The Modern Drama by Emma Goldman is a book that explores the evolution of drama in the modern era. The book delves into the works of various playwrights and examines how they have contributed to the development of drama as an art form.

She also discusses the social and political contexts in which these plays were created and how they reflect the issues of their time. The book is a comprehensive study of the modern drama, providing readers with a deeper understanding of the art form and its significance in contemporary culture. It is a valuable resource for students of literature, theater, and cultural studies, as well as anyone interested in the history and development of drama.Intellectual Germany had to take refuge in the literature of other countries, in the works of Ibsen, Zola, Dalldet, Maupassant, and especially in the great works of Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, and Turgeniev. But as no country can long maintain a standard of culture without a literature and drama related to its own soil, so Germany gradually began to develop a drama reflecting the life and the struggles of its own people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
