Beskrivning

Heinrich von Kleist has emerged as one of the great literary figures of his era, yet surprisingly few critical studies of his works exist in English. This book by a distinguished authority on Kleist attempts to fill the gap by offering an up to date and challenging reading of his dramas and stories in the light of recent scholarship in German and other languages.
