Babo's Strelitzen cut to fit, slightly cutting date of publication. August von Kotzebue (1761-1819) was a German dramatist and writer. At the age of sixteen August von Kotzebue acted alongside Goethe in the latter's play Die Geschwister (Siblings) when it premiered in Weimar in 1776. He was murdered in 1819 by Karl Ludwig Sand, a militant member of the Burschenschaften. The murder led to the Carlsbad Decrees of 1819 issued by Prince Metternich, cracking down on the liberal press and restricting academic freedom in the states of the German Confederation. "Hardly any modern playwright has been as influential on the course of European drams as August von Kotzebue. Author of over 230 theater pieces, Kotzebue was by far Germany's most popular and prolific dramatist during the period often referred to as the Goethezeit. Indeed, between 1791 and 1817 Kotzebue's plays enjoyed twice as many performances in Goethe's own theater in Weimar as those of Schiller, and over four times as many as Goethe's own dramas. On other large stages the statistics were similar. In fact, Benno von Wiese estimates that from 1795 to 1825 Kotzebue's plays made up about a quarter of the repertoire in all German theaters." (Karin Pendle) Joseph Maria Babo (1756-1822) was a German dramatist known for his preference of historically based content, as in Goethe's "Göz von Berlichingen," or Shakespeare. He was appointed secretary of the Mannheim theater in 1774 and moved to Munich in 1774 to work as a writer and lecturer. Soon after he became an active and respected member of the Rumford Circle. His tragedy "Otto von Wittelsbach" was considered a masterpiece and was part of many theater repertoires into the 1840s.…
