Egon Friedell, vor 1916 Egon Friedmann, war ein echtes Universalgenie. Er war Journalist, Schriftsteller, Dramatiker, Kritiker, Schauspieler, Kabarettist - und Philosoph! Seine Werke zur Kulturgeschichte sind wunderbar zu lesende Perlen der Literatur. Friedell stürzte sich, verfolgt von den Nazis, aus dem Fenster seiner Wiener Wohnung - er mochte nicht fliehen. Eines seiner berühmtesten Bühnenwerke ist: "Goethe. Eine Groteske in zwei Bildern", in der er den Schulbetrieb aufs Korn nimmt - und Goethe mit Frankfurter Dialekt sprechen lässt.

Opting for the latter, he takes the corporate jet to a private Caribbean island, where the 0.0001% have gathered to decide which one of the world's biggest problems to "eradicate forever."

The story of The Happy Prince has three major themes. Firstly it shows that apparent beauty is nothing and the real beauty is to bestow love and sacrifice. Secondly, it discusses that love and sacrifice are two saving forces. Thirdly, it shows that there is a large gap between rich and poor people the rulers and the masses. When the happy prince is alive he lives a happy life without sorrows, he is living a care free life but after his death he sees through a tall Colum that life has another view except happiness and that is helplessness poverty, hypocrisy and corruption of elite and ruling class.

Gretchen may be a complete fraud, but she's a beneficent one. So if 'cleansing' the historic property will help a nice old man get on with his retirement and put some much-needed cash in her pockets at the same time, who's she to say no?

Written in a hospital tent to the sound of gunfire and shells falling, Cicely Hamilton drew on her experiences working in France during WW1 to tell the story of William Tully and his new bride Griselda, who are wrenched away from their all-consuming interests – socialism and votes for women – and plunged into the almost dream-like horror of war. As brutal tragedy strikes, their attitude to both pacifism and patriotism is altered and their lives are changed forever.

One of the greatest satires in American literature, Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court begins when Hank Morgan, a skilled mechanic in a nineteenth-century New England arms factory, who is struck on the head during a quarrel and awakens to find himself among the knights and magicians of King Arthur's Camelot.

Story
Наталка Полтавка Івана Котляревського — це романтично-сатирична п'єса про любов і вірність. Наталка і Петро кохають одне одного, однак злидні і бідність змушують їх розлучитися, а в цей час до дівчини сватається багатий возний Тетерваковський, нелюбий її серцю. Однак, для закоханих матеріальний достаток не є важливішим за щирі почуття. Перемежована піснями і легким гумором, Наталка Полтавка Івана Котляревського є класичним українським драматургічним твором. П'єса написана двома мовами — українською та російською.
