Description

Immensee (1849 and 1851) is a novella by German author Theodor Storm.

It was the work that made him famous and remains to this day one of his most widely read. Immensee was first published in Biernatzki's Volksbuch in December 1849 when the author was well known regionally, but with the revised edition 1851, he became famous all over Germany and then the world.

By the time of his death in 1888, it saw 33 editions in 17 languages.

Storm revised it using some comments from his friend Tyco Mommsen and republished it in 1851 in Sommergeschichten und Lieder and finally as a single work edition in 1852.

The first English translation appeared in 1858 in Henry Colburn's New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal with a second version first appearing in the USA in 1863.

It was Storm's best selling work and remains to this day one of his most widely read, along with The Rider on the White Horse and Pole Poppenspäler.
