Abstract

en_US
The back cover praises this Hausbuch as ein zeitloses Standardwerk für die ganze Familie. The front cover has a sticker on it Schönstes Buch Österreichs 2003. Presented in large format, the book is divided into ten sections, each with four or five examples. Together, the forty-nine individual items form a fine representation of fables and the fabulous. Authors represented by more than one work include Aesop, Wilhelm Busch, Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, Martin Luther, Italo Svevo, Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach, and Folke Tegetthoff. The ten categories are titled with famous German fable-phrases: wer den Pfennig nicht ehrt; wer andern eine Grube gräbt; Undank ist der Welten Lohn; übe stets Bescheidenheit; wer nichts wagt; geteilte Freude ist doppelte Freude; erst denken, dann handeln; wenn zwei sich streiten; Lebenslust & Lebensfrust; and wer zuletzt lacht. Some of the fables here that are new to me include Vom Bäumlein, das andre Blätter hat gewollt by Friedrich Rückert (12); Waldwolf und Steppenwolf from Native Americans (28); Der Esel und der Papagei and Der Kleine Vogel, two new favorites of mine by Italo Svevo (30); Der Schmetterling und die Blume (32) and Die Meise (40) by Wilhelm Busch; Die Ameisen by Joachim Ringelnatz (42); Die Schnecke und der Tiger by Heinz Janisch (42); Der Lastträger by Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach (49); Tausend Spiegel, a new favorite by Folke Tegetthoff (52); Die Maus in der Falle by Franz Kafka (66); and Papperlapapp by Josef Guggenmoss (84). Unfortunately, the book takes Herder's version of SW, which tells the story in poorer fashion (72). Every story gets at least a small design; many have a full-page illustration. The latter appear on only the right-hand pages facing their fable texts on the left. The illustrations tend to elongate human arms and limbs and add umbrellas. One of the best full-page illustrations is Die Frösche in der Milch (45).
