- Abstract
- en_US From the Polish original Bajki. Forty fables with very nice colored illustrations. Large format: 9¼ x almost 13. A good example of Eastern Block printing in the 50's. The German verse translations are witty and pithy. See my edition of Krasicki's work Polish Fables: Bilingual Edition from 1997 for comments on his fables. Here I find perhaps a quarter of the fables representations of Aesopic material. There are also a number of fine pithy fables after the manner of Aesop, as when the mouse tells the turtle how pitiable he is for having to live in a virtual prison; the turtle answers that it may be narrow and small but it is his (8)! I enjoy the answer of the clever man to the fool who has just asked him what use reason is: Reason is useful for silence to stupid questions (41). There is a T of C at the rear.
