{"product_id":"eight-plays-arthur-schnitzler-9780810119338","title":"Eight Plays: Performance Texts","description":"The plays of Arthur Schnitzler have in recent years come to be recognized as masterpieces of modernism. This collection presents the most accurate translations available of Schnitzler's works, passing up opportunities to paraphrase and instead flushing out vivid detail and psychological insight by combining a sensitive interpretation of the playwright's sometimes ironic, sometimes farcical, temperament with a faithful re-creation of dialogue. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe volume includes Schnitzler's popular \u003ci\u003eRoundelay (La Ronde) \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eAnatol, \u003c\/i\u003eas well as rarely translated works like \u003ci\u003eProfessor Bernhardi \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eHour of Realizing. \u003c\/i\u003eThere are also additional scenes and an alternate ending to \u003ci\u003eAnatol\u003c\/i\u003e that are seldom found in translation or even in German versions of the play. With conscientious attention to the rhythms of speech and respect for the completeness of the works, these translations offer new possibilities for bringing Schnitzler's works to the contemporary stage and new insights for anyone interested in drama, literature, or history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arthur Schnitzler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0810119331\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780810119338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Northwestern University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 474\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.71h x 5.34w x 0.99d","brand":"Arthur Schnitzler","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48086903587071,"sku":"9780810119338","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_133096a6-e5c7-4476-bb91-f59a1456cf1c.jpg?v=1769097233","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/eight-plays-arthur-schnitzler-9780810119338","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
