The Beauty of Duty. A new look on Ludwig Winders Novel

Original language description

The paper analyzes the novel Die Pflicht (Duty) by the German Jewish writer Ludwig Winder (1889-1946) written during World War II in Great Britain. Winder originated from Moravia; before his years in British exile, he lived most of his life in Prague. His novel Die Pflicht was obviously written by order of the Czechoslovak government-in-exile. It portrays the resistance activities of an average citizen in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. Despite its commitment to a political cause, the novel demonstrates considerable literary quality. The contribution contextualizes Winder's oeuvre within the literature of the so-called 'Prague Circle'; it traces Winder's life in exile and exposes the historical circumstances that caused the creation of the novel.
