![[Berg, Alban. (1885–1935)] Wedekind, Frank. (1864–1918) "As a fee for similar events, I have always received 300 marks" - Autograph Letter Signed](http://www.schubertiademusic.com/cdn/shop/files/Wedekind_Frank._1864-1918_AutographLetter26323.jpg?v=1791920930)
ALS from the influential German playwright, author of Spring Awakening and the Lulu plays, to "Dear Doctor," who had invited him to give a lecture. Munich, June 18, 1904; 2/3 p., large 4to. In part (translated from the German): "... Please allow me to express my sincerest thanks for your honorable invitation. January would be the most convenient time for the lecture. As a fee for similar events, I have always received 300 marks ..." Small fold tears, slightly browned and stained at the edges. 10.75 x 8.25 inches; 27.5 x 21 cm.
The work of the influential German playwright often criticizes bourgeois attitudes (particularly towards sex), and is considered to anticipate expressionism. His plays Erdgeist (Earth Spirit, 1895) and Die Büchse der Pandora (Pandora's Box, 1904) were adapted by Alban Berg to form the libretto of his "Lulu."
