Bleiler states the scenes in Alraune set in the Berlin underworld as among the best parts of the novel. Bleiler notes "Both Alraune and The Sorcerer's Apprentice are remarkable for the emotion the author can arouse" and that Ewers' writing is, at its best, "very effective". However, Bleiler also argues Ewers' work is marred by "annoying pretentiousness, vulgarity, and a very obtrusive and unpleasant author's personality". The third novel of the sequence, Vampyr , written in , concerns Braun's own eventual transformation into a vampire , drinking the blood of his Jewish mistress.
Hanns Heinz Ewers - Wikipedia
Ewers wrote numerous short stories, those in Nachtmahr "Nightmare" largely concern "pornography, blood sport, torture and execution". Ewers also published several plays, poems, fairy tales, opera librettos, and critical essays. These included Die Ameisen , translated into English as The Ant People , Indien und ich , a travelogue of his time in India, and a critical essay on Edgar Allan Poe , to whom he has often been compared.
Indeed, Ewers is still considered by some as a major author in the evolution of the horror literary genre , cited as an influence by American horror writers such as H. Lovecraft and Guy Endore. Ewers also edited the eight-volume Galerie der Phantasten anthologies of horror and fantasy literature, featuring work by Poe , E. Ewers was one of the first critics to recognize cinema as a legitimate art form, and wrote the scripts for numerous early examples of the medium, most notably The Student of Prague , a reworking of the Faust legend which also included the first portrayal of a double role by an actor on the screen.
Nazi martyr Horst Wessel , then a member of the same corps student fraternity of which Ewers had been a member, acts as an extra in a version of the movie , also written by Ewers. Ewers was later commissioned by Adolf Hitler to write a biography of Wessel Einer von vielen , which also was made into a movie. During the last years of the Weimar Republic , Ewers became involved with the burgeoning Nazi Party , attracted by its nationalism, its Nietzschean moral philosophy, and its cult of Teutonic culture, and joined the NSDAP in He did not agree with the party's anti-Semitism his character Frank Braun has a Jewish mistress, Lotte Levi, who is also a patriotic German and this and his homosexual tendencies soon ended his welcome with party leaders.
In most of his works were banned in Germany, and his assets and property seized. Ewers died from tuberculosis in the same year. Despite his great influence on 20th century fantasy and horror literature, Ewers remains out of favor in bourgeois literary circles especially in the English-speaking world and Germany [4] because of his association with the Nazis.
