# The Serapion Brethren, Vol. I. Author: Hoffmann, E. T. A. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus), 1776-1822; Ewing, A. (Alexander), 1830-1895 [Translator] Genre: Category: Short Stories Language: English License: Public domain Source: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/31820 Amazon editions: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=The+Serapion+Brethren%2C+Vol.+I.+Hoffmann&tag=cyberlibrar00-20 ## Summary Notwithstanding the popularity which several of Hoffmann's tales have obtained in many different countries, we are not aware of any complete or accurate translation of his works. In England they have become known in a very partial form, chiefly by the appearance of a few isolated tales in association with those of other writers, as in the 'Specimens of German Romance,' or in Gillies' 'German Stories,' which were published about 1830. Others are familiar only through the medium of a translation from a previous French version, as is the case with the well-known 'Nutcracker,'--and in this process of double dilution the Author's name has sometimes disappeared altogether. ## Chapters -
