Description

This scholarly work by De Gruyter challenges the common view that August Wilhelm Iffland managed the Berlin National Theatre from 1796 to 1814 through a purely economic lens. While many compare his leadership to Goethe in Weimar, this study looks deeper into how economic and aesthetic values were formed within the theater and its surrounding environment. The book provides a detailed analysis of repertoire choices, theater criticism, stage imagery, and various plays from the era. It offers a comprehensive look at the complex processes that shaped the theatrical landscape of the time. Readers can explore the historical context through a specialized documentary appendix that includes both text and visual components. The visual section contains primary sources that illustrate the period of Ifflands leadership in Berlin, making it a valuable resource for students and historians of performing arts and theater history.
