Abstract
-
en_US
A hidden treasure sitting in the Collectible section of a favorite bookstore. In the midst of a delightfully broad and understandably heavily German spectrum of fabulists, I find the selection here surprising. Aesop is represented with five fables, Babrius with three, Phaedrus with two. Lessing has twenty-seven, LaFontaine nineteen, Pestalozzi fifteen, and Gellert fourteen. Krylov (nine), Krasicki (four), and Leonardo (two) give some international representation. No English or Spanish fabulists are represented. The short overview on 183-5 notes that the twentieth-century fable (e.g., from Brecht) has moved toward parable and takes its images from the human world. Alphabetical register by authors (with works) on 186. The extra copy, though lacking a dust jacket, is in superior condition, especially in its paper. Thus I keep it in the collection.
