Gustav Just

    16 giugno 1921 – 23 febbraio 2011

    Gustav Just fu un giornalista e autore tedesco la cui carriera successiva si concentrò sulla traduzione di letteratura ceca e slovacca in tedesco. La sua vita e le sue opere furono segnate dalla persecuzione politica durante l'era della Repubblica Democratica Tedesca e dalla successiva riabilitazione. Come traduttore, si dedicò a rendere accessibili le opere ceche e slovacche al pubblico tedesco, promuovendo la comprensione letteraria tra le nazioni. I suoi contributi fungono da ponte culturale e testimonianza di un complesso periodo storico.

    • In this unique and enlightening work, Oliver Lu translates into English the memoirs of the East German political and cultural figure Gustav Just. Lu gives readers of the English language the opportunity to experience the history of a country hidden from the West. They will learn how Mr. Just was wrongly accused of plotting against the German government and how his trial served as a stereotypical communist 'show-trial.' By absorbing this commentary on Just's first-hand experience, readers will understand the prison conditions that he endured and the political platform to which he and his associates had aspired. Thoroughly researched and impeccably translated, this book should become an important primary source for all students, scholars, and laypeople in the up-and-coming field of interest in the former Soviet bloc.

      Ein Fuhrmann, der nicht mehr ein noch aus weiß und der sich und seine Mähre Julca am Ende an zwei Gojim verdingen muß; ein Schneider, der sich seinen ehelichen Pflichten zu entziehen sucht, weil er sich insgeheim für einen der 36 Gerechten hält; und schließlich Hanas wunderschöne Mandelaugen, Abgründe für Männerseelen, die ihr aber auch nicht dabei helfen, ihren Geliebten als Ehemann durchzusetzen. Die Novellen Ivan Olbrachts sind Glanzstücke tschechischen Erzählens und geben Zeugnis einer Welt, die es längst nicht mehr gibt.
