Abstract

en_US
As the opening T of C shows, this book collects perhaps seventy old children's pieces, from simple rhymes for young children to extended fairytales. Grimm, Hey, Hoffmann von Fallersleben, and Trojan are among the most frequent contributors. Many of the pieces seem to be illustrated by the original or at least old-time black-and-white illustrations, including Doré and Grandville. Fables appear often enough along the way. I note that Hey's story of the fox and the goose is closer than many of his pieces to being an Aesopic fable (32). Der Hahn und der Fuchs by Ludwig Bechstein (111) has the fox declaring that the rooster is a prophet and that he would love to kiss the head of a prophet. The silly rooster believes him and loses more than his head! Bechstein also tells the story of the race between the hedgehog and the hare (114). Gleim's version of GA is on 181 with Grandville's illustration. At the end there is an AI including both titles and first lines, and then there is an AI of poets. There is a beautiful colored picture on the front cover that seems to me to depict Musicians of Bremen.
