«Der Hagestolz» is a collection of stories by Adalbert Stifter, published by Swan Buch-Vertrieb in paperback (473 pages, in German).
The narrative contrasts two ways of understanding life through Victor and his uncle, an old loner who lives in seclusion on an island. Their encounter pits rest against action, light against darkness, openness against confinement; the old man ends up telling his own biography to steer his nephew away from an equally isolated fate.
Written in late 1844, it was first published in the almanac «Iris. Taschenbuch für das Jahr 1845». This edition includes an introduction by Karl-Heinz Ebnet and belongs to the series «Die Deutschen Klassiker».
A work for readers of nineteenth-century German literature and classic fiction.
Adalbert Stifter was a Bohemian-Austrian writer, poet, painter, and pedagogue. He was notable for the vivid natural landscapes depicted in his writing and has long been popular in the German-speaking world.
