Wedekind: The Lulu Plays Summary

Wedekind: The Lulu Plays: Earth Spirit; The Marquis of Keith; Pandora's Box by Frank Wedekind

Includes the Earth Spirit, The Marquis of Keith and Pandora's Box In Earth Spirit and Pandora's Box, better known as The Lulu Plays, we see Lulu's rapid descent into degradation, culminating in her violent death. She has destroyed a succession of bourgeois males, both disturbed and attracted by her lack of inhibition. In The Marquis of Keith, the eponymous hero destroys his most meaningful relationship through his single-minded pursuit of satisfaction, both sexual and financial.

About Frank Wedekind

Frank Wedekind (1864-1918) had a seminal effect on the development of twentieth-centruy German drama. His plays portray a society riven by the demands of lust and greed, and his powerful writing continues to disturb and shock; his plays were still being refused a performing licence in Britain in the 1960s.
