This collection of plays aims to present accurate translations of Schnitzler’s works, passing up opportunities to paraphrase and instead flushing out vivid detail and psychological insight by combining a sensitive interpretation of the playwright’s sometimes ironic, sometimes farccical, temperament with a faithful re-creation of dialogue. The volume includes Schnitzler’s popular Roundelay ( La Ronde ) and Anatol , as well as rarely translated works like Professor Bernhardi and Hour of Realizing . There are also additional scenes and an alternative ending to Anatol that are seldom found in translation or even in German versions of the play.
