Jürg Jenatsch

by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer

Jürg Jenatsch ist ein historischer Roman, der im Dreißigjährigen Krieg spielt und sich auf die turbulenten Ereignisse in Graubünden konzentriert. Im Zentrum der Handlung steht der charismatische und ambivalente Pfarrer Jürg Jenatsch, der zu einem einflussreichen Militärführer aufsteigt und in einen komplizierten Konflikt zwischen Protestanten und Katholiken verwickelt ist. Der Roman beleuchtet die politischen Intrigen, religiösen Spannungen und die menschliche Tragödie, die den Krieg prägten. Jenatsch gerät in ein Spannungsfeld zwischen seinen eigenen Ambitionen und den Bedürfnissen seines Volkes, während er mit Loyalitätskonflikten und moralischen Dilemmata zu kämpfen hat.
