Extract

The appearance in 1889 of a drama like Vor Sonnenaufgang as the work of a young genius, practically unknown, was startling. Though it would not be quite accurate to speak of it as the first drama written by Hauptmann, nothing was known of his earlier dramatic efforts. His lyrical works fared better. Both Promethidenloos and Das Bunte Buch had actually reached the public and are still treasured by their fortunate owners. Fasching and Bahnwärter Thiel had also appeared before 1889, as well as two short articles, almost unknown to-day—a review of Hermann Conradi's Lieder eines Sünders and an essay Gedanken über das Bemalen der Statuen.
