bolt and storm. Terror and destruction." Ödön von Horváth was buried in Saint-Ouen cemetery in northern Paris. In 1988, on the 50th anniversary of his death, his remains were transferred to Vienna and reinterred at the Heiligenstädter Friedhof. Literary themes Important topics in Horváth's works were popular culture, politics and history. He especially tried to warn of the dawn of fascism and its dangers. Among Horváth's more enduringly popular works, (Youth Without God) describes the youth in Nazi Germany from a disgruntled teacher's point of view, who initially is an opportunist, but is helpless against the racist and militaristic Nazi propaganda that de-humanizes his pupils. The title of his novel Ein Kind unserer Zeit (A Child of Our Time) was used in English by Michael Tippett for his oratorio (1939–1941), composed during World War II.
