Description

Learn German with the Augsburg Saga – A2.2 Interlinear German–English Reader

Saint Stultitius of Augsburg

Learn German through story and carefully graded A2-level language — with immediate English support when you need it.

Saint Stultitius of Augsburg is the second book of the A2 level in the Augsburg Saga.
It is written in clear, controlled A2 German and presented in an interlinear German–English format, sentence by sentence.

Each German sentence is followed directly by its English translation.
The English is not word-for-word and not literary prose. It stays close to the German in meaning and structure and serves purely as a reading aid, allowing you to continue reading without constant dictionary use.

Augsburg in 1703: fear, faith, and deception

The story is set in Augsburg in 1703, during the War of the Spanish Succession.
The city is not a battlefield, but fear spreads quickly through rumors, rising prices, and uncertain news.

In this tense atmosphere, a man appears who claims to offer protection:

blessed water herbs and papers promises of safety through a "holy" name

Many people listen.

Priest Hartwig watches carefully.
He does not confront the man directly.
Instead, he observes, waits, and responds with calm reasoning and a clever plan.

At the center of the story is a fictional figure: Saint Stultitius —
a name used to expose deception without violence, panic, or punishment.

The story focuses on judgment, responsibility, and quiet intelligence, told in calm, accessible A2 German.
