Summary: "Der Bürger" by Leonhard Frank is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the life of Jürgen Kolbenreiher, a high school student navigating the complexities of societal expectations, personal identity, and struggles against authority. Through his interactions and internal conflicts, it explores themes of individualism and the pressures imposed by family and society. The opening of "Der Bürger" introduces us to Jürgen Kolbenreiher as he wrestles with his own fears and self-doubt while contemplating purchasing a philosophical pamphlet. As the time ticks on the tower clock, he becomes increasingly aware of his father's looming expectations and the idea of cowardice associated with his hesitations. The narrative captures Jürgen's inner turmoil as he observes disparities between himself and his peers, particularly highlighted by the bleak contrast of a poor boy's admiration for a wealthy girl. This sets the stage for Jürgen's growth and challenges as he grapples with his ambitions, relationships, and the societal structures that confine him. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
