Volume V/1 of the historical-critical edition of Eichendorff's complete works assembles seven novellas and other narratives, including such famous titles as "Das Marmorbild", the "Taugenichts" and the Revolution novella "Das Schloß Dürande". Unlike all other modern editions, the present compilation adheres to the author's original orthography. Also, text-critical verification has made it possible to excise numerous errors stemming from early print versions and persisting to the present day. Hence this edition is the first to present these texts in the form originally intended by the author.
