Contents
Translations and adaptations
Translated into Dutch as De Verwarring by Jan Steven van Esveldt Holtrop Published in Amsterdam by W. Holtrop, 1803.
Bosman (1928, p. 79) suggests that it may have been translated into Dutch as De Moetwillige Jongen by an anonymous author as early as 1802, though there is some doubt about this, since this is a year before the play's original German publication - unless this was a pirated version. The other alternative is that De Moetwillige Jongen is an original Dutch play. (See De Moetwillige Jongen)
