Abstract
The following extract from Daniel Kehlmann’s novel Tyll, an epic of the Thirty Years War, focuses on legendary figure Tyll Ulenspiegel: vagabond, showman and provocateur. With his touring stage he travels across a country devastated by religious wars, and in many places leaves spectators spellbound by his acrobatic tricks.
Im folgenden Auszug aus Daniel Kehlmanns 2017 erschienenen Roman Tyll–einem Epos vom Dreißigjährigen Krieg –geht es um die legendäre Figur Tyll Ulenspiegel: Vagant, Schausteller und Provokateur. Mit seiner Wanderbühne zieht er durch das von den Religionskriegen erschütterte Land und mit seinen Kunststücken vielerorts die Menschen in seinen Bann.
