In the latest entertaining and hilarious Professor Dr Dr Moritz-Maria Von Igelfeld novel our
hopelessly out-of-touch hero is forced to confront uppity librarians the rector of the
university and a possible hostile takeover all while trying to remain studiously above it all.
Professor Dr Dr Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld and his colleagues at the University of Regensburg's
Institute of Romance Philology pride themselves on their unwavering commitment to intellectual
excellence. They know it is their job to protect a certain civilized approach to the scholarly
arts. So when a new deputy librarian Dr. Hilda Schreiber-Ziegler threatens to drag them all
down a path of progressive inclusivity they are determined to stop her in the name of
scholarship - even if that requires von Igelfeld to make the noble sacrifice of running for
director of the Institute. Alas politics is never easy and in order to put his best foot
forward von Igelfeld will be required to take up a visiting fellowship at Oxford and cultivate
the attentions of a rather effusive young American scholar. Still von Igelfeld has always
heeded the clarion call of duty especially when it comes with a larger office.
