Produktbeschreibung

"Michael Kohlhaas" is an engrossing work by the German author Heinrich von Kleist, based on a 16th-century story of Hans Kohlhase. According to early modern German versions, Kohlhase was a merchant whose grudge against a Saxon nobleman developed into a full-blown feud against the state of Saxony, thus violating the Eternal Peace of 1495. The movement ended in Kohlhase's execution in March 1540.

Autorenporträt

Heinrich von Kleist (1777-1811) was a German poet, dramatist, novelist, short-story writer, and journalist. Along with his older contemporaries Goethe and Schiller, he was one of the great innovative forces in the early Romantic movement. After serving in the Prussian Army during the Rhine campaign of 1796, Kleist enrolled in Viadrina University, where he studied law and philosophy. Eventually, after much travel, he settled in Berlin. He committed double suicide with a terminally ill woman.
