- Abstract
- en_US This little book belongs to the curious section of my collection. Tibetan poetry in German! Pages 177-240 are given to Tibetan fables (with notes on 250-53). This section seems to be a long Buddhist sermon. At points it works from a proverbial promythium and launches into a fable (or legend or story). The reading was very tough for me. I found two good new fables: about finding mouse bones and hair in the excrement of a lying cat (184) and about an elephant and mouse helping each other (203). Some old friends here include stories about the lion and hare looking into the well (202), the four creatures who had fallen into a well (205), the indigo fox (211), and the frog not believing the turtle who has fallen into his well (216).
