The Woman/Women of Franz Grillparzer's Der Traum ein Leben
"Die Alte" from Grillparzer's Der Traum ein Leben
Orchestrated Death Scenes as a Means of Revenge

Kleist's Hermannsschlacht and the Brandenburger Tor
Since the momentous night of 9/10 November 1989, the Brandenburger has figured prominently in the media as the most compelling image both of the peaceful revolution and of the final realization of the long exasperated aspirations for a united Germany on the Tag der Einheit, 3 October 1990. As some of us looked at those pictures of exuberant youths celebrating on top of the wall in November or in the streets in October with the famous gate presidi…
