From the cycle Zurich Novellas by Gottfried Keller: In 1877 Gottfried Keller published his Zurich Novellas (Zuricher Novellen), a series of short novels dealing with the history of Zurich and Switzerland. Ursula is a love story between a Swiss soldier and the daughter of a farmer during the time of the Swiss Reformation lead by Ulrich Zwingli and at the beginning of the Anabaptist movement in Europe in the 16th century. — Gottfried Keller was one of the foremost Swiss novelists and one of the most original figures of German literature since Goethe, a master of style worthy to be classed with the great names of all ages.
