"This introduction to Elsa Bernstein is excellent... The account given of the reception history of the play is particularly fascinating and thoroughly researched; reception history is a crucial element in understanding this once famous, now far less widely known Jewish woman writer."

Autorenporträt
Elsa Bernstein (1866-1949), though of Jewish descent, was a Christian and a member of Germany's educated elite. During the Holocaust, she survived the Theresienstadt concentration camp through her classification as a prominent person--a status conferred on her through the intercession of Richard Wagner's daughter-in-law, a friend of Hitler. Susanne Kord has published on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century women playwrights in Germany. She has published poetry in several anthologies and journals, and translated German dramas into English.
