Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E.T.A. Hoffman’s classic children’s tale, The Nutcracker, is perhaps best known as the basis for Russian composer Tchaikovsky’s extraordinarily popular ballet, composed in 1892 and performed throughout the world every year at holiday time. This original tale, written in 1816, tells the story of a seven year old girl, Marie Stahlbaum, and her favorite Christmas toy, a Nutcracker, who comes alive and, defeats the evil Mouse King in battle, and then whisks Marie away to a magical kingdom which is populated by dolls. In this dark, magical mystery that surrounds a story within a story, we meet Godpapa Drosselmeier, who was once the royal court’s inventor. He tells Marie about the trickery of Dame Mouserink, the Queen of Mice. She was a vengeful queen who cast a curse on an innocent princess which forced Drosselmeier to undertake a very difficult task in order to break the spell. This caused a rivalry between the Nutcracker and the seven-headed Mouse-King - Dame Mouserink's son - a conflict that only Marie can help resolve. One of the world's greatest fantasy writers and one of the major authors of the Romantic movement, Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann (1776–1822) created extraordinary works of poetry, fantasy and supernatural fiction. He was also a jurist, composer, music critic and artist. His stories highly influenced 19th century literature.

Download or read book The Nutcracker and The Strange Child written by E. T. A. Hoffmann and published by Pushkin Press. This book was released on 2010-12-14 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E.T.A. Hoffmann’s famous tale The Nutcracker and the Mouse King may seem almost over-familiar as the inspiration for TcHaikovsky’s equally famous ballet (in fact based on a French retelling of Hoffmann’s original German tale). However, its translation is rarely ever entire. This edition displays the full range of Hoffmann’s quirky powers of invention. Here is the whole text in English, together with another less known tale, The Strange Child, in which Felix and Christlieb, the son and daughter of a country gentleman, Sir Thaddeus, meet a child in the woods. To Felix their new playmate appears a boy, to Christlieb another little girl. They are not the first of their family to have met the strange child.

Download or read book The Nutcracker and the Mouse King (Christmas Classics Series) written by E.T.A. Hoffmann and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E.T.A. Hoffmann's 'The Nutcracker and the Mouse King' is a timeless classic that blends elements of fantasy, magical realism, and folklore. Set on Christmas Eve, the story follows young Marie and her beloved Nutcracker as they battle the nefarious Mouse King in a dreamlike journey. Hoffmann's eloquent prose and vivid imagination create a rich tapestry of enchanting scenes and characters, making this novella a delight for readers of all ages. The thematic exploration of innocence, bravery, and the power of imagination adds depth to the whimsical narrative, offering layers of meaning beneath its fantastical surface. E.T.A. Hoffmann, a German author and composer known for his Romantic works, drew inspiration from his own experiences and interests in music and the supernatural to craft 'The Nutcracker and the Mouse King'. With a background in law and a passion for storytelling, Hoffmann weaves together elements of the fantastic and the macabre to create a narrative that continues to captivate audiences worldwide. His ability to blend the real and the imaginary in a cohesive and engaging manner showcases his literary prowess and enduring influence. I highly recommend 'The Nutcracker and the Mouse King' to readers seeking a magical and thought-provoking tale that transcends time and genre boundaries. Hoffmann's masterful storytelling and imaginative world-building make this Christmas classic a must-read for anyone looking to immerse themselves in a captivating literary journey.
