrath, who becomes a professor of art and president of the Academy. The oldest of her two children Felix, is Julian’s son. The play opens just before Gabrielle’s death when Philip is twenty-three. Julian has drifted about in pursuit of pleasure and has not fulfilled the great promise of his early years. His hope of solving the problem of the “lonely way” is to claim the love and companionship of his son Felix. Felix turns from him to the father he has always known and loved as his own. Von Sala, a middle-aged dramatic poet, who like Julian has lived for himself, disregarding human ties, points out to Julian that he had acquired no right of possession in Felix. He defines love as service. For those who will not serve, there lies ahead the “lonely way.” The lonely are “their kind” who are free because they have never belonged to anyone but themselves. Johanna, the sister of Felix, loves Von Sala, and he commits suicide when he learns she has drowned herself for his sake. The characters of the two egoists, Julian and Von Sala, are brilliantly and consistently drawn.
Hands Around is a famous play with provocative sexual themes. It examines its time's sexual morality and class ideology through consecutive interactions between two characters before or after a sexual encounter. The characters include a prostitute, a soldier, A parlor maid, a young gentleman, a young wife, a husband, a Miss, a poet, an actress, and a count. By picking characters from all levels of society, the play offers social commentary on how sexual interaction breaks class boundaries. The play follows the suppression and flooding of sexuality in a psychologically exciting way. In addition, it paints a unique picture of sexual intercourse, as if Schnitzler is saying that love is unreliable. He wants to tell the readers that infidelity isn't something that only streetwalkers and soldiers participate in, but the nobility, the wealthy, and the world's artists also partake in it. It is a truly exceptional and unforgettable play that evoked strong reactions from people when it was first published.
