Klassiker der Weltliteratur: Heinrich Mann - "Der Untertan" | BR-alpha

Diederich Heßling is a power-hungry man who fawns over those above him and bullies those below. With this character portrayal, Heinrich Mann offered an analysis of the Wilhelmine era. The significance of the satire was recognized only much later. Presented by: Tilman Spengler Edited by: Jörg Lösel Source: http://www.br.de/mediathek/video/send...
