Abstract

en_US Fabeln may be used loosely in this book's title. These are four stories on ancient themes, each with an impressive full-page illustration done on brown paper. The form is verse, or at least broken lines. The first piece is about Paris: Eine Tolle Bescherung, something like What a mess! or A fine kettle of fish! To tell the truth, I find nothing new here. We watch Paris making his fatal mistake. Second comes Diogenes, ich will nicht stören. Alexander talks with Diogenes in his barrel. Diogenes convinces Alexander that might needs truth, but truth does not need might. The last lines say that Alexander admitted the next day that, were he not already Alexander, he would be glad to trade with Diogenes. In the third piece, Lucullus and Brillat-Savarin discuss what one might call the philosophy of gustation. I do not know what this piece is about. Fourth is Neptun im Käfig. This story asks the question--and perhaps many more--Can a god be up-to-date? Did Demiron himself do the four illustrations? Forty-seven pages.
