«Enrique de Ofterdingen» is Novalis's novel of German Romanticism, published by Bruguera in Spanish and in paperback.
Novalis recreates the life of Enrique de Ofterdingen, a thirteenth-century troubadour at the court of Frederick II, turning him into a romantic hero who pursues a poetic ideal. Against Goethe's «Wilhelm Meister», this fragmentary novel is not a spiritual formation but a lyrical journey where prose, poetry, and the blue flower merge.
Original title: Heinrich von Ofterdingen. Posthumous work published in 1802; this 1983 Spanish edition in the Bruguera Libro Amigo collection includes a translation by José Miguel Mínguez.
For readers of classic novels, philosophical narrative, Romantic poetry, and nineteenth-century German literature.
Georg Philipp Friedrich Freiherr von Hardenberg, better known by his pen name Novalis, was a German aristocrat and polymath, who was a poet, novelist, philosopher and mystic. He is regarded as an influential figure of Jena Romanticism.
