Abstract

en_US We already have one copy of this book, identical down to every detail I can notice except for one. The publisher has pasted "Max Niemeyer Verlag Tübingen" on the title-page over the previous "Halle a.S./Max Niemeyer/1892." Braune's forward is still dated in 1892. I have been unable to find out when the publisher moved from Halle to Tübingen, but it seems to have happened between 1930 and 1969. Here are remarks I made about our first copy of the book. This little (about 4¾" x 7") paperbound book in remarkably good condition is the one book Bodemann cites as a reference for the work of Erasmus Alberus in "Fabula Docet" (#9). It contains LXXII pages of introductory material: Vorwort, Einleitung, Die Alten Ausgaben der Fabeln, Der Text des Neudrucks, Die Quellen der Fabeln, Zur Würdigung der Fabeldichtung des Alberus, and Die Ortsangaben bei Alberus. Then follow Alberus' own introductory materials and his forty-nine numbered fables on some 216 pages. The introductory materials include a title-page, Vorrede, T of C, and life of Aesop. There are copious footnotes to the fable texts. A number of them seem to indicate textual variations. I read Alberus' first fable, CJ. It is placed "bey Dantzig." Alberus moralizes the story quite simply: The jewel is art. The rooster is crazy people who live only for eating and drinking. There is no identification of the jewel with this book. Jewel or not, I feel very lucky to have come across this little book!
