The poor fiddler by
Franz Grillparzer(
Book
)
473 editions published between 1850 and 2020 in 12 languages and held by 1,837 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The 1848 musical novella The Poor Fiddler transports the reader to 19th-century Vienna. The Austrian dramatist Franz Grillparzer (1791-1872) tells of an encounter with an old man who plays the violin for visitors to a fair. Woven into the musician's heartfelt performance is a bittersweet love story, whose progress we soon hear in the fiddler's own words. This partly autobiographical story, is an "integral part of classical storytelling" and was revered as a masterpiece by such prestigious authors as Adalbert Stifter and Franz Kafka

Hero and Leander : tragedy in five acts by
Franz Grillparzer(
Book
)
294 editions published between 1840 and 2020 in 12 languages and held by 1,562 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Tragedy based on Greek mythology "relating the story of Hero, a priestess of Aphrodite who dwelt in a tower in Sestos on the European side of the Hellespont (today's Dardanelles), and Leander, a young man from Abydos on the opposite side of the strait. Leander fell in love with Hero and would swim every night across the Hellespont to spend time with her. Hero would light a lamp at the top of her tower to guide his way. Succumbing to Leander's soft words and to his argument that Aphrodite, as the goddess of love, would scorn the worship of a virgin, Hero allowed him to make love to her. Their trysts lasted through a warm summer. But one stormy winter night, the waves tossed Leander in the sea and the breezes blew out Hero's light; Leander lost his way and drowned. When Hero saw his dead body, she threw herself over the edge of the tower to her death to be with him."--Wikipedia
