Ferdinand Hofer leads into the dark world of E. T. A. Hoffmann
When the boundaries between everyday life and the supernatural shift in the customer hall of the Sparkasse Landshut, a literary experience of special intensity begins: Ferdinand Hofer presents four mysterious tales by E. T. A. Hoffmann as part of the 23rd Landshut Literature Days.
Romance with Goosebumps and Psychological Pull
The actor, known as Kalli Hammermann from Tatort Munich, travels as Nathanael through Hoffmann's multifaceted narrative worlds. The program includes The Sandman, The Fräulein von Scuderi, The Adventures of Sylvester Night, and The Elixirs of the Devil. Hoffmann's literature combines romantic linguistic artistry with elements of horror fiction, psychological tension, and fantastic insecurity.
Four Narratives, One Protagonist, One Mysterious Stranger
The staging places the major questions of black romanticism at the center: Where does reality end, when does madness begin, and what form does the supernatural take? Ferdinand Hofer gives the characters and motifs a compelling voice and makes the narrative ambiguity of Hoffmann's work immediately tangible.
Literature Days Celebrate a Master of German Romanticism
The mystery-thriller reading also commemorates the 250th birthday of E. T. A. Hoffmann. His tales are among the defining texts of German romanticism and resonate even today: in fantastic literature, in psychological thrillers, and in modern forms of the mystery genre. The conception, text adaptation, and supporting roles are taken over by Thomas Ecker.
An Evening for Literature Lovers and Thrill Seekers
The reading atmosphere promises a concentrated author encounter with great linguistic skill. Between eerie images, inner abysses, and romantic fantasy, an evening emerges that combines literary quality with scenic presence. Those who want to not only read Hoffmann's works but also experience their voices, fractures, and shadows live will find here an extraordinary access.
Conclusion
Ferdinand Hofer makes E. T. A. Hoffmann's mysterious tales an immersive literary experience. Four classics of German romanticism, a charismatic interpreter, and an atmosphere between reality and nightmare await the audience on November 21, 2026, in Landshut.
