Volume 14 adds the edition of two early and one late play to Christian Weise's Collected Works: "Die Triumphirende Keuschheit" (Triumphant Chastity, 1668) and "Die beschützte Unschuld" (Protected Innocence, 1673) highlight thematic and dramaturgical resources of Weise's famous plays for the school theatre of Zittau. "Die Unvergnügte Seele" (The discontented Soul, 1688) mirrors the reassessment of concepts of protestant piety in the later works.
