Beschreibung

Mathilde Möhring Theodor Fontane - Mathilde, eine ehrgeizige, aber reizlose junge Frau von dreiundzwanzig Jahren, will nur eins: die beschränkte Atmosphäre der elterlichen Wohnung hinter sich lassen und Karriere machen. In dem verbummelten Jurastudenten Hugo Großmann, der als "möblierter Herr" in die Georgenstraße 19 zieht, wittert sie ihre Chance. Sie bugsiert ihn durch das Referendarexamen, macht den vakanten Posten eines Kleinstadtbürgermeisters ausfindig und ist der gute Geist der Kommunalpolitik. Als Hugo plötzlich stirbt, richtet sie ihren Ehrgeiz auf sich selbst. Der Roman "Mathilde Möhring" gehört zu den wichtigsten Werken Fontanes. Er blieb unvollendet und wurde 1906, postum, veröffentlicht. Nun liegt endlich eine nach der Handschrift erarbeitete Textfassung vor.

Autor

Theodor Fontane, novelist, critic, poet, and travel writer, was one of the most celebrated nineteenth-century German men of letters. He was born into a French Huguenot family in the Prussian town of Neuruppin, where his father owned a small pharmacy. His fathers gambling debts forced the family to move repeatedly, and eventually his temperamentally mismatched parents separated. Though Fontane showed early interest in history and literaturejotting down stories in his school notebookshe could not afford to attend university; instead he apprenticed as a pharmacist and eventually settled in Berlin. There he joined the influential literary society Tunnel über der Spree, which included among its members Theodor Storm and Gottfried Keller, and turned to writing. In 1850 Fontanes first published books, two volumes of ballads, appeared; they would prove to be his most successful books during his lifetime. He spent the next four decades working as a critic, journalist, and war correspondent while producing some fifty works of history, travel narrative, and fiction. His early novels, the first of which was published in 1878, when Fontane was nearly sixty, concerned recent historical events. It was not until the late 1880s that he turned to his great novels of modern society, remarkable for their psychological insight: Trials and Tribulations (1888), Irretrievable (1891), Frau Jenny Treibel (1892), and Effi Briest (1895). During his last years, Fontane returned to writing poetry, and, while recovering from a severe illness, wrote an autobiographical novel that would prove to be a late commercial success. He is buried in the French section of the Friedhof II cemetery in Berlin.
