Georg Buchner, who died at the age of twenty-three, is particularly remembered for his striking presentation of the revolutionary predicament in Dantons Tod and for his impressive proletarian tragedy Woyzek.
This edition presents the two plays with an introduction and notes for students of German literature at school, at university and in centres of further education. Buchner's skilful contrast of political standpoints and his imaginative humanity have a permanent appeal.
The combination of his innovative dramatic methods which inspired much of the dramatic practice of the twentieth century, his sympathy for the lower strata of society and his powerful expression of human anguish singles him out as an original and outstanding dramatist. Buchner is undoubtedly in the forefront of authors chosen for exciting courses introducing German literature to the English-speaking world.
