Andreas Gryphius occupies a special position in the history of baroque reception: not only was his work largely spared from the radical criticism of the Enlightenment, it also later escaped the equally radical overvaluation of baroque literature, which was primarily based on Grimmelshausen. However, where highlights of older German literature had to be marked since Gottsched and - moreover - in the context of the reorientation of baroque research since the 1920s, his dramatic work, alongside Gryphius' poetry, was the focus of interest to the extent that generalizations were beyond The era often took on the character of commentaries on specific aspects of his work.

Andreas Gryphius occupies a special position in the history of baroque reception: not only was his work largely spared from the radical criticism of the Enlightenment, it also later escaped the equally radical overvaluation of baroque literature, which was primarily based on Grimmelshausen. However, where highlights of older German literature had to be marked since Gottsched and - moreover - in the context of the reorientation of baroque research since the 1920s, his dramatic work, alongside Gryphius' poetry, was the focus of interest to the extent that generalizations were beyond The era often took on the character of commentaries on specific aspects of his work. Papinian, the last of his tragedies, is also considered his most successful. In the confrontation between the Roman ruler, who is unable to cope with the conflicting demands of passion and political wisdom, and his legal scholar, who goes beyond all stoic ataraxia to a passionate affirmation of the law, basic positions of the Christian martyr drama appear, and with them specific moral, theological and constitutional law Interests of the 17th century. In his foreword to this reprint, Gerd Hillen not only offers a thorough interpretation of the work, he also makes detailed comments on the classical allusions, among other things.
