ANZENGRUBER, LUDWIG (1839-1889) , Austrian dramatist and novelist, was born at Vienna on the 29th of November 1839. He was educated at the Realschule of his native town, and then entered a bookseller's shop; from 186o to 1867 he was an actor, without, however, displaying any marked talent, although his stage experience later stood him in good
stead
 . In 1869 he became a clerk in the Viennese police department, but having in the following year made a success with his
anti
 -clerical drama, Der Pfarrer von Kirchfeld, he gave up his appointment and devoted himself entirely to literature. He died at Vienna on the loth of December 1889. Anzengruber was exceedingly fertile in ideas, and wrote a
great
  many plays. They are mostly of Austrian
peasant
 
life
 , and although somewhat melancholy in tone are interspersed with
bright
  and witty scenes. Among the best known are Der Meineidbauer (1871), Die Kreuzelschreiber (1872), Der G'wissenswurm (1874), Hand and Herz (1875), Doppelselbstmord (1875), Das vierte Gebot (1877), and Der Fleck auf der Ehr' (1889). Anzengruber also published a novel of considerable merit, Der Schandfleck (1876; remodelled 1884); and various short stories and tales of
village
 
life
  collected under the title Wolken and Sunn'schein (1888).
Anzengruber's collected works, with a
biography
 , were published in to vols. in 1890 (3rd ed. 1897) ; his correspondence has beenedited by A. Bettelheim (1902). See A. Bettelheim, L. Anzengruber (189o) ; L. Rosner, Erinnerungen an L. Anzengruber (1890): H. Sittenberger, Studien zur Dramaturgie der Gegenwart (1899); S. Friedmann, L. Anzengruber (1902).
