Die Versöhnung

("The reconciliation") There appear to be two plays by this name 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 were performed in South Africa.
