Publisher's Synopsis

For the first time, Volume VII/1 of the Complete Critical Edition presents Eichendorff's complete satirical dramas in reliable textual form. Alongside the better-known dramas, Krieg den Philistern! ("War on the Philistines!") and Die Freier ("The Suitors"), the inclusion of the literary satire Meierbeth's Glück und Ende ("Meierbeth's Luck and End") will help to expand perceptions of Eichendorff's work. The author reveals his most sarcastic side, sparing none of the literary conceits of the second half of the 19th century. The texts Wider Willen ("Against One's Will") and Das Incognito ("The Incognito"), which have been edited from their manuscript versions, also show Eichendorff's sharp sensibility for his times, thus providing important documentation of the politics of the late Romantic era.
