Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff
Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff (10 March 1788 – 26 November 1857) was a German poet, novelist, playwright, literary critic, translator, and anthologist.〔http://www.britannica.com/biography/Joseph-Freiherr-von-Eichendorff〕 In the field of literature and aesthetics, Eichendorff became one of the major figures of Romanticism〔Cf. J. A. Cuddon: ''The Penguin Dictionary of Literary Terms & Literary Theory'', revised by C. E. Preston. England 1999, p. 770.〕 Some of his works have have been very popular in Germany since their publication and up to the present day.〔Cf. Peter Horst Neumann: ''Eichendorff im Technischen Zeitalter. Zu seinem 200. Geburtstag''. In: Die Zeit/Zeitmagazin 11. März 1988 http://www.zeit.de/1988/11/eichendorff-im-technischen-zeitalter〕
Eichendorff gained repute for his novella ''Aus dem Leben eines Taugenichts'' (Memoirs of a Good-For-Nothing)〔Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff: Memoirs of a Good-For-Nothing''. Ungar, New York 1955. ISBN 0804461341〕 and his poems.〔Cf. Jürgen Thym: ''100 Years Of Eichendorff Songs. Recent Researches in the Music of the Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries, vol. V; A-R Editions, Inc. Madison 1983, p. viii. ISBN 0-89579-173-0〕 ''Memoirs of a Good-For-Nothing'' is a typical romantic novella, whose main themes are wanderlust and love. The protagonist, a miller's son, leaves his father's mill and becomes a gardener at a Viennese palace where he falls in love with the duke's daughter. As she is unattainable, he travels to Italy but then returns and learns that she is the duke's adopted daughter, wherefore they may wed after all.〔http://www.britannica.com/biography/Joseph-Freiherr-von-Eichendorff〕 With its combination of dream and realism, ''Memoirs of a Good-For-Nothing'' is considered to be a high point of Romantic fiction. One critic wrote "Eichendorff’s 'Good-For-Nothing' is the "personification of love of nature and an obsession with hiking."〔Cf. Ernst Alker: ''Die Deutsche Literatur im 19. Jahrhundert'' (1832-1914), 2nd ed., Kröners TB vol.339, Stuttgart 1962, p.27.〕 Thomas Mann said that Eichendorff's Good-For-Nothing possessed "the purity of the folk song and the fairy tale."〔Hanjo Kesting: ''Eichendorff und seine Gesellen. Die Wiederkehr der Romantik''. http://www.frankfurter-hefte.de/upload/Archiv/2008/Heft_01-02/PDF/080102_86_89.pdf〕
A lot of Eichendorff's poems are part of his novellas and stories where they are often sung by one of the protagonists.〔Cf. Katja Löhr: ''Sehnsucht als poetologisches Prinzip bei Joseph von Eichendorff''. Epistemata, Würzburger Wissenschaftliche Schriften, Reihe Literaturwissenschaft vol.248, Würzburg 2003, p.12-13. ISBN 3-8260-2536-9〕 The novella ''Good-For-Nothing'' alone contains 54 of his poems.〔Cf. Wolfdietrich Rasch (Ed.): ''Joseph von Eichendorff. Sämtliche Gedichte''. Deutscher Taschenbuch Verlag München, 1975, p.502/503. ISBN 3-446-11427-0〕
