Abstract

en_US Here is Liebchen's second volume, following upon his Die Fabel: Das Vergnügen der Erkenntnis (1990). It is made up of two major parts. First there are some ninety-four fables. Then there is a section on writing of fables and the stylistic qualities of fables. Some of the ninety-four fables seem to me to be those I already encountered in Liebchen's first book. Fable asks Joke why she seems so old and he seems so young. He is beloved, and she is avoided, even though he is quickly forgotten. Joke answers I learned from the Fable (8). A wolf all bloodied encounters a fox, who asks what is up. I had a fight with a rabbit. A rabbit? I gave him free choice of weapons. And? He chose the bear (16). A parrot surprises a fox in the garden, because the parrot uses the voice of his master. You call yourself clever when a foreign language can frighten you? The fox acknowledges the parrot's talent. Come down here and I will show you my skill. She does, and he eats her on the spot. She should have paid more attention to thinking and less to foreign languages (16). The thirty black-and-white full-page illustrations are creative multi-media compositions in the general category of modern art. Liebchen begins his section on fable-writing by distinguishing the rhetorical fable that he is dealing with. Rhetorical refers to its use. A rhetorical fable functions in the context of a speech and offers its convincing contribution to that speech. Rhetorical fable is a logical structure that serves this function. Rhetorical fable does not serve to edify and it takes no account of the sensitivity of its hearer. Its relation is to reality and its argument appeals to reason. Hence the sub-title of this work: Realität und Argument. Fable uses a kind of distancing effect to present a human problem through lower actors and in this way to bring old situations into a new perspective. The paradoxical element of fable is an artistic attempt to overcome blockage of thought; it is meant to allow new thoughts. The stylistic elements of fable grow out of this function and purpose. Rhetorical fable is not children's literature!
