Book: Plays One: Transformation, Masses Man Hoppla, We're Alive! Ernst Toller was the most prominent of the German Expressionist playwrights. "Transformation" is a poetic distillation in stations of the author's conversion from patriot to pacifist in the First World War. In Masses Man, utopian socialist realism clashes with Leninist revolutionary violence. With "Hoopla We're Alive ," Toller espoused "new sobriety" and presented a contemporary political cross-section of Berlin.
