   Uniqueness in Wilhelm Gulf's work
   

One of the most famous storytellers of all time, Wilhelm Hauff, was given too little time to fully develop his talent and potential for amazing imagination. During his short life, the writer from Germany managed to create works in a variety of genres, while leaving a noticeable mark on German literature of the nineteenth century. In his work, poems and stories, novels and fairy tales, which are known to children in various parts of the world, have found their place.

Gauf was born on November 29, 1802 in Germany. At that time, the parents of the future storyteller lived in their own house in a town called Stuttgart. At the same time, the boy's family was rightfully considered prosperous, and therefore occupied not the last place in the social hierarchy. August Friedrich, the father of the future writer, repeated the path of numerous ancestors, faithfully serving his state in positions in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Jadwiga Wilhelmina Elzesser, the mother of the storyteller, was from a fairly well-known noble family from Alsace. Her family for several centuries lived in one of the historical regions of France, for which military conflicts flared up more than once.⁴
The future writer spent the early years of the biography surrounded by brothers, sisters and a beloved cousin, whose name was Louise. When Wilhelm was just seven years old, his father died unexpectedly. A few months later, Jadwiga decided to move with her children to the estate owned by her father. The new house was located on the territory of Tübingen, famous for its large number of educational institutions and a high level of education. By the way, this town was different from others like it, with its kind of romantic atmosphere, which captivated from the very first minute. This happened to the future writer, who, due to his age, was distinguished by impressionability and an unformed worldview.
Even before the boy was sent to school, he had already learned to read. Young Gauf spent a lot of time in his home library, reading the works of classics and contemporaries. At this time, Walter Scott's books from his grandfather's library had a special influence on him. His adventure novels, along with fictional fairy tales from Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm, influenced the perception of the surrounding world, capturing the young mind of the future storyteller.
The plots read penetrated into the young mind and mixed with his personal fantasies, becoming what later became the basis for his own works. The first of them, the young writer told his younger sisters and brothers before going to bed. When the moment came when it was necessary to decide on the future of the offspring, the mother insisted that Wilhelm go to study at the local church school, which functioned at the monastery. In fact, she expected that her son, as one of the descendants of an ancient family, would devote himself to serving the church, thereby adding a new page to the genealogy.
Being obedient and respecting the decision of the mother, the boy did not argue and went to study. Having graduated from one of the oldest faculties of the University of Tübing in the direction of theology and philosophy.⁵ By the way, during the period of his studies, the student perfectly mastered all the knowledge in this area. However, the theory remained a theory, since the matter was not brought to practice. Instead of trying on a church cassock, yesterday's student went as a teacher to the family of the famous baron Ernst Jugen von Högel.
It is worth mentioning here that shortly in 1824, Gauf managed to publish his first poetry collection, which became known as Military and Folk Songs. In it, the writer collected works written during the period of romanticism and related to German folklore, as well as two poems composed by himself. Those around him, and Wilhelm himself, were well aware that he was attracted to literature. And only the lack of good capital did not allow the young talent to continue to develop in this direction. So Wilhelm Hauff ended up in the position of a tutor for a wealthy aristocrat.
There were undoubted advantages in his work. While raising the offspring of a wealthy family, Gauf could travel with them and get to know the world. He visited many cities in Germany, including the homeland of the Brothers Grimm, the city of Kassel. I visited Belgium and France, getting acquainted with the local culture and history. Subsequently, Wilhelm “put” all his impressions on a sheet of paper, wrapping his thoughts in literary works. At the same time, all of them were supplemented with fictional plots, which only added spice to the books. So eight completely magical stories at one time appeared in the literary Almanac, which was printed in 1826 exclusively for the upper class.⁶
