Dr.. Schinz devoted himself to con-
sideration of Sudermann at his German
lecture Thursday at the house of Miss
Sargent of Hammond street. Suder-
mann he characterized as the best writ
er of dramas in Germany today. He is
a so-called realistic and socialistic au-
thor, and social prejudices are what he
fights against, especially against the
caste system, which is still so powerful
in Europe, in Germany particularly
Sudermann, said DR.. Schinz, has not
been valued in America at his true
worth. because the social prejudices
which he attacks are either non-eXist-
ent here. or else of minor magnitude;
| consequently readers and the theatre
going public do not feel so deeply with
him. or rather with his characters. This
is true with "Ehre," still truer with
"Magda," where the author fights
against the absolute power of parents
over their children The relations OF
parents and children in America are SO
much more reasonable than in the older
countries of Europe that Americans fail
to appreciate this presentation of the
subject. DIR. Schinz concluded with an
analysis of these two standard works OF
! Sudermann's.
