Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Robert Walser wrote many of his manuscripts in a highly enigmatic, shrunken-down form. These narrow strips of paper, covered with tiny ant-like pencil markings a millimeter high, came to light only after the author's death in 1956.At first considered random restless pencil markings or a secret code, the microscripts were in time discovered to be a radically miniaturized form of antique German script: a whole story was deciphered on the back of a business card. These twenty-five short pieces address schnapps, rotten husbands, small town life, elegant jaunts, the radio, swine, jealousy, and marriage proposals. Kalman, Maira (illustratore).…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Sie galten und gelten als die rätselhaftesten Manuskripte in der deutschsprachigen Literatur dieses Jahrhunderts: Robert Walsers so genannte Mikrogramme. Seit man von ihrer Existenz weiß, wurden sie immer wieder als Geheimschrift angesehen und in Verbindung zu Walsers psychiatrischer Internierung gebracht. Beides ist abwegig. Höchst geheimnisvoll und nur unter größten Schwierigkeiten zu entziffern sind sie gleichwohl.Die Texte stammen aus den Jahren 1924 bis 1932 und spiegeln Walsers letzte Jahre in Bern ebenso wie die Zeit in der Psychiatrischen Klinik Waldau. Nach wie vor versucht Walser, in allem Wechsel von Erlebnissen und Stimmungen 'sich selbst willkommen zu heißen' oder, wie er an anderer Stelle sagt, 'Unentweihtheiten' an sich zu entdecken.Es war zuletzt ein kruder Verwaltungsakt der Klinikleitung, der seinem Schreiben ein Ende bereitete. Im Juni 1933 verlegte man Walser in die Heilanstalt Herisau, von welchem Tage an er seine Bleistifte nicht mehr anrührte. Kalman, Maira (illustratore).…
