Story
In this volume we examine the German language. Or rather the authors who wrote in German but are here translated into English. German is most often called the language of philosophers due to its precision and clarity. However, if you’ve studied German, you will know that sentence construction can be difficult to grasp. However, within these stories the language of these great talents express themselves in dazzling prose and searching narratives. And the characters? Clearly the works of genius.

Story
Heinrich von Kleist wurde 1777 in Frankfurt (Oder) geboren. Er starb 1811 in Berlin. Die Novelle "Michael Kohlhaas" (1808) zählt zu den bekanntesten Werken Kleists und behandelt auf sprachlich virtuose Weise die Themen Recht, Gerechtigkeit und Selbstjustiz. Der Novelle liegt ein authentischer Fall aus dem 16. Jahrhundert zugrunde. Sven Görtz über seine Interpretation: "Wenn Kleist heute leben würde und Fußballer wäre, wir würden ihn einen Dribbelkünstler nennen müssen...

Story
Bei ihrem Erscheinen wegen der angedeuteten Vergewaltigung als Skandalgeschichte empfunden, gilt die Novelle "Die Marquise von O..." heute als frühes Beispiel weiblicher Emanzipation. Am Schicksal der Marquise, die in einem existenziellen Konflikt zu sich selbst findet und Selbstständigkeit gewinnt, hinterfragt Heinrich von Kleist traditionelle Werte und die Konventionen familiären Lebens. Inhalt: Die Marquise von O..., die seit dem Tod ihres Mannes mit ihren Kindern wieder bei ihren Eltern in einer Stadt in Oberitalien lebt, wird schwanger, ohne zu wissen, wie sie das Kind empfangen hat.

Story
The German peoples spent centuries as tribes and regions without being a whole. Otto von Bismarck was instrumental in unifying these central European states into one country albeit based on the militaristic doctrine of Prussia. In the 20th Century its history was blighted by its capacity to resort to war to fulfill its ambitions, or right its perceived historical wrongs. In this volume the short stories by its greatest authors readily attest that their talents are equal to the greatest in World literature.

Bereits mit diesem Satz, dem ersten Satz der 1807 veroffentlichten Novelle, katapultiert Kleist den Leser in medias res.

Die Erzählung "Die Marquise von O..." des deutschen Schriftstellers Heinrich von Kleist erzählt die fesselnde Geschichte der Marquise, die sich unerklärlicherweise schwanger wiederfindet, ohne zu wissen, wie es dazu kam. Die Handlung entfaltet sich in einer Welt von Intrigen, Missverständnissen und unerwarteten Wendungen, während die Marquise versucht, die Wahrheit über ihre ungewöhnliche Situation herauszufinden. Kleists Meisterwerk erforscht auf eindrucksvolle Weise die Komplexität menschlicher Beziehungen und die Unvorhersehbarkeit des Schicksals.

Antonio Piachi, ein wohlhabender Güterhändler in Rom, war genötigt, in seinen Handelsgeschäften zuweilen große Reisen zu machen. Er pflegte dann gewöhnlich Elvire, seine junge Frau, unter dem Schutz ihrer Verwandten, daselbst zurückzulassen. Eine dieser Reisen führte ihn mit seinem Sohn Paolo, einem elfjährigen Knaben, den ihm seine erste Frau geboren hatte, nach Ragusa. Es traf sich, dass hier eben eine pestartige Krankheit ausgebrochen war, welche die Stadt und Gegend umher in großes Schrecken setzte.

Story
Die Erzählung "Der Findling" gehört zum 2. Band von Kleists "Erzählungen", der auch "Der Zweikampf" und "Die Verlobung von St. Domingo" enthält. Sie erscheint 1811, in Kleists Todesjahr. Die Handlung spielt im 14. Jh. und basiert auf den1370 entstandenen Chroniques de France von Jean Froissarts. Neben dem beschrieben Kriminalfall und dem damit verbundenen Verrat interessiert sich Kleist vor allem für die Fragwürdigkeit des Gottesurteils, für das der Zweikampf in jenen Zeiten galt. Eingelesen hat die Erzählung "Der Findling" Elmar Nettekoven, der schon einige der bekanntesten Erzählungen Kleists erarbeitet hat.
