The Awakening Of Spring

The Awakening of Spring: A Tragedy of Childhood is a play written by Frank Wedekind and originally published in 1891. The play explores the sexual awakening of a group of teenagers and the societal taboos that prevent them from expressing their desires. The story follows a group of young boys and girls who struggle to navigate the complexities of adolescence, including sexual desire, social pressure, and parental expectations. The play is considered controversial for its frank portrayal of sexuality and its criticism of traditional values. Despite being banned in several countries upon its initial release, it has since become a seminal work in the canon of modern European drama. The play has been adapted into several films and stage productions, and continues to be studied and performed today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
