Like Kokoschka, the Expressionist poet and playwright Walter Hasenclever (1890-1940) was a patient in the sanatorium in Dresden. He feigned a nervous condition to avoid returning to the front. His drama ‘Der Sohn’ (The Son, 1914) is regarded as one of the most important Expressionist works. He saw to it that Kokoschka’s plays were performed in Dresden. Hasenclever’s work was later banned by the Nazis.
