Maggiori informazioni sul libro

E. T. A. Hoffmann, a 19th-century author from Königsberg, initially pursued law before turning to literature and philosophy, influenced by German classicists and thinkers like Kant. His renowned tale, "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King," inspired Tchaikovsky's famous ballet, while "The Sandman" influenced both ballet and Freud's essay on the uncanny. Hoffmann is celebrated for his mastery of the uncanny in literature, making his works significant in both literary and psychological contexts. This edition aims to make his classic stories accessible to modern readers.
