Amid that remarkable group of one-act plays, which embodies August Strindberg's maturest work as a playwright, the tragic comedy "Fordringsagare" (The Creditor), occupies a prominent place.

"Fordringsagare" was produced for the first time in 1889, when it was given at Copenhagen as a substitute for "Froken Julie," the performance of which was forbidden by the censor. Four years later Berlin audiences made its acquaintance, since when it has remained the most popular of Strindberg's plays in Germany.
