Zweig was an extremely well-known writer in the 1930s and 1940s. Since his death in 1942 his work has become less known.
Zweig wrote novels and short stories, and several biographies, of which the most famous is probably that of Mary Stuart. This was published in German as Maria Stuart and in English as (The) Queen of Scots or Mary, Queen of Scotland and the Isles. At one time his works were published in English under the pseudonym "Stephen Branch" (a translation of his real name), when anti-German sentiment was running high. His biography of Queen Marie-Antoinette was later adapted for a Hollywood movie starring the MGM actress Norma Shearer in the title role.
Born in Vienna, Zweig was the son of Moritz Zweig, a wealthy Jewish textile manufacturer, and Ida (Brettauer) Zweig, the daughter of an Italian banking family.
Zweig studied philosophy and the history of literature, and in Vienna he was associated with the avant garde Young Vienna movement. Being a Jew, he fled Austria in 1934. He was famously defended by the composer Richard Strauss who refused to remove Zweig"s name (as librettist) from the posters for the premiere, in Dresden, of his opera Die schweigsame Frau (The Silent Woman). This led to Hitler refusing to come to the premiere as planned; the opera was banned after three performances.
Zweig then lived in England (in Bath and London), before moving to the USA. In 1941 he went to Brazil, where he and his second wife Lotte (née Charlotte Elisabeth Altmann) committed suicide together in Petrópolis using the barbiturate Veronal, despairing at the future of Europe and its culture. After the fall of Singapore, they believed Nazism would spread over the whole earth. "I think it better to conclude in good time and in erect bearing a life in which intellectual labour meant the purest joy and personal freedom the highest good on earth." His book The World of Yesterday is a paean to the European culture he considered lost.
There are significant Zweig collections at the British Library and at State University of New York at Fredonia. The BL Zweig collection, given to the library by its trustees in May 1986, includes a wide range of items of surprising variety and rarity, among them Mozart"s own Verzeichnüss, that is, the composer"s own handwritten thematic catalogue of his works.

Stefan Zweig (November 28, 1881 Vienna, Austria - February 22, 1942 Petrópolis, Brazil) was an Austrian novelist, playwright, journalist and biographer.
Life
Zweig was the son of Moritz Zweig, a wealthy Jewish textile manufacturer, and Ida (Brettauer) Zweig, the daughter of an Italian banking family. He studied philosophy and the history of literature, and in Vienna he was associated with the avant garde Young Vienna movement. Jewish religion did not play a central role in his education. "My mother and father were Jewish only through accident of birth," Zweig said later in an interview. Although his essays were published in the Neue Freie Presse, whose literary editor was the Zionist leader Theodor Herzl, Zweig was not attracted to Herzl"s Jewish nationalism.
During the First World War he took a pacifist stand together with French writer Romain Rolland, summoning intellectuals from all the world to join them in active pacifism, which actually led to Romain Rolland being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Zweig remained pacifist all his life but also advocated the unification of Europe before the Nazis came, which has had some influence in the making of the EU. Like Rolland, he wrote many biographies but considered the one on Erasmus Rotterdamus his most important one, which he described as a concealed autobiography.
Zweig fled Austria in 1934 following Hitler"s rise to power. He was famously defended by the composer Richard Strauss who refused to remove Zweig"s name (as librettist) from the posters for the premiere, in Dresden, of his opera Die schweigsame Frau (The Silent Woman). This led to Hitler refusing to come to the premiere as planned; the opera was banned after three performances.
Zweig then lived in England (in Bath and London), before moving to the United States. In 1941 he went to Brazil, where in 1942 he and his second wife Lotte (née Charlotte Elisabeth Altmann) committed suicide together in Petrópolis using the barbiturate Veronal, despairing at the future of Europe and its culture. "I think it better to conclude in good time and in erect bearing a life in which intellectual labour meant the purest joy and personal freedom the highest good on earth," he wrote. His autobiography The World of Yesterday is a paean to the European culture he considered lost.
Work
Stefan Zweig was a very well-known writer in the 1920s and 1930s, but since his death in 1942, his work has become less familiar to the English-reading public. While he is still read in Germany and also in France, his name is barely known to the average Anglophone reader. In the last few decades, however, there has been an effort on the part of several publishers to get Zweig back into print in English.
Zweig wrote novels and short stories, and several biographies, of which the most famous is probably that of Mary Stuart. This was published in German as Maria Stuart and in English as (The) Queen of Scots or Mary, Queen of Scotland and the Isles. At one time his works were published in English under the pseudonym Stephen Branch (a translation of his real name), when anti-German sentiment was running high.

