Abstract In this introduction to Daniel Kehlmann's Resurrection, which appears in the same issue of Common Knowledge, the editor puts the play in the context of a series of intense, alarming, experimental “dramaticules” that the journal has published, beginning in 1992. These include works by Donald Davie, Susan Sontag, Raymond Carver, Eugene Vvedensky, Péter Nádas, and Greil Marcus, along with commentaries on them by Sontag and Edward Albee.
