Hannele : 2-näytöksinen unirunoelma by Gerhart Hauptmann

"Hannele: 2-näytöksinen unirunoelma" by Gerhart Hauptmann is a play written in 1893. This groundbreaking work tells the story of a neglected and abused peasant child who, on her deathbed, experiences a vision of divine powers welcoming her into the afterlife. Breaking from Hauptmann's naturalistic style, the play adopts symbolist dramaturgy and includes a dream sequence. It marks the first recorded instance in world literature of a play with a child as its heroine. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
