The Serapion Brethren, Vol. I. by E. T. A. Hoffmann

"The Serapion Brethren, Vol. I." by E. T. A. Hoffmann is a collection of novellas and fairytales published in 1819. The work presents stories through a fictional framework: six friends gather to share tales and debate whether each adheres to the mysterious "Serapion Principle." Named after Hoffmann's real literary circle in Berlin, the collection weaves together twenty-eight stories with the friends' lively discussions, blending fiction with literary theory in the Romantic tradition.
