Sumario:The naval warfare during the First World War 1914-1918 certainly had less impact than the battles in the trenches of France and Belgium, but we find in German literature several interesting literary texts of sailors who speak of naval battles and of leisure in German ports. We analyze a drama, a diary and a novel of three well-known authors at that time: Reinhard Göring, Joachim Ringelnatz and Theodor Plivier. The German navy was “the favorite toy” of German Emperor Wilhelm II and became the focus of a revolutionary rebellion which ended the war in 1918. This year is the centenary of the Jutland Battle on May 31, 1916, which remains until today the largest naval battle of all times, when England and Germany struggled in a bloody battle, which caused great human losses and brought about dramatic representations in literature.
