Encyclopedia Article
Georg Kaiser (1878-1945), German dramatist, born in Magdeburg. His first successful work was The Citizens of Calais (1914; trans. 1946). It was followed by plays in the expressionist style, dealing with the impact of the modern machine age, such as From Morn to Midnight (1916; trans. 1922) and Der Silbersee (The Silver Lake, 1933), which had music by the German American composer Kurt Weill. Many of Kaiser's later plays were written in Switzerland, in exile from the Nazi regime. His final work was a trilogy, Zweimal Amphitryon (Amphitryon Retold), Pygmalion, and Bellerophon (published posthumously in 1948).
