Des Feldpredigers Schmelzle Reise nach Flätz mit fortgehenden Noten by Jean Paul

"Des Feldpredigers Schmelzle Reise nach Flätz mit fortgehenden Noten" by Jean Paul is a satire published in February 1808. Military chaplain Schmelzle, notorious for fleeing from battle, embarks on a journey to petition General Schabacker for a professorship in catechetics. Driven by his ambitious wife Teutoberga, who seeks social advancement, the cowardly protagonist approaches the very authority aware of his desertion at Pimpelstadt. Jean Paul crafts a psychological portrait of fear and failure, presenting a character who transforms weakness into heroic narrative through elaborate excuses and unwavering self-preservation.
