The year 1915 was marked by unusual activity by way of
bringing Schnitzler before the eyes of merciens. The outstand-
ing event of the year was the appearance of Fraulein else which
was the first of Schnitzler's works to be published by Simon and

tenth printing. In 1927, after Simon and Schuster had published
