«Lulu» is the play by Frank Wedekind that brings together «Erdgeist» and «Die Büchse der Pandora», published by Henricus in paperback (154 pages, in German).
The play brings together the two dramas Wedekind dedicated to Lulu, a woman who embodies vitality and freedom against bourgeois morality. Her trajectory, marked by desire and transgression, runs between «Erdgeist» and «Die Büchse der Pandora», two texts that in their time provoked scandals and censorship and are now considered his main work.
This complete edition includes a biography of the author. «Erdgeist» premiered in Leipzig in 1898 and «Die Büchse der Pandora» in Nuremberg in 1904.
For those interested in classic drama and German literature, as well as for those studying the work of Frank Wedekind.
Benjamin Franklin Wedekind was a German playwright. His work, which often criticizes bourgeois attitudes, is considered to anticipate expressionism and was influential in the development of epic theatre.
