About the Author:
Theodor Fontane (1819-98) was a German novelist and political reporter. Along with Effi Briest, Fontane is remembered for Frau Jenny Treibel, an ironic criticism of middle-class hypocrisy and small-mindedness.

Hugh Rorrison has published extensively on modern German theatre and teaches German film at the University of Leeds.

Helen Chambers organised the first conference on English translations of Fontane in 1992 and teaches German at the University of St Andrews.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Effi Briest ist ein Roman von Theodor Fontane, der von Oktober 1894 bis Maerz 1895 in sechs Folgen in der Deutschen Rundschau abgedruckt wurde, bevor er 1896 als Buch erschien. Das Werk gilt als ein Hoehe- und Wendepunkt des poetischen Realismus der deutschen Literatur: Hoehepunkt, weil der Autor kritische Distanz mit grosser schriftstellerischer Eleganz verbindet; Wendepunkt, weil Fontane damit zum bedeutendsten Geburtshelfer des deutschen Gesellschaftsromans wurde, der wenige Jahre spaeter mit Thomas Manns Roman Buddenbrooks erstmals Weltgeltung erlangen sollte. Thomas Mann verdankt Fontanes Stil zahlreiche Anregungen. Auch der Familienname der Buddenbrooks stammt mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit aus Effi Briest: In Kapitel 28 wird eine Person namens Buddenbrook erwaehnt. Beschrieben wird das Schicksal Effi Briests, die als siebzehnjaehriges Maedchen auf Zureden ihrer Mutter den mehr als doppelt so alten Baron von Innstetten heiratet. Dieser behandelt Effi nicht nur wie ein Kind, sondern vernachlaessigt sie zugunsten seiner karrierefoerdernden Dienstreisen. Vereinsamt in dieser Ehe, geht Effi eine fluechtige Liebschaft mit einem Offizier ein. Als Innstetten Jahre spaeter dessen Liebesbriefe entdeckt, ist er ausserstande, Effi zu verzeihen. Zwanghaft einem ueberholten Ehrenkodex verhaftet, toetet er den verflossenen Liebhaber im Duell und laesst sich scheiden. Effi ist fortan gesellschaftlich geaechtet und wird sogar von ihren Eltern verstossen. Erst drei Jahre spaeter sind diese bereit, die inzwischen todkranke Effi wieder aufzunehmen. Rechtsgeschichtlich spiegelt der Roman die harten Konsequenzen wider, mit denen in der Wilhelminischen AEra UEbertretungen des buergerlichen Moralkodex geahndet wurden.
