A celebration of all things "Mom".The story of Moms, told through photographs by William Reeve, Holy Scripture and prose. Perfect for a Mothers Day gift, birthdays, or "just because".
William Reeve provides a detailed textual analysis of Heinrich von Kleist's drama Das Käthchen von Heilbronn, demonstrating that Kleist drew its poetic images, themes, and general atmosphere from the Prussian aristocratic class into which he had been born. Reeve's comprehensive re-reading of Käthchen throws light on the enigmas and textual incongruities that have puzzled Kleist's commentators in the past.
In Grillparzer's Libussa William Reeve provides an important interpretation of a work that has received little detailed attention from European and American critics. The play has been dealt with in a broader context in numerous monograph-length overviews or introductions to Grillparzer, but this is the first time that it has received the careful consideration it deserves.
