Theodor Storm: The Writer as Democratic HumanitarianBerg Publishers, 11.06.1992 - 282 Seiten A work which discusses Storm's significance and artistic stature as a champion of democratic humanitarian traditions and aspirations in 19th century Germany. It highlights his critique of Christianity, his vision of capitalism and his analysis of class relationships.
