Wilhelm Hauff (1802 – 1827) was a German poet and novelist. His “Sämtliche Werke” (Collected Works), with a biography, edited by Gustav Schwab, were published in three volumes 1830–1834. A selection from his works was published by Max Mendheim, originally in three volumes, in 1891. Considering his brief life, Hauff was an extraordinarily prolific writer. The freshness and originality of his talent, his inventiveness, and his genial humor have won him a high place among the southern German prose writers of the early nineteenth century.
