Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1965, Annette von Droste-Hülshoff is the first book about the great German poetess of the early nineteenth century in English. Delicate, fey, over-sensitive, unstable, with the intellect often described as unbecomingly masculine, it is easy to see how Annette von Droste-Hülshoff was bound to flout the conventions of the conservative society she lived in and to suffer accordingly. But melancholy and despairing as many of her poems are, we are never allowed to imagine her as a weak person. Margaret Mare is careful to show us her trenchant humour, her gift of mimicry, her generosity to her friends, the resolution which made her refuse, in the middle of a dangerous illness, to treat herself ‘like a soap bubble or a soft egg’—giving us a full picture of the woman of genius who could prophesy confidently that her works would still be read a hundred years after her death. Divided into three parts the book deals with the poet’s life and background, detailed interpretations of selected poems, and, the poet’s treatment of supernatural themes, her epics and prose works, her style and use of images. This book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of poetry, literature, German literature, European literature, and comparative literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a biography of the poet whose reputation moves between two extremes and is proclaimed by many to be Germany's greatest female poet, yet is little known outside Germany. The author attempts to place her in the current of the German Post-Romantic era and analyses her works in their literary context. He shows how the popular view of the writer hopelessly confuses her life and works in a tangle of myth and legend and also includes some special translations of excerpts from the poems.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this study has been to give a new analytic assessment of the work of Annette von Droste-Hülshoff within its European historical and literary framework, taking into account informed literary opinion from the Droste's time up to the present day. The first half of the Nineteenth Century was an age of transition, of ideological and social change. This climate of change is perceptible in her work. The authoress has attempted also to trace Annette's own «Übergang» from the derivative to the original. She anticipated some ideas and practice of Naturalism, while never losing her feeling for the preternatural and inexplicable in the universe and the human psyche.
Download or read book Gods Sorely Tested Child written by Marion Tymms and published by Memoirs Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though the name of Annette von Droste-Hülshoff was little known during her lifetime, she is now recognised, more than 160 years after her death, as a significant German poet. Her work is linguistically challenging and her imagery taxing, but a study of it can prove richly rewarding. This book aims to open up this opportunity to English-speaking readers.Conscious that it would be both difficult and inappropriate to attempt to separate Droste-Hülshoff’s work from the woman, her life and the religious climate in which she lived, Marion Tymms, a scholar of German literature for more than half a century, has written God’s sorely-tested child to offer new insight into the author’s life and work, focusing on her poetic cycle Das Geistliche Jahr (The Spiritual Year) and presenting a complete translation of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a true story, this haunting tale centers on two brutal murders--the first of a local forester and the second of a Jewish moneylender near a beech tree--and the impact these events have on the life of Friedrich Mergel, a herdsman with a turbulent family history. A prototype of the murder mystery and a thoughtful examination of village society, this intriguing novella contains hints of the Gothic and the uncanny, including ominous thunderstorms, mysterious disappearances, eerie doppelgangers and grizzly discoveries, as well as a famously ambiguous climax.

Book excerpt: The literary achievement of Annette von Droste-Hülshoff is here seen as both original and closely linked with certain events in her life and with the age in which she lived: the opening years of the industrial age and of «modern times». Yet while much attention is given to her work, the present book is largely concerned with making the personality of this interesting woman known through her Letters and an account of her life, her background and her many revealing friendships.
