- Abstract
- en_US Here is a surprising addition to the nice book of Leonardo's fables done by the same team in 1973. According to the flyleaf, with this edition, the collection of Leonardo is finished. I find a sometimes not very subtle distinction between the stories here and those in the original volume. These move out into the realm of the mythological and the mysterious and may frequently go beyond the realm of fable. The very title that specifies Tierfabeln, while legitimate in German, may point to a different reality here. Notice the number of fables about fantastic creatures: phoenix, basilisk twice, macli, cerasta, bonaso, jaculo, and two-headed snake. Some items flesh out a normal fable; Der Löwe und der Hahn (34) gives a good sense of why the lion might be afraid of the rooster. Perhaps my favorite in this set of stories is Grossmut (69), in which an eagle teaches her young that the head of a court has to feed those who pay him/her homage by making up the court. Wer hofhalten will, muss grosszügig sein…. See my comments on the original volume and the English version of the same year by Hubbard Press.
