Creaţia lui E.T.A. Hoffmann, bogătă în structuri lexicale şi sintactice, a influenţat literatura artistică a epocilor ulterioare. Varietatea cîmpurilor semantice: realii religioase, viaţa interioară a eroilor dau posibilitate studenţilor să-şi îmbogăţească vocabularul şi să-l aplice nu numai la orele practice de analiză a textului, de lexicologie şi de stilistică, dar şi în comunicarea cotidiană. Un factor important în învăţarea limbilor străine îl constituie cunoaşterea genezei lor. Operele literare ale lui E.T.A. Hoffmann, create la începutul secolului al XIX-lea, combină elemente arhaice cu structuri care au contribuit la dezvoltarea ulterioară a limbii. Unităţile lexicale şi structurile sintactice asimilate la orele practice de lectură colectivă ar fi un material practic util pentru seminarele la istoria limbii germane.  

E.T.A. Hoffmann’s creation, author of fiction novels and fairy tales, influenced the literature of the subsequent periods. His works are amazing due to the great number of lexical and syntactic structures. The variety of lexical fields on different topics, for example, colour palette, sound scale, religious realia and texts, description of daily life, the interior world of the characters allow students of German to enrich their vocabulary and to use it not only at the practical lessons in text analysis, lexicology and stylistics, but also in everyday communication. Familiarization and the profound knowledge of genesis of foreign languages constitute an important factor in their study. E.T.A. Hoffmann’s artistic texts, created at the beginning of the 19th century, combined elements that are out of use in Modern German and those that determined its development. The archaic lexical units and syntactic structures learnt at the lessons of homereading will make the workshops in the history of the German language more effective.
