Summary "Deutsche Humoristen, 2. Band (von 8)" by Brentano, Hoffmann, and Zschokke is a collection of humorous literary works written in the early 20th century. This volume features tales from prominent German authors, showcasing various humorous themes and styles from the 19th century. The book encapsulates the wit and charm of these authors through a compilation of anecdotes and narratives intended to entertain readers. The opening of "Deutsche Humoristen, 2. Band" introduces the first story, "Die mehreren Wehmüller oder ungarische Nationalgesichter" by Clemens Brentano. The tale begins with Herr Wehmüller, a traveling painter who, amidst the ongoing plague in Croatia, is eager to make his way to his wife in Siebenbürgen. He is anxious about the delays in his journey and the rumor of his illustrious contemporaries who seek his talents. Wehmüller is characterized as a determined yet comedic figure as he attempts to navigate obstacles surrounding a mysterious doppelgänger also bearing his name, leading to a series of humorous misunderstandings involving soldiers, local villagers, and his longing for his wife.
