About this listen

 Dieses Buch wurde im Juli 1914 vollendet. Der Inhalt? Schnell erzählt: Der Fabrikantensohn Diederich Heßling wird begeisterter Burschenschaftler, drückt sich vorm Militär, schwängert ein Mädchen, heiratet eine andere und arbeitet sich nach und nach zum wichtigsten Bürger der deutschen Kleinstadt Netzig hoch. Ein obrigkeitshöriger Drückeberger, ein kaisertreuer Stammtisch-Agitator, ein intriganter, feiger Kumpan - und ein exemplarischer Menschentypus.

Tatsächlich ist "Der Untertan" einer der ganz großen Romane des letzten Jahrhunderts. Hans Korte spricht das Ganze mit einer Mischung aus so schneidiger Bösartigkeit und hündischer Feigheit, dass es eine schauerliche Freude ist, ihm zuzuhören.©1965 / 1995 Aufbau-Verlag / S. Fischer Verlag (P)1989 Norddeutscher Rundfunk Classics

Lebendig gelesen & Geschichte relevant

The text comes alive in this reading. The story is timeless and the biting, critical humor of Heinrich Mann is at its best. You can also see how much of what became policy during the 3rd Reich was already there, the nationalism, the antisemitism, the anti-feminism. Written in 1914, published only in full in 1918, it is an analysis of the time in form of a novel. The protagonist and its type still exist, so it is worthwhile reading/listening to even after almost 110 years.
