"L'uomo della sabbia" è un racconto di E.T.A. Hoffmann del 1815, inserito nella raccolta "Notturni". È un racconto complesso che affronta innanzitutto il tema dell'ambiguità e, tratto tipicamente romantico, indaga l'immaginario dell'automa. Tra le opere più angosciose di Hoffmann, "L'uomo della sabbia" descrive con tocchi magistrali la regressione psicologica che riporta in vita gli incubi infantili del protagonista, inoltrandosi negli aspetti più reconditi e contorti della psiche umana e nelle manifestazioni oniriche dell’inconscio.

Scritto nel 1816, "Lo Schiaccianoci" continua ad affascinare grandi e piccini da due secoli. Fritz e Marie, come tutti i bambini, vivono con gioia i giorni del Natale. Un amico di famiglia regala loro uno Schiaccianoci di legno: un oggetto innocuo, ma che darà vita alle più incredibili avventure che i due fratelli abbiano mai vissuto. Di notte, in camera di Marie appare infatti il malvagio re dei topi, con sette teste e sette corone, alla guida di un esercito di roditori. Schiaccianoci prende vita e, divenuto generale dei soldatini e dei pupazzi di marzapane, affronta il perfido re.
