First Edition of Hofmannsthal's 1905 first drama in five acts, an adaptation of Thomas Otway's 1682 English drama Venice Preserved, in which he made use of George's physical and intellectual traits, as a model for his characters. Many critics have commented that the 1905 drama Das gerettete Venedig not only has "homosexual undertones, " but that the relationship of Pierre and Jaffier, the two main characters, is a direct mirroring of the conflict between George and Hofmannsthal. Work is dedicated to Stefan George, "In Bewinderung und Freudnschaft." Very slight soiling to bottom left corner of front wrap, bottom of spine crimped, pages clean and bright.233 pp.
