Dantons Tod by Georg Büchner
"Dantons Tod" by Georg Büchner is a drama in four acts written between mid-January and mid-February 1835. Set during the French Revolution's Reign of Terror in March and April 1794, the play depicts the final confrontation between revolutionary leader Danton and Robespierre. As moderate and radical factions have been eliminated, Danton's calls to end the Terror threaten Robespierre's power. The work remains Büchner's only drama published during his lifetime, though heavily censored.
