6. On The Marionette Theatre By Heinrich Von Kleist Essay, translated by Idris Parry. Includes some background information on the author and his thinking. http://southerncrossreview.org/9/kleist.htm

On the Marionette Theatre by Heinrich von Kleist Translated by Idris Parry Heinrich von Kleist (1777-1811) followed family tradition and became an army officer, but left in 1799 to study philosophy and maths. He seems to have been inwardly overwhelmed on discovering Kant's dictum of the ultimate unknowability of truth. Kleist's work was dominated by the tension between his inner certainty of the validity of the human soul life and the apparent impossibility of discovering meaning in outer existence. He Wrote several plays - mainly tragedies - and numerous short stories, including "The Dark Tale of Michael Kohlhaas". Idris Parry began his introductory essay to the "Marionette Theatre" (from his collection "Hand to Mouth") as follows: "Heinrich von Kleist wrote his essay 'On the Marionette Theatre' in 1810. The calm statement of this work suggests a man firmly in control. A year later Kleist shot himself. He was thirty-four. On the centenary of his death, the critics agreed he was a hundred years ahead of his time. In 1977 they said he'd come into the world (on 18 October 1777) two hundred years too early.... I think therefore I am. The theme of Kleist's essay could be a continuation of that famous sentence, a continuation which might go like this: I think, therefore I am aware of myself, and if I am aware of myself I must know that I am a separate entity, aware of and therefore apart from my surroundings; but true knowledge must be complete, connected, indivisible; so separation into subject and object, self and surroundings means distance from knowledge, consequently uncertainty and doubt.

How many voices of humor and hope do you encounter on the Internet? We need your support. Thank you. The Marionette Theater by Heinrich von Kleist Translated by Robert Lonoke When I was spending the winter of 1801 in M., one evening in a public garden I met Mr. C., who had of late been employed in that city as premier danseur of the opera and had been enjoying extraordinary success with the public. I told him that I had been surprised to find him several times in a marionette theater which had been set up in the marketplace and which entertained the populace with little dramatic burlesques, interspersed with songs and dances. He assured me that the pantomime of these puppets gave him much pleasure, and he made the emphatic observation that a dancer who wants to improve could learn many things from them. Since the remark, by the manner in which he uttered it, seemed to me more than a mere fancy, I sat down beside him in order to find out more concerning the grounds on which he could base such a curious assertion. He asked me whether I had not found some of the puppets' dance movements, especially those of the smaller figures, very graceful.

HEINRICH VON KLEIST This article was originally published in The German Drama of the Nineteenth Century Purchase Plays by Heinrich von Kleist T HE great writer who, after the death of Schiller , might have been named to continue the evolution of German drama to modern and national form could find no hearing in the age of Romanticism and of Fate-drama. Thanks to the exertions of Ludwig Tieck, public attention began to turn to him in the second decade of the nineteenth century without, however, his being recognized in his true greatness and historical importance. Only much later did it become clear that HEINRICH VON KLEIST, while he was aiming to unite the art of Aeschylus and Shakespeare , was on the way to a new and national drama in harmony with the spirit of the age. A few months only of happy life were granted him while he led in Berne the modest life of a poet in company with the sons of Wieland and Soloman Gessner and with Heinrich Zschokke. For a time he now allowed his Robert Guiskard to drop into the background, and his first work, Die Familie Schroffenstein , took form. In spite of the fact that Ludwig Uhland, who looked after its publication, subjected it to a thorough revision, even in this form it still bears testimony to the independent originality of Kleist, scarcely influenced by any predecessors.
