Grabbe, Christian Dietrich

   Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Grabbe, Christian Dietrich (1801–1836)

German dramatist. His plays anticipate realism, but they lack cohesion and the action is often confused and contradictory. Among them are Don Juan und Faust 1829, Friedrich Barbarossa 1829, Heinrich VI 1830, and Napoleon, oder die Hundert Tage 1831.

They were not popular with the audiences of the day and Grabbe died young from despair and drink.
