Summary: "Die irdische Unsterblichkeit: Roman" by Werner Jansen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative is set around the life of a troubled nobleman, Robert, who grapples with guilt and existential questions after committing an act of violence against his innocent wife, Aleit. The story explores themes of redemption, conflict, and the quest for meaning in a turbulent medieval world. The opening of the novel immerses readers in a tumultuous moment where Robert awakens in a desolate gorge, haunted by memories of his past and the violent tragedy he has committed. As he encounters a mysterious monk in the woods, the depth of his remorse and the complexity of his identity unfold. Robert confesses to the monk his guilt over the death of his wife and reflects on his former life of excess and privilege. This encounter sets the stage for a journey of self-discovery and penance, as Robert struggles with his turbulent emotions and seeks to reconcile his past actions with his current quest for redemption and understanding of his lineage.
