Daniel Casper von Lohenstein - Historisch-kritischec Ausgabe by Lothar Mundt & Wolfgang Neuber & Rahn Thomas
Daniel Casper von Lohenstein (1635-1683) is one of the most significant German Baroque writers. He was a lawyer, envoy and Imperial Councillor who wrote numerous elaborate tragedies, together with his main work, the large-scale yet unfinished novel Arminius, which is regarded as a key novel on the social and political situation in the German Empire after the Thirty Years' War. The Berlin Project is the first historical complete commentary. Apart from the literary works, it contains letters and biographical documents, which allow a more profound understanding of the author, his time and his works. The edition is scheduled tocontain 25 volumes, divided into six sections: 1. Lyric poetry, 2. dramas, 3. Arminius, 4. shorter prose works, 5. translations, and 6. letters, official writings, biographical documents, historical documents on the reception of his works. Each volume has an editorial report appended, together with a volume of commentary with detailed information on the history of the material, the sources, factual material and intertextual connections, an exact account of the documentary sources, a comprehensive bibliography of the research literature and an index of names. |
