Text in German. The title of Paul Wegener's film Hans Trutz im Schlaraffenland, dating from 1917, alludes to Pieter Bruegel's well-known picture Cockaigne (Das Schlaraffenland).

About Heide Schonemann
Heide Schonemann, a Potsdam film academic, studied German, but has concerned herself with the border areas of literary criticism, art history and film since her student days. She attracted attention with a work on Fritz Lang, among other things (Fritz Lang - Filmbilder und Vorbilder), which led to a Goethe-Institut exhibition that is still touring the world.
