Book excerpt: This compilation presents stories by two of the writers who helped launch the early 19th-century German Romanticism movement: Ludwig Tieck and Jean Paul Richter. Translated by Thomas Carlyle, it features seven highly influential tales that range in mood from fantasy and fairy tale lightness to witty satire. Shemlzie's Journey to Fletz and Life of Quintus Fixlien, a story and novella by Richter, the least translated of the major German Romantics, are of particular note.
