Lenz (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Set against the strikingly beautiful backdrop of the Vosges mountains, Lenz tells the tale of the real-life writer J.M.R. Lenz's nineteen-day stay in Waldersbach in 1778, describing his wanderings around the mountainous surroundings and his worsening fits of madness, eventually culminating in his removal, under guard, to Strasbourg.Valued both as a chillingly convincing exploration of the reality of paranoid schizophrenia and an influential forerunner of literary modernism, this existential drama boasts a prose style startlingly ahead of its time and is a truly original work of literature.

Autorenporträt

Georg Buchner was born in Goddelau in 1813 and died of typhus in 1837, at the age of just 23. In his short life he nonetheless managed to make a significant impact on German literature and it is widely believed that, had he lived longer, he could have achieved the stature of such German literary giants as Goethe and Schiller. More famous for his plays, including Danton's Death, Lenz is Georg Buchner's only known story.
