Peter Schlemihl is an ordinary man until one day he bargains with the devil: He trades his shadow for a bottomless purse. While this sounds like a good idea at first, it turns out that having no shadow is considered to be so strange by society, that even unlimited wealth cannot repair such a fault. The story of Peter Schlemihl is exceedingly well-known even today, but the original text is not so widely-read as it once was. This very accessible translation by F.H. Hedge may be a good introduction to modern listeners. - Summary by Carolin

Story0
In Peter Schlemihl, the luckless hero enters into a deal with a mysterious stranger, only to learn, that he dealt with the proverbial. He soon discovers that wealth can't buy respectability. It’s a tale as darkly funny as it is sharp, reminding us that some things in life (like dignity and not creeping people out) are priceless. - Summary by Antipode

Was dabei herauskommt, wenn ein Naturforscher sich der Märchendichtung widmet, wirft einen langen Schatten auf nach ihm Kommendes. Was wäre, wenn man sich des lästigen Nachzüglers kurzerhand entledigen könnte? Es ist gleichzeitig der Versuch Chamissos, nicht nur für sich neue Wurzeln zu finden, während sie gerade auszureißen drohen. Hier geht es um die Bewältigung der Befreiungskriege auf literarische Art, der Dichter war in Frankreich geboren, lebte jedoch in Preußen.
