The First German Theatre (Routledge Revivals)Author :

Description
First published in 1990. The book surveys of the development of German theatre from a market sideshow into an important element of cultural life and political expression. It examines Schiller as `theatre poet at Mannheim, Goethes work as director of the court theatre at Weimar, and then traces the rapid commercial decline that made it difficult for Kleist and impossible for Büchner to see their plays staged in their own lifetime. Four representative texts are analysed: Schillers The Robbers, Goethes Iphigenia on Tauris, Kleists The Prince of Homburg, and Büchners Woyzeck. This title will be of interest to students of theatre and German literature.
