Summary "Der Wehrwolf: Eine Bauernchronik" by Hermann Löns is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a rural setting, focusing on the life and struggles of farmers as they face external threats and internal challenges during tumultuous times. The primary character is Harm Wulf, a resilient farmer who navigates the complexities of life amid warfare, cultural changes, and the inevitabilities of rural existence. The opening of the novel establishes a vivid backdrop of the Haide, a wild land dominated by nature and its beasts before the arrival of settlers with bright faces and ambitions. As the narrative introduces the various residents of this harsh environment, it primarily focuses on the Wulf family and their interactions with neighbors and enemies. Harm Wulf is depicted as a jovial and hardworking man, oblivious to the encroaching dangers of war, even as hints of conflict and the specter of violence lurk in the background. The initial chapters effectively paint a picture of rural life, characterized by camaraderie, tradition, and the raw beauty of nature, setting the stage for the unfolding drama against the historical turmoil of the period.
