Immensee (novella)
''Immensee'' (''Bee's Lake''; 1849 and 1851) is a novella by German author Theodor Storm. It was the work that made him famous and remains to this day one of his most widely read.
==History==
''Immensee'' was first published in ''Biernatzki's Volksbuch'' in December 1849 when the author was well known regionally, but with the revised edition 1851, he became famous all over Germany and then the world. By the time of his death in 1888, it saw 33 editions in 17 languages. Storm revised it using some comments from his friend Tyco Mommsen and republished it in 1851 in ''Sommergeschichten und Lieder'' and finally as a single work edition in 1852. The first English translation appeared in 1858 in Henry Colburn's ''New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal'' with a second version first appearing in the USA in 1863. It was Storm's best selling work and remains to this day one of his most widely read, along with ''The Rider on the White Horse'' and ''Pole Poppenspäler''.
On the surface it is a simple love story divided into ten scenes as framed by the remembrances of Reinhardt as an old man thinking back to his youth, his childhood love for Elisabeth, and his friend Erich who ends up marrying her. The story thus takes place over the course of an entire life. It is autobiographical to some degree with echoes of Storm's own life. The novel is richly symbolic. Wiebke Strehl said that "Growing interest on the part of twentieth-century literary scholars indicate that there is much more to this story than meets the eye." Other critics have countered it is crudely symbolic and overly sentimental.
