The German Theater V2 is a book that contains two plays, Don Carlos and Count Benyowsky, both translated into English by Benjamin Thompson. Don Carlos is a tragedy written by Friedrich Schiller, which tells the story of the conflict between King Philip II of Spain and his son Don Carlos, who is in love with his stepmother. Count Benyowsky, on the other hand, is a drama by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, which follows the adventures of a Polish nobleman who becomes a leader of a group of rebels in Madagascar. The book provides a glimpse into the German theater tradition and showcases the works of two prominent playwrights of the 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
