There appear to be two plays named Die Versöhnung ("The reconciliation" or "the appeasement") in German, one by August von Kotzebue (1798) and another by Andreas Josef von Guttenberg (1800). Both apparently generated from Vienna at approximately the same time, though they are clearly different plays. Both have been performed in South Africa.
