"Höxter und Corvey: Erzählung" by Wilhelm Raabe is a historical novella published in 1879. Set during a single December night in 1673, the story follows two courageous friends—a Benedictine monk and a young law student—as they intervene to prevent an angry mob of Catholics and Lutherans from attacking the Jewish residents of Höxter. Against the backdrop of a war-ravaged German town still recovering from the Thirty Years' War, the narrative explores religious conflict, social justice, and individual moral courage.
