Book Description
Excerpt from There Are Crimes and Crimes: A Comedy Intoxication, which indicates the part played by the cham pagne in the plunge of Maurice from the pinnacles of success to the depths of misfortune. Strindberg has more and more come to see that a moderation verging closely on asceticism is wise for most men and essential to the man of genius who wants to fulfil his divine mission. And he does not scorn to press home even this comparatively humble lesson with the naive directness and fiery zeal which form such conspicuous features of all his work.

Book Description
Excerpt from There Are Crimes and Crimes: A Comedy Strindberg was fifty years old when lie wrote "There Are Crimes and Crimes." In the same year, 1899, he produced three of his finest historical dramas: "The Saga of the Folkungs," "Gustavus Vasa," and "Eric XIV." Just before, he had finished "Advent," which lie described as "A Mystery," and which was published together with "There Arc Crimes and Crimes" under the common title of "In a Higher Court." Back of these dramas lay his strange confessional works, "Inferno" and "Legends." and the first two parts of his autobiographical dream-play, "Toward Damascus" - all of which were finished between May, 1897, and some time in the latter part of 1S98. And back of these again lay that period of mental crisis, when, at Paris, in 1895 and 189(5, he strove to make gold by the transmutation of baser metals, while at the same time his spirit was travelling through all the seven hells in its search for the heaven promised by the great mystics of the past. "There Are Crimes and Crimes" may, in fact, be regarded as his first definite step beyond that crisis, of which the preceding works were at once the record and closing chord. When, in 1909, he issued "The Author," being a long withheld fourth part of his first autobiographical series, "The Bondwoman's Son," he prefixed to it an analytical summary of the entire body of his work. Opposite the works from 1897-8 appears in this summary the following passage: "The great crisis at the age of fifty; revolutions in the life of the soul, desert wanderings. Swedenborgian Heavens and Hells." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
