Three eerie tales from 19th century German

Prosaic lives take on an enigmatic and wider meaning in these three suberb talkes. They go beyond the everyday world to illuminate man's place in a strange and mysterious universe. The Black Spider, Jeremias Gotthelf: The Devil's revenge for being deceived is at the core of this masterly Swiss narrative. An intricate structure, sexual symbolism, and unerring characterization makes this a brilliant example of its genre. The Jews' Beech Tree, Annette von Droste-Hulshoff Based on an actual occurence, this dramatic tale of remorse and expiation anticipated aspects of a much later literary approach. Its author is Germany's geratest poetess. The Rider On The White House, Theodor Storm, With haunting ambience, this famous novella re-creates a legendary figure out of Storm's childhood. In his struggle against society, the protagonist, like some Shakespearean heroes, is destroyed by an excess of his own best qualities. Eathly existence, the authors of these stories attest, is but one aspect of a wider reality. These errie tales are indeed fascinating explorations of man's world.

The first modern translation of one of Theodor Storm's finest stories. Grieshuus is a dense short narrative set against the historical canvas of the wars that swept northern Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries, telling through dramatically shifting perspectives the story of the fall of a noble family whose seat is Grieshuus manor on the north German heath. Supreme in his gift for creating and sustaining atmosphere, Storm interweaves local legends and superstitions with regional chronicles of the period in which eyewitness accounts foretell `terrible times' to come.

Aquis Submersus: Novelle (Classic Reprint) (German Edition)

Europe

In unserem zu dem früher herzoglichen Schlosse gehörigen, seit Menschengedenken aber ganz vernachlässigten "Schloßgarten" waren schon in meiner Knabenzeit die einst im altfranzösischen Stile angelegten Hagebuchenhecken zu dünnen, gespenstischen Alleen ausgewachsen; da sie indessen immerhin noch einige Blätter tragen, so wissen wir Hiesigen, durch Laub der Bäume nicht verwöhnt, sie gleichwohl auch in dieser Form zu schätzen; und zumal von uns nachdenklichen Leuten wird immer der eine oder andre dort zu treffen sein. Wir pflegen dann unter dem dürftigen Schatten nach dem sogenannten "Berg" zu wandern, einer kleinen Anhöhe in der nordwestlichen Ecke des Gartens oberhalb dem ausgetrockneten Bette eines Fischteiches, von wo aus der weitesten Aussicht nichts im Wege steht. Die meisten mögen wohl nach Westen blicken, um sich an dem lichten Grün der Marschen und darüberhin an der Silberflut des Meeres zu ergötzen, auf welcher das Schattenspiel der langgestreckten Insel schwimmt; meine Augen wenden unwillkürlich sich nach Norden, wo, kaum eine Meile fern, der graue spitze Kirchturm aus dem höher belegenen, aber öden Küstenlande aufsteigt; denn dort liegt eine von den Stätten meiner Jugend.
