Etiquette in Vienna is a living archive, not a frozen code.

Then / now snapshot

Era	Dominant norm	Today’s echo
Late 19th c.	Ceremony-first attendance	Formal openings and timing discipline
Mid 20th c.	Broadcast-aware behavior	Increased shared silence awareness
Present	Hybrid local-global audiences	Flexible but respectful social grammar

Modernity changed the clothing, not the core contract.

Bottom line: Vienna etiquette adapts in form, stays stable in function.
