The bilingual (Slovak-German) publication maps the first period of life and works of the important German-speaking actor and director Max Reinhardt, whose ancestors were born in Slovakia and he spent a short part of his life there, although he spent most of it in Austria, Germany and the USA. Max Reinhardt's ancestors (September 9, 1873 Baden, Austria - October 31, 1943 New York, USA) The Goldmanns came from Stupava, a town twenty kilometers away from Bratislava. It is proven that their three generations lived there. In 1869 they moved from Stupava to Vienna. Later, Reinhardt returned to Bratislava for the summer season of 1893 to perform as an actor at the Arena Theater, which stood on the right bank of the Danube in Petrzalka. These are the two basic facts of this book. For Reinhardt, these were not the only contacts with Bratislava. His Theater in der Josefstadt performed here regularly. His divorce process took place in Bratislava for several years. But the truth is that this city remained only a short episode in his life. Artistic and business activities in Vienna, Salzburg, Berlin and the USA far exceeded what he did in Bratislava. But even this episode is a stone in the mosaic of his life, and therefore it cannot be left unnoticed. At the same time, in this book, the authors try to shed light on the broader context of his theatrical beginnings in Austria and Germany.
