Information on Austria in 1770′s and up?
I’m doing a project for English class as a final exam. I decided to go above and beyond, which I’m kicking myself for now. The project is to write 10 or more letters from myself in Austria in the 1770′s to someone else (doesn’t matter who). I decided to put myself as a student of Nannerl Mozart’s, Wolfgang’s sister. I’ve found a lot of information on Wolfgang, and very minimal on Nannerl, but I more so need information on the following categories:
Government, transportation, cooking/food, house and furniture design, cost of household necessities, occupations and salaries, entertainment, social rules and customs, ‘slang’ of the age, five people who lived and were famous during this time, three major firsts of the year AND three major events.
Wooh. That’s a mouthful. Any information is EXTREMELY appreciated, but please cite your source. Thank you!
