Abstract

en_US This book represents one of the nicer finds in my visit to Scandinavia. It is the kind of book I expected to find more of--and in fact have found more of on the web after the visit. It offers 203 fables on 155 pages, following, as the title-page says, the edition of Thomas James, presumably of 1848. It includes, without acknowledging the artist, the engravings of John Tenniel (or perhaps some of those of Joseph Wolf?). In fact, it makes a good choice of the best Tenniel illustrations to offer. The illustrations here, not listed in the book itself, are FG (1), The Old Hound (11), DS (16), LM (22), OF (27), TB (39), The Ass and the Dog (45), BS (58), The Herdsman and the Lion (65), The Cat in a Bag (74), The Cook and the Uninvited Dog (82), The Ass and His Driver (92), The Crow and the Ram (103), The Camel and His Driver (116), The Ass and the Religious Object (121), The Ass and the Horse (124), The Fisherman and His Nets (131), The Old Lion (141), and six images for MSA (151-55). The book shows extensive foxing. Bodemann incorrectly describes an 1880 edition (Bodemann #314.2) by the same editor and publisher as Dän. Erstausgabe.
