| Summary | "Märchen und Sagen" by Ernst Moritz Arndt is a collection of folk tales and legends written in the early 19th century. The book features a variety of stories, showcasing the cultural and moral lessons prevalent in German folklore, often with supernatural elements and moral quandaries explored through captivating narratives. The opening of "Märchen und Sagen" presents a rich tapestry of stories, beginning with tales of farmers encountering strange, fiery phenomena that promise wealth but ultimately lead to unexpected consequences. We meet characters such as curious and ambitious farmers who are drawn to a mysterious fire, believing it to be a source of fortune. However, what they find is instead a humorous twist of fate that underscores a moral lesson. The opening invites readers into a world where the line between ambition and caution is finely drawn, setting the tone for the whimsical and cautionary tales that follow throughout the collection.
