Abstract
-
en_US
This little volume contains fifty fables on some 65 pages, with a T of C and a number of advertisements for other works by Schubart at the end. The fables seem clever to me. Vom Wachstum (24) has a reed say to a lark Ten days ago I was half your height. Now I am your size and in ten days I will be twice your height. The lark answers That is why you will never be a tree. Gonner (40) presents two patrons of a young drama writer, whose second play has just failed. The first says he will drop him immediately. The second says that he will still support him because he does not want to admit to people that he is a false prophet. In Spatz und Löwe (47), a huge crowd of people has gathered around a fierce tethered lion. A sparrow flits about, looks compassionately at the lion, and says I think the poor fool of a lion thinks that these people have come to see him when they are really admiring my daredevil movements. On the title-page, the publisher is crossed out and another name carelessly stamped in, something like Verlag der ? Lutsz'schen Buchhandlung, Trier. Schubart created another work, apparently, named Tiere und Menschen: Skizzen. The typeface here is Fraktur, the old German script.
