	Gender-Laughter-Media: Raluca Cernahoschi's Paper
		Der Besuch der alten Dame exists in two English versions: Maurice Valency's adaptation from 1958, which premiered on Broadway on May 5th of the same year under the direction of Peter Brook, with Lynn Fontanne as Claire Zachanassian, and Patrick Bowles' translation from 1962.
		This shock, Knapp contends, is part of the gradual unmasking of Claire Zachanassian, not as the grotesquely funny figure she at first seems to be, given her unusual entourage and personal appearance or the stunted rebirth of her love affair with Ill, but as "eine neue Variante des rächenden Gottes" from Dürrenmatt's early work (Ibid.).
		Beyond the question of whether Claire Zachanassian, were she an individual figure, would necessarily have to be "böse" (in which case, we would have returned to Klarmann's model), this conclusion seems to me to necessitate the question of whether this interpretation frees the figure from gender considerations as well as it does from moral ones.

	Literary Encyclopedia: Der Besuch der alten Dame [The Visit] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-30)
		When Friedrich Dürrenmatt wrote his “tragische Komödie” (tragic comedy) Der Besuch der alten Dame [The Visit, 1956], he had already tested his innovative concept of tragicomedy in the previous play, Die Ehe des Herrn Mississippi [The Marriage of Mr.
		The play is still in the repertoire of theaters around the globe and has made its way into the canon of modern “classics” for students and readers alike.
		The play’s historical background is the boom period in the second phase of the Swiss “economic miracle” (1952-58): a time of prosperity for many and of heartless disregard for those on the fringes.

	Friedrich Dürrenmatt
		The politically active author gained fame largely due to his avant-garde dramas, philosophically deep crime novels, and often macabre satire.

	Friedrich Dürrenmatt
		While the classical three-act construction of the play — with the first act serving as exposition, the second as complication, and the third as denouement — gives the impression of clarity and symmetry, the shifts in the mood of the play, from comedy to tragedy and back, continue to defy expectations and baffle interpretations.
		Dürrenmatt’s decision to recast his protagonist as a woman avenging an injury sustained a long time ago at the hands of a man has certainly complicated the question of necessity in the play.
		Claire mentions her first husband, the billionaire Zachanassian, only once, but the mention is telling for her relationship with the male power structure: Er war ein klassischer Mann, der alte Finanzriese mit seiner unermeßlichen Ölflotte und seinen Rennställen, besaß noch Milliarden.
