Editing Jeremias Gotthelf (section)

===Literature===
In ''The Tongue Set Free'', the first part of the autobiography of [[Elias Canetti]], the author mentions being haunted by Gotthelf's short story 'The Black Spider' in his early teens.

In the novel ''2666'' by [[Roberto Bolaño]] Gotthelf is mentioned as the subject of the novel ''Bitzius'':

<blockquote>
(...) and in ''Bitzius'', a novel less than one hundred pages long, similar in some ways to ''Mitzi's Treasure'', (...) and that told the story of the life of Albert Bitzius, pastor of Lützelflüh, in the canton of Bern, an author of sermons as well as a writer under the pseudonym Jeremias Gotthelf.<ref>Roberto Bolaño: 2666{{snd}}A Novel, translated by Natasha Wimmer, New York 2008, p. 6</ref>
