The German Lieutenant, and Other Stories

The German Lieutenant, and Other Stories

August Strindberg

1915

Translated by Claud Field

The German Lieutenant, and Other Stories is a collection of short stories by August Strindberg, first published in 1915. The titular story follows Lieut. Von Bleichroden, a Prussian officer during the Franco-Prussian War, as he grapples with the moral complexities of warfare and its psychological toll. The collection explores themes of duty, individual morality versus societal expectations, and the impact of war on the human psyche, reflecting Strindberg's significant contributions to modern Swedish literature and his exploration of human emotions in conflict.
