| Summary | "Der Goldene Topf" by E. T. A. Hoffmann is a narrative fantasy written in the early 19th century. The story revolves around a student named Anselmus, who experiences a blend of reality and the supernatural, as he navigates a world filled with strange occurrences, prophetic advice, and alluring entities, particularly centered around a captivating golden serpent. The opening of the tale introduces the protagonist, Anselmus, as he encounters an old woman selling apples and cakes at a market in Dresden, leading to a humorous yet embarrassing mishap. Despite the friendly atmosphere, he becomes haunted by the witch's ominous words and feels plagued by a string of bad luck that reflects his deep-seated dissatisfaction with life. As he seeks solace by the Elbe River, he experiences a mystical moment, hearing whispers and seeing three radiant green serpents, igniting a deep longing within him. This moment of enchantment sets the stage for Anselmus's journey into a realm where reality and magic intertwine, foreshadowing the quests and challenges that lie ahead as he grapples with his enchanting visions and earthly misfortunes.
