Published and introduced by Jürgen Joachimsthaler. For the first time, Ludwig Tieck's 'Gesellenstücke', the sixteen texts that appeared in volumes 4 to 8 of the Straussfedern anthologies from 1795 to 1798, are critically edited in full, based on the version authorized by the author in the writings and including all readings from the first editions. Additionally, an edition of the eight Straussfedern volumes based on the first editions is planned, as well as a new edition of the three-volume Reliquien by August Ferdinand Bernhardi and Sophie Tieck.
