Hoffmann "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King", a brief summary. A fairy tale is possible: one has only to believe

In German Romanticism, it is difficult to find a more controversial artist than Hoffmann. Lawyer, composer, music critic, cartoonist, writer, Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann is known for his romantic, fantastic and fantastic, often scary stories. Hoffmann's Tale The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, published in 1816, is bright and festive.

Christmas tree

On December 24, at Christmas, the children of Stahlbaum's adviser, Marie and Fritzu, were strictly forbidden to enter the room with the Christmas tree. Fritz, when it was quite dark, saw a small man who secretly ran into the rooms, who was holding a large box. Marie clapped her hands, and the children began to speculate that this time the godmother Drosselmeyer would give them. Fritz dreamed about soldiers, and Marie - about a beautiful lake with swans. But Fritz said in practice that he likes the toys of his parents, because they can play in them, and the gifts of the godmother are removed to prevent the children from breaking them. So begins the tale of Hoffmann. "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King", whose brief content will show that the events will go completely uneventfully, will be considered by us further.

Gifts

In the evening, for children, the doors opened and a Christmas tree shone before them, all hung with toys. There were dolls, hussars and a new dress that Marie wanted to wear, and a horse that Fritz had already jumped on. But the children were solemnly brought to the table, on which stood the castle, worn by Drosselmeier. And the children quickly became bored: the dolls kept repeating the same movements all the time. They returned to their gifts. And then Marie saw the Nutcracker, which seemed simply wonderful to her. His father explained to her that the little man is biting nuts. Marie began to choose the smallest, so as not to break it, but Fritz chose the strongest and largest nut - krak, and the three teeth of the Shchelkechik broke. Marie wrapped the poor fellow in a handkerchief and began cradling her. So continues the story Hoffmann. "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" (summary) tells that one should just be able to love and care and not offend anyone.

Miracles

Before going to bed, and already approaching midnight, the children put the toys in a cabinet with glass doors. Fritz quickly went to bed, and Marie asked permission to stay a little longer. She neatly packed the Nutcracker into the crib and moved it to the shelf of Fritz, to the hussars. And all of a sudden a rustling and whisper began around the room. The clock came alive and struck twelve strokes deaf and hoarse. Marie was scared when she saw Drosselmeyer sitting on the watch next to the owl. And from everywhere there was a giggling, running and tramping, and from under the floor, mice with luminous eyes emerged from all the cracks. They were countless hordes that were lined up in strict order. And at the feet of Marie, piercing the floor, a huge mouse with seven heads, on which were the golden crowns, emerged. This continues the tale of Hoffmann. "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" (short The content we are considering) is becoming more intense in terms of the plot. Marie was very frightened, but heard behind her back the order to build a platoon. At the command of the Shcheluchik who was very handsome and all shone, all the dolls went into battle for victory.

Battle

All the regiments stepped forward, the gunners fired. Mice were dragees and gingerbread. But the mice were all advancing. Both armies fought bitterly. More and more forces appeared in the mice. The Nutcracker Army retreated to the sofa. The mouse clung to his cloak, and the mouse king jumped to him. The situation was critical. Marie got into the mouse king, throwing her shoe into it, and fainted. The Tale (Hoffmann) The Nutcracker and Mouse king, "the summary is outlined here, makes you wonder what it is about?

Disease

In the morning Marie woke up in her crib, and all her stories about the great battle between dolls and mice were taken for nonsense and illness. She was visited by the godfather and brought the Nutcracker, whom he corrected, and told a fairy tale how a pretty princess named Pirlipat was born, guarded by many nannies. In honor of the birth of the princess was arranged a feast, which without invitation was Queen Mysilda and ate all the fat, intended for making sausages. Drosselmeier with the help of machines promised to permanently expel Myshild from the palace. Many relatives of the mouse queen perished in them, and she promised to avenge them. Mysilda made her way to the crib of the princess and - oh, horror! - Has disfigured the beauty. Her mouth was very large, and she kept snapping nuts all the time. To restore her former appearance, it was necessary to gnaw and eat the Krakatuk nut. But before it had to be found. Drosselmeyer's nephew not only found this nut, but also cracked it, and the princess, having eaten the nucleolus, became a beauty. But the young man himself turned into a Nutcracker. Moushild died, but she had a seven-headed son. If it is destroyed by the Nutcracker and a beautiful lady loves him, he will again become a young man. Book's contents "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" calls to think of many obstacles in the way of one who wants to become a human being.

Victory

And the mice behaved impudently at night. They chewed toys and books of Marie. One night the mouse king climbed onto the girl's shoulder. But the Nutcracker, with the help of Marie, obtained a sword, which destroyed the evil mouse king, and presented Marie with all his crowns. Through the puppet cabinet on the fox fur coat, the Nutcracker brought Marie to the magical Land of Sweets.

Morning

Marie no one believed that she had visited the Marzipan Castle and had seen all sorts of miracles. About the crown of the godfather said that this is his long-time gift to Marie. And then came the folding and nice nephew of the godfather, who gave Fritz a new sword, and Marie - a piercing. He confessed to Marie that he was no longer a Shcheluchik, and invited her to go to his country. A year later, he took her to a state full of wonders and wonders.