Stefan Zweig by Friderika Zweig (Thomas Y. Crowell Company, 1946) OCLC 273327 is an account by his first wife, telling, inter alia, of the breakup of the marriage.

世间最美的坟墓——记1928年的一次俄国旅行
茨威格
我在俄国所见到的景物再没有比托尔斯泰墓更宏伟、更感人的了。这快将被后代永远怀着敬畏之情朝拜的尊严圣地,远离尘嚣,孤零零地躺在林荫里。顺着一条羊肠小路信步走去,穿过林间空地和灌木丛,便到了墓冢前;这只是一个长方形的土堆而已。无人守护,无人管理,只有几株大树荫庇。他的外孙女跟我讲,这些高大挺拔、在初秋的风中微微摇动的树木是托尔斯泰亲手栽种的。小的时候,他的哥哥尼古莱和他听保姆或村妇讲过一个古老传说,提到亲手种树的地方会变成幸福的所在。于是他们俩就在自己庄园的某块地上栽了几株树苗,这个儿童游戏不久也就忘了。托尔斯泰晚年才想起这桩儿时往事和关于幸福的奇妙许诺,饱经忧患的老人突然中获到了一个新的、更美好的启示。他当即表示愿意将来埋骨于那些亲手栽种的树木之下。
后来就这样办了,完全按照托尔斯泰的愿望;他的墓成了世间最美的、给人印象最深刻的、最感人的坟墓。它只是树林中的一个小小长方形土丘,上面开满鲜花,没有十字架没有墓碑,没有墓志铭,连托尔斯泰这个名字也没有。这个比谁都感到受自己的声名所累的伟人,就像偶尔被发现的流浪汉、不为人知的士兵那样不留名姓地被人埋葬了。谁都可以踏进他最后的安息地,围在四周的稀疏的木栅栏是不关闭的——保护列夫·托尔斯泰得以安息的没有任何别的东西,唯有人们的敬意;而通常,人们却总是怀着好奇,去破坏伟人墓地的宁静。这里,逼人的朴素禁锢住任何一种观赏的闲情,并且不容许你大声说话。风儿在俯临这座无名者之墓的树木之间飒飒响着,和暖的阳光在坟头嬉戏;冬天,白雪温柔地覆盖这片幽暗的土地。无论你在夏天还是冬天经过这儿,你都想象不到,这个小小的、隆起的长方形包容着当代最伟大的人物当中的一个。然而,恰恰是不留姓名,比所有挖空心思置办的大理石和奢华装饰更扣人心弦:今天,在这个特殊的日子里,成百上千到他的安息地来的人中间没有一个有勇气,哪怕仅仅从这幽暗的土丘上摘下一朵花留作纪念。人们重新感到,这个世界上再也没有比这最后留下的、纪念碑式的朴素更打动人心的了。老残军人退休院大理石穹隆底下拿破仑的墓穴,魏玛公候之墓中歌德的灵寝,西敏司寺里莎士比亚的石棺,看上去都不像树林中的这个只有风儿低吟,甚至全无人语声,庄严肃穆,感人至深的无名墓冢那样能剧烈震撼每一个人内心深藏着的感情。
