Zschokke, Heinrich
Der Zerbrochene Krug Text in German
New York N. Y. U. S. A.: American Book Company 1902. Hard Cover. Very Good. Very Good. No Jacket The Broken Jug German: Der Zerbrochne Krug is a play written by Heinrich von Kleist. Kleist first conceived the idea for the play in 1802 upon looking at a copper engraving in Heinrich Zschokke's house entitled "Le juge ou la cruche cassèe. " He along with some of his friends decided to set down their own personal interpretations. Goethe first staged the play in Weimar in 1808. As a comedy The Broken Jug mocks the failings of human nature and the judicial system in a forgiving way. It is similar to Sophocles' tragedy Oedipus Rex in that in both plays the judge is guilty but different insofar as Adam knows from the start who is guilty as does the audience and is trying his hardest to conceal the truth. Text is in German. <br/><br/> American Book Company hardcover

Bound in brown buckram 1220 pages in Very Good condition with 369 illustrations and in original German language. this essential reference work is considered "A classical and a standard Work in Neurology". MacHenry. The leader of German neurology during the latter part of the nineteenth century was Hermann Oppenheim 1858/1919 who began his neurological career as an assistant of Westphal at the Charité in Berlin. Oppenheim studied all aspects of neurology and psychiatry making tremendous contributions to both fields. In this way he actively enhanced the development of modern neurology of the twentieth century. Oppenheim set forth an original description of amyotonia congenita Oppenheim's disease and coined the term dystonia musculorum deformans. His interest in neurosurgery and brain tumors led him in 1890 to diagnose the first brain tumor that was surgically removed. Oppenheim's text-book a landmark in neurology passed through seven german editions. With each separate disease entity in this work Oppenheim gives references to the previous literature making it a valuable reference source for neurological disease for physicians at that time".
