VOLUME V
BY GERHART HAUPTMANN
$1.50 NET WEIGHT 22 OUNCES
_Contains_: “_Schluck and Jau_;” “_And Pippa Dances_;”
“_Charlemagne’s Hostage_.”
The second group of Hauptmann’s Symbolic and Legendary Dramas
gains unity by a recognizable oneness of inspiration. The poet
has become a seeker; he questions the nature and quality of
various ultimate values; he abandons the field of the personal
and individual life and traces for us, through the poetic fabric,
the universal search for beauty, the problem of moral evil and
the transitoriness of earthly glory. [A special circular, with
contents of the preceding volumes, will be mailed upon request to
the publisher.]
WISCONSIN PLAYS
$1.25 net; weight about 18 oz.
_Contains_: _“The Neighbors,” by Zona Gale_; _“In Hospital,”
by Thomas H. Dickinson_; _“Glory of the Morning,” by
William Ellery Leonard_.
A noteworthy manifestation of the interest in the stage and its
literature is the work, both in writing of plays and their
performance, of the gifted band organized as the Wisconsin
Dramatic Society. The three one-act plays in this volume are
fruits of the movement. Having met with success in the theatre,
they are now offered to the creative reader to whose imagination
dramatic literature is a stimulus.
These may be had from booksellers or from the publisher upon
application, to whom a list of interesting publications of 1914
may be obtained.
