Abstract

en_US Here is the East German version of a book I had found earlier from Parabel Verlag in Munich. I will repeat what I wrote there. A splendid find! Colored (fifteen) and black-and-white (fourteen) woodcuts alternate as the text works through twelve major fables. I think the colored woodcuts are wonderful! One of the twelve, The Monkey and the Turtle (10), includes another fable, The Lion, the Fox, and the Ass. Two of the twelve each include two others: The Hostility of the Animals (30) includes both The Bird, the Rabbit, and the Cat and The Snake and the Frog, while The Crow and the Snake (56) includes The Bird and the Crab and The Bird, the Fish, the Dog, and the Snake. Different: other turtles call out to the flying turtle (28), and a clever bird tells the crab of the danger to the fish, and the crab relays the message to the fish themselves (58). Why should the deer be wounded in the woodcut on 51 for the story The Friendship of the Animals (42)? T of C on 5. Buch der Weisheit is from Lienhart Hollen in Ulm in 1483, according to the Nachwort on 64.
