Features: Collection of Yang Wuneng's translations. This volume includes Schiller's famous play The Robbers and Lessing's masterpiece Lessing Fables.
The Robbers: The story of this play takes place in a German principality in the 18th century. The son of the prime minister, von Walter, falls in love with the daughter of a musician, Luise Miller. However, to gain sufficient political capital for himself, the prime minister attempts to arrange a marriage between his son and the mistress of the duke, Countess Milfort, at any cost, thereby separating the two genuinely in love young people. An insidious conspiracy hangs over these two young people.
Lessing Fables: This is the representative work of the world-renowned fable master Lessing. The stories included are concise yet powerful in their ability to awaken and inspire. They contain both sharp satire that can strike enemies with deadly force, as well as enjoyable and enlightening treats for the mind. It can be said that it is a classic work worthy of comparison with Aesop's Fables.
