"In contrast to this 'one-world' fairy-tale, there is in Hoffmann's GP a dramatic tension between two (or more) worlds, which is perhaps more characteristic of the fantasy tradition explored in this book [...]. Indeed, with GP we can perhaps see the beginnings of the idea of 'Muggles' with the typical Romantic contempt for the bourgeois 'Philistines', a term actually coined by German students in the Romantic period."
