Abstract

en_US Here is a serious German book. I appreciate that this book brings together Lessing's writings on fable. Even more, I appreciate the gathering on some thirty pages (97-129) of the fables he mentions in his various discourses on fables. They come from Aesop, Phaedrus, La Fontaine, Lichtwer, Gellert, and himself. In fact, they make a fine representative little selection of fables. A curiosity of this book is the conflation of two series. The cover and first page both give the series in which this book exists as Schöninghs Ausgaben deutscher und ausländischer Klassiker mit ausführlichen Erläuterungen. The verso of that page lists Schöninghs Ausgaben deutscher Klassiker mit ausführlichen Erläuterungen and lists this book as one of them. The title-page then has a page facing it. On the left page we get the latter, with this book listed as Volume 31. Perhaps Schöningh was not very careful to distinguish one series from another; Lessing could be in both classic German and classic German and foreign. Somehow that approach does not seem very German to me! The book also has a section on Lessing's literary letters. Its cover and spine titles are Über die Fabel und Literaturbriefe.
