(Fiction. Of this picaresque masterpiece of German fiction...)
Fiction. Of this picaresque masterpiece of German fiction, Thomas Mann wrote, "It is the rarest kind of monument to life and literature, for it has survived almost three centuries and will survive many more. It is a story of the most basic kind of grandeur -- gaudy, wild, raw, amusing, rollicking and ragged, boiling with life, on intimate terms with death and evil -- but in the end, contrite and fully tired of a world wasting itself in blood, pillage, and lust, but immortal in the miserable splendour of its sins." Mike Mitchell's superb new translation allows us to enjoy one of the great works of European literature and the first German bestselling novel.

(The first great German novel - an extraordinary recreatio...)
The first great German novel - an extraordinary recreation of the horrors of the Thirty Years War, written by a veteran of the conflict First published in 1668, Simplicissimus tells the picaresque, brilliantly described adventures of a boy swept up in the Thirty Years War and the terrible things that he experiences. Some of it is realistic, some fantastical but the overall effect is an unmatched picture of Europe torn apart by an endless, sadistic, futile war from which nobody can escape. The Adventures of Simplicius Simplicissimus was rediscovered in twentieth-century Germany where the book's grim message as a story of war in all of its horror and absurdity resonated and the book is now established as one of the essential works of German literature.

Hans Jakob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen was born circa 1621 in Gelnhausen, Hesse. Apparently the son of an innkeeper of noble descent, he was orphaned at an early age. While still a child, he was drawn into the Thirty Years’ War by Hessian and Croatian troops.
Grimmelshausen spent some years as soldier's boy and wagoner in the imperial forces. He served as musketeer and later as secretary in the Schauenburg regiment. Later, in the service of Lt. Col. Schauenburg, Grimmelshausen was a bailiff-an office which he held until ca. 1659. He then became an innkeeper. Finally, from 1667 he was a magistrate who collected taxes and administrated the law in Renchen.
It was not until Grimmelshausen was over 40 years old that he published Schwarz and Weiss oder der satirische Pilgram (1666). About that time he also wrote fashionable love stories, but his world fame justly rests with Der abenteuerliche Simplicissimus Teutsch (ca. 1668). This extraordinary literary success led him to write more Simplicissimus stories, which he considered parts of his great novel: Trutz-Simplex; oder ausführliche und wunderseltzame Lebensbeschreibung der Ertzbetrügerin und Landstörtzerin Courasche (1670), Der seltzame Springinsfeld (1670), and Das wunderbarliche Vogel-Nest (1672). Grimmelshausen, moreover, wrote gallant heroic romances such as Dietwald und Amelinde (1670).
He published all his works anonymously; that is, he assigned them to fictitious writers whose names he liked to invent partly out of letters of his own name. Simplicissimus was, after Wolfram von Eschenbach's Parzival and before Goethe's Faust, one of the greatest original and artistic documents in German literature, in which the struggle between good and evil, purity of heart and lustful greed, was presented with vivid immediacy. This novel transcended the horizon of a merely bawdy, picaresque story; it was much more than an entertaining tale full of coarse descriptions of bestial adventures and human follies. It clearly led the readerthrough godless unrest and sinfulness into an existence of inwardness and a recognition of the individual's responsibility toward society: being a creature of this earth man must recognize and accept his limitations.
When, in 1674, Louis XIV plundered Alsace and the neighboring regions, Renchen was endangered. Grimmelshausen did military service for the imperial army, but at the same time he remained a magistrate in his little town, where on August 17, 1676 he died.
