	Werdnig Hoffmann Disease -- Recommendations and Resources (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		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.
		Hoffmann's work illuminates the darker side of the human spirit found behind the hypocritical harmony of bourgeois life, yet his wide-ranging influence upon and creative significance within the later German romantic period is frequently underestimated.
		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.

		During the war, Hoffmann stored the pictures with his collection of 2.5 million photographs in a German castle, where they were discovered by victorious US troops in 1945.
		Hoffmann died in 1957, and his son sought the return of both the paintings and the photographs.
		Robert White, Hoffmann's attorney, told the Supreme Court this week: "The unique aspect of this theft is that the culprit is the US government." But Theodore Olson, the solicitor general, insisted that the seizure of the art work was "a quintessential public policy decision", and part of the de-Nazification of Germany.

	Books \| Tales of Hoffmann
		This is a second novel by a writer who has so far chosen to write about fairly obscure characters from German history, on this occasion Dr Heinrich Hoffmann, author of Struwwelpeter, the famous book of cautionary tales for children in unforgettable verse.
		Apparently Dr Hoffmann was not only a medical man but was also the superintendent of Frankfurt's lunatic asylum for many years.
		Hoffmann decides to give her the talking treatment, as recommended by a Professor Heinroth, and in the process reveals a lot about his own life, his feeling of helplessness as a physician, his unsatisfactory marriage, and so on.

	International Intrigue
		Heinrich Hoffmann (1809-94) is best known, if he's known at all, as the author of Struwwelpeter (Shockheaded Peter), one of the most endearing collections in the pantheon of children's literature.
		Those include private letters, a phrenology report, an excerpt from a treatise on freethinking and of course snippets of Hoffmann's verse, upon which Dudman builds her clever tale.
		When Hoffmann tells Hannah about his own troubles, she begins to respond, and together they seem to play a role in the invention of psychoanalysis.

	98 Reasons for Being - Clare Dudman - Penguin Group (USA)
		In 1850s Frankfurt, a Jewish girl named Hannah Meyer is admitted to the town asylum; she hasn’t spoken, slept, or eaten in weeks and wagging tongues have resulted in a diagnosis of nymphomania.
		In an increasingly obsessed effort to cure her, Dr. Hoffmann uses all the methods at his disposal—from ice packs and blood letting to electrodes.
		As the secrets hidden in Hannah’s mind are exposed, Hoffmann begins to uncover his own buried truths and, in the end, discover his real reasons for being.

		Heinrich Hoffmann's Der Struwwelpeter, the best known German children's book, was first published in Frankfurt in 1845.
		These "merry stories and funny pictures for children between 3 and 6 years," as Dr. Hoffmann termed them, are cautionary tales, by turns macabre, touching, and wickedly funny.
		When Heinrich Hoffman (1809-1894) couldn't find an appropriate book for his son at Christmas, he wrote Der Struwwelpeter.

	La Luz de Jesus Presents Sarita Vendetta
		Sometime in the late Seventies I came across the astonishing text of Dr. Heinrich Hoffmann's Struwwelpeter.
		By contrast, the author of Struwwelpeter reserves his apocalyptic justice for peccadilloes far less weighty than those practiced by the raging, cannibalistic, and adult ogres of Grimm et.
		In Dr. Hoffmann's world, exuberance is rewarded with a severed limb, childish greed visited by hornets; tears beget blindness and vanity merits mutilation.

		This edition is a painstaking reproduction of the nineteenth-century edition, printed in five colours to approximate the look of the original, in which the text was printed letterpress, and the pictures lithographed and then coloured by hand.
		Heinrich Hoffmann (1809-1894), a doctor in his native Frankfurt (where there is a museum devoted to his work), often told funny stories to put his young patients at their ease.
		Frustrated by the moralistic tone of contemporary children’s books, he wrote and illustrated this picture book as a Christmas present for his three-year-old son, and it has delighted and terrified generations since.

	The Cautionary Tale
		A Cautionary Tale is a story told as a “bad example” to warn readers or listeners of what will happen to them if they do as the protagonist did
		Friends published it without his name on it; in just 30 years, it went into 100 editions (the first English translation, without Hoffmann’s name on it, appeared in 1848 and was highly successful) (502).
		For Anderson and Apseloff, Hoffmann’s pictures and the text (the words) are integral to each other; readers will remember vividly the title character and the Little Suck-a-Thumb being cut by the scissors (170).

		In Hoffmann's tales, most of the children are simply scared out of their wits.

	Getting under the skin of body piercing
		The motivation for and psychological background behind body piercing is also discussed.
		By presenting research results, the author aims to raise awareness of the many risks associated with body piercing; and by presenting psychological data, she aims to create an understanding of the multifaceted and often intense motivations associated with this practice-and thereby to diminish any prejudices held by health professionals against people with piercings.
		Aglaja Stirn comments: "Depending on where on the body a piercing is located, body piercing makes both an introverted, private, and an extroverted, public statement towards society.

		While its location at the Little Shubert Theatre on West 42nd Street makes it an off-Broadway production, Shockheaded Peter is more original than most of what is going on at the Great White Way lately.
		Inspired by the dark children’s stories of late 19th-century German author Dr. Heinrich Hoffmann, the show is hosted by a ghoulishly funny emcee (Julian Bleach) and musically accompanied by the gothic cabaret of The Tiger Lillies — accordionist/singer Martyn Jacques, bassist/backup singer Adrian Stout and drummer Adrian Huge.
		Told here through monologues, song, puppeteering and dramatic re-enactments, Hoffmann’s stories tell of the grim fatalities that befall naughty children who suck their thumbs, fidget at the dinner table, torture animals and play with matches.

		In 1852, as he treats Hannah Meyer, a young Jewish woman diagnosed with nymphomania, Dr. Hoffmann uses methods from electrodes to leeches.
		When these methods fail, he persists (particularly because Hannah has captured his interest) by talking, revealing his own personal and professional problems and gradually uncovering Hannah's secrets and the story of the man she loves, as revealed in her mesmerizing italicized interior monologue.
		While Hoffmann and Hannah are primary, all of the patients and staff at the asylum are exceptionally well drawn, and through them Dudman explores the nature of madness, prejudice, and love; and at the end of some chapters, she adds pertinent tales from Struwwelpeter.
