This essay tries to contextualize a very popular nineteenth-century literary genre –  Dorfgeschichten , village tales – from the standpoint of a historian. 1  It considers two of the most widely read exemplars of the genre – Berthold Auerbach’s  Schwarzwälder Dorfgeschichten  and Alban Stolz’s  Kalender für Zeit und Ewigkeit , and places them in relation to a third: Johann Peter Hebel’s  Rheinisches Schatzkästlein . The essay argues that it makes sense to approach this genre from the early nineteenth-century context – temporal, spatial, and religious – that formed it rather than from problems, such as industrialization, encountered in a later time. It also argues for due consideration of historical concreteness over strict considerations of genre.
