by Eduard Mörike & Edmund von Sallwürk (Editor)

  • First published:
  • 19th century
  • Language: German
  • Content type: Primary source

"Das Stuttgarter Hutzelmännlein" by Eduard Mörike is a fairy tale published in 1853. This multi-layered Swabian tale follows young shoemaker Seppe and maiden Veronika, whose paths are guided by a mysterious little man bearing magical gifts. Their separate adventures involve enchanted shoes with minds of their own, a melancholy water nixie seeking laughter, an ever-renewing bread loaf, and an invisibility-granting lead weight. Through whimsical episodes across southern Germany, both young people stumble toward an unexpected meeting at a carnival festival. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
