This book focuses on the precursor role of Ludwig Tieck in the Romantic revolution in drama which is seen in his fantastic comedy Puss-in-Boots (1797), a precocious benign forerunner of theatre of the absurd. Tieck's contribution is examined in the light of key dramatists of several strands of modernism.
