Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Home of the Puppet-Play: An Address
It was probably much the same in India as in Europe. I have already mentioned that Maya and Visarada, the only two puppet~makers whose names we know, are described as mechanicians.42 We are entitled to assume that in the puppet-show the 577174 (l/ezim was the actor, who moved the puppets and spoke for them; the sl/zzipa/ea the man whose duties consisted, first and foremost, in making, mending, and putting them on the stage. However thatqmay be, it is certain that two of the most important members of the personnel of the oldest Indian stage have, as their names show, been taken over from the puppet-play. And this is not the only fact which tends to prove that the Indian drama was developed out of the puppet-play. Other facts point to the same conclusion.

Excerpt from The Home of the Puppet-Play: An Address
An Address delivered by Richard Pischel on assuming the office of Rector of the Königliche Vereinigte Friedrichs-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, on the 12th July, 1900.
Most Honourable Assembly!
Among the ineffaceable impressions which we retain from earliest childhood to ripest old age, we must include the recollection of the time when we first heard from our mother's lips the immortal fairy tales of Snow-white and the Seven Dwarfs, Dame Holle and Goldilocks, and Little Red Riding Hood and the wicked wolf. Our delight in all these beings became still greater when we saw them afterwards in flesh and blood before us on the stage. Nowadays the Christmas fairy tales are produced for children with lavish splendour, and owing to the gorgeous externals the simple story is often not duly appreciated. But those of us who were children in the fifties and sixties or earlier in the nineteenth century, had to be content with plainer fare. In those days the stage consisted of a platform erected in a room only partially lighted by oil-lamps, and furnished with wooden benches, the actors being puppets.
