About Author

Arthur Schnitzler

Arthur Schnitzler (German: [ˈʃnɪtslɐ]; 15 May 1862 – 21 October 1931) was an Austrian author and dramatist. He is considered one of the most significant representatives of Viennese Modernism. Schnitzler's works, which include psychological dramas and narratives, dissected turn-of-the-century Viennese bourgeois life, making him a sharp and stylistically conscious chronicler of Viennese society around 1900. Schnitzler's Jewish upbringing and the sexual content of his works made them controversial or banned in his time and beyond.

Description

Paracelsus (1898) has the theme "All the world's a stage" and combines it with hypnotism. The green cookatoo (1898) is an intermingling of illusion and reality. Marionettes and The puppeteer have as a theme the tendency of some human beings to treat others as mere playthings or puppets. The great puppet show features both puppets-on-a-sting and "real" characters.
