description: "Emil Szittya is the name under which the originally Austria-Hungarian multi-faceted libertarian writer Adolf/Avraham Schenk published his first book, and it is the name by which he was and is most frequently known. The very many pseudonyms under which he may sometimes be identified include \"Chronist, Emszi\" and \"Emil Lesitt\". Along with his work as a novelist and journalist, he is also sometimes classified as an art critic and/or an inveterate traveller-vagabond. His earlier work was written in Hungarian. Later, as a young man, he also wrote in German. During the second half of his life he lived principally in France and wrote in French."
