Letzte Chancen Vier Einakter Von Marie Von Ebner-eschenbach

Marie Von Ebner-eschenbach, Now Famous For Her Novels, Aphorisms, Novellas, And Diary Writing, Saw Herself As A Playwright, Wrote Exclusively Dramas During The First 30 Years Of Her Literary Career, And Was Extremely Ambitious: In Her Own Words, She Was Aiming To Become 'the Shakespeare Of The Nineteenth Century.' She Authored Twenty-six Plays, Which Were Reviewed Contemptuously By Her Contemporaries And Ignored By Posterity. The Plays Selected For This Volume Are All Short (one-act) Comedies Dating From Roughly The Same Time Period (late 1880s To 1900); They Are Ideally Suited For Inclusion In A Collection Due To Their Thematic And Stylistic Compatibility. In Each Play, A Man And A Woman Who Loved Each Other In The Past Encounter Each Other Again After Years Of Separation.
