The dramatic works of Jacob Locher (1471-1528) have largely fallen into oblivion. Introduced here in chronological order, they are set within their cultural contexts. In 1495, Jacob Locher was the first German author to stage a tragedy on the classical model. His stage presentations of contemporary events placed the theatre as a means of influencing politics in the Holy Roman Empire. By 1513, he produced a further six plays in Latin relating to politics and science policy.Dietl, Cora is the author of 'Die Dramen Jacob Lochers Und Die Fruhe Humanistenbuhne Im Suddeutschen Raum ', published 2005 under ISBN 9783110183504 and ISBN 3110183501.
