- Abstract
- en_US Apparently this work was first published by the Friedenauer Presse in 1969 in an edition of 400 copies. The flyleaf says that this 1988 copy follows that original. I cannot yet be sure, but I believe that this was a press in the Russian Zone of the city; it was in any case famous for Russian literature. The fables and quips reported here would fit that regime. I have to admit that most escape me; perhaps the language is too colloquial for me. How much do you want lay on? asks the car dealer. One is the answer: One handcuff for every member of your company! (3). From 1525 recommends that one bow deeply enough when the ruler is distant, less deeply when he is closer. Stand up when he is right before you. Now guess his answer to this show of friendship (9). Does the ass declare a strike -- a secret departure from his office -- rather than fight back for all the beatings he has taken (9)? I think that there is a good wordplay I can catch in Ein Augenzeuge spricht: the presiding officer grasped the word, led it out the side exit into free space, and returned without words to applause for his presence of mind in a tough situation (11). Das Wort ergreifen means generally to speak up, but here it has the man grabbing free speech and throwing it out. Sanierung der Stadtviertel takes a hard line. A man sits on his suitcase in a caved in house. A dynamite specialist waves him in a direction with loud cries, but the seated man remains seated and waves back (10). Vor Redaktionschluss sounds like Thurber's Don't get it right; get it written! The future belongs to the four-legged man, the man who has troubled himself to grow two more legs. This is progress! Print this text now! So here is another ephemeral flower for the fable collection's bouquet! It did get printed!
