Summary/Abstract: He was a gentle and tender young man, Georg Büchner. But what enraged him really was the open or hidden contempt of other men: an affront of mankind, as he put in. He found this contempt in fellow students in Gießen. He traced it back in the turning point of the French revolution as in a silent valley of the Vosges. His Woyzeck is so much embittered by some tiny remarks of continuous disdain, so much upset of what he feels he can̕t grasp that he eventually murders his wife.
