	Introduction to Nutcracker and The Mouse King
		It came from Herr E.T.A. Hoffmann himself, who out of love for that most lovable and best of all artists, Mozart, changed one of his middle names to Amadeus.
		E.T.A. Hoffmann's The Nutcracker and the Mouse King has finally been brought fully and faithfully to life in English.
		My first step was to return to the source: E.T.A. Hoffmann who, in 1816, wrote the amazing long short story called The Nutcracker and the Mouse King.

		For anxiety about status and false identity see much of the work of the underappreciated ETA Hoffmann and heirs such as Dumas (The Count of Monte Christo) or Stevenson (Dr Jeckyll and Mr Hyde).
		This page highlights fiction about surveillance and identity, from ETA Hoffmann and Herman Melville to Nineteen Eighty-Four and beyond.

	Opera Madness Part I
		Offenbach's Contes/Tales of Hoffmann was the first opera I remember seeing and thinking, "This actually is pretty good." I've seen four different productions of it and the best of them are weird and dark--like the ETA Hoffmann stories it's based on (ETA Hoffman also wrote the story of The Nutcracker).
		I'm sure it must be disheartening to the cast when a dog can get an ovation for just walking across the stage and panting a few times.
		DMMO's was not very weird; it was actually staged in a fairly realistic way which put me off a bit.

	Werdnig Hoffmann Disease -- Recommendations and Resources
		ETA Hoffman Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann (January 24, 1776 - June 25, 1822), was a German romantic and fantasy author and composer.
		Hoffmann's portrayal of the character Kreisler (a genius musician) is wittily counterpointed with the character of the tomcat Murr—a virtuoso illustration of artistic pretentiousness that many of Hoffmann's contemporaries found offensive and subvertive of Romantic ideals.
		Hoffmann is one of the best-known representatives of German Romanticism, and a pioneer of the fantasy genre, with a taste for the macabre combined with realism that influenced such authors as Franz Kafka, Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Dickens, and Nikolai Gogol.

		While Hoffmann's three loves and four nemeses are meant to be facets of the same conflicting figures, this pooduction casts them separately - a decision that caused much controversy at the time (see the review left for details).

		Based on the fantasy tales of ETA Hoffmann, the opera has become a stalwart of the international repetoire, and has been memorably recorded on many occasions, not least with Plácido Domingo in the lead role in a 1968 recording that also includes Dame Joan Sutherland.
		Attempts have been made to recreate as close as possible his vision of the piece, using vocal parts and sketches, but the re-discovered score should bring musicians closer still.

		Well, I just finished preparing notes for today's Aesthetics & Criticism class (my first actual appearance of the semester, since labyrinthitis had me in its clutches for the first two sessions), and since today's reading was ETA Hoffmann, I'm buzzing with German Romanticism.
		At least on a blustery day like today with the wind whipping the trees outside as I read Hoffmann's Kreisleriana with Nordic music playing on the stereo...
		Okay, okay, I've never been that much of a fan of the whole overblown German Romanticism Thang (especially as it [a] tied historically into aggressive nation-building, etc., and [b] still plays out in American music conservatories nowadays), but I have to admit that it can be kind of fun anyway.

		owever, his literary aspirations continued and, intrigued by the idea of Doppelgängers and the work of ETA Hoffmann, he projected two sides of his personality into his writings: the virtuosic, flamboyant Florestan, and the pensive, retiring Eusebius.
		After briefly moving to Heidelberg, Schumann returned to Leipzig and prepared to devote his talents, which he considered equal as a poet and musician, to music, publishing his Opus 1, the Abegg Variations soon after.
		In 1834 he became owner and editor of the journal Neue Zeitschrift für Musik.
