Woyzeck incomprehensible?
I've been putting a lot of pressure on myself for years regarding my Abitur, and now it's time to take it this school year.
Since I'm taking German as a core subject, I'll still have to take the "Woyzeck" lesson, which will probably start next week.
I wanted to prepare myself, so I read the book during the holidays. When I reached the last sentence, I just put the book down next to me and thought to myself, "What?"
So either I'm just incredibly stupid, or the work isn't really clear or understandable to some students outside of class. Should I be very worried about this? I'm really scared because I barely understand anything (I did understand that Marie is murdered by Woyzeck, for example, and I also figured out that she's pulling his leg by cheating on him, but other than that, I'm really at a loss) and have now completely lost all faith in my own (academic) abilities.
Can anyone give me some tips on how I could perhaps grasp and understand the work a little better?

borrow and compare Sekundaerliteratur in the library. Reading the work again – to better understand the thinking of the authors of the Sekunda literature.
Find out if you share / contradict the thoughts and work out these passages.
By doing this, you will show that you are deeply concerned with matter and offer a “third opinion” that you can defend in a stable manner.
You can refer to original and secondary literature in the case of “responses and counterpositions”. In enlightenment, you can make notes, offer to pruef at a given time, not be held by your own work.
There are also other questions that you want to give time and possibilities and “MUSST” to praise everyone for a successful elaboration.
Trust the circumstances where Büchner wrote that.
For example, here:
https://diebrecht.eu/2024/05/06/peter-brunner-ueber-georg-buechner/
Read about the historical case of Woyzeck, who provoked Büchner, and about the judicial review that led to his conviction.
Consider what it can mean that the book researcher Alfons wrote happiness, that you can read “the piece Woyzeck as counter-checks in the case of Woyzeck”.
Recognize that until then there has never been a loser in German literature and what that means for Büchner’s view of the world.
Best regards

The book is actually quite simple and you will also notice this as soon as you discuss it in class.
