The aim of this article is to analyze the alcohol addiction of Erwin Sommer, the main character in the novel The Drinker by Hans Fallada. This article focuses solely on his alcohol-related problems, and not on that of his temporary stay in prison or in sanatorium. The analysis of Sommer’s alcohol addiction is based not only on literary studies and the biography of the writer but most of all on current medical studies concerning alcoholism. I also compare Erwin Sommer with another classic figure with respect to literature about alcoholism – Jack London and his famous autobiographical novel John Barleycorn. Although the symptoms of alcoholism by Erwin Sommer are actually typical, the aetiology of his alcohol addiction is not so obvious. For this reason, I attempt to discover the real genesis of his disease. The basis of my considerations are, among others, the classification of alcohol disease stages, developed by E. M. Jellinek, the precursor of alcoholism studies, the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems ICD-10 created by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the S3-Guideline, published by the Association of the Scientific Medical Societies, German Society of Psychiatry, Psychotherapy, Psychosomatics and Neurology, and German Society of Addiction Studies and Addiction Therapy. In current scientific articles and studies about alcohol-related problems, one can find plenty of details which are very helpful to fully understand Hans Fallada’s life and his fascinating and frightening report about the social, financial and personal fall of a human being.

Memoirs in the Novel Form. Hans Fallada’s Gefängnistagebuch 1944 As opposed to other German-speaking authors, Hans Fallada did not decide on emigration from the Hitlerite Germany. The author of the topos of the man in the street stayed in The Third Reich, where, while wanting to keep on writing, he had to subject to the propaganda censorship. Although his books did not appear on the blacklist, he was rather unpopular in the Party. He was imprisoned twice. When being incarcarated in 1944, he started writing a prison diary, a fact which he managed to conceal from the wardens. In these diaries, in the first person, he describes his own struggles as an average citizen of the Nazi Germany. He takes up motifs typical for other compatriots; the reform of the authorities’ system, the so-called internal emigration, which he after did not belong to, his writings despite the existing censorship, or the general attitude towards Jewish people. When it comes to the narrative form, the diary, which content was camouflaged by Fallada in extenso between the lines of The Drinker, partially resembles the genre of memoirs with the first-person narrative voice. Curiously enough, despite using this particular kind of narrator, from whom one can expect far-reaching subjectivity, he remains in his narration extremely mature, precise and above all-credible. As a result, the prison diary is one of the most authentic literary documents concerning the life of a common man in Nazi Germany and a unique insight into his everyday dilemmas.

Based on two of Ernst von Salomon’s literary documents on the Rural People’s Movement ["Landvolkbewegung"] (1928–1932), this paper will trace the thinking of national revolutionary intellectuals and charismatic Landvolk leaders. Their clear rejection of National Socialism is just as evident as their retreat into a specific form of inner emigration.

Hans Fallada’s novel Kleiner Mann, großer Mann (1941) is in principle regarded as a trivial novel and it is for this reason that it has very seldom aroused interest among the literati. Yet, Fallada himself at one time called his texts written in the Nazi Germany a kind of entertaining or popular literature. However, with the careful analysis of Kleiner Mann, großer Mann one should state that the novel about the offcial Max Schreyvogel, at least with respect to the narration, does not come under the criterion of triviality. The somewhat trashy story (histoire albo narrative) is being told with the new objective (new objectivity), realistic means (discourse) which are in cotrast to the banality of the main topic.
