Abstract
-
en_US
This is a very sturdy and well-built book of 112 pages. It contains about thirty-six fables in Alsacian. I can make out about three-quarters of what is being communicated, because the language is so close to colloquial German. I have the sense that the author and especially illustrator take liberties with La Fontaine's fables. Which animals are involved how in the startling illustration of The Lion and the Mosquito on 19? The illustrations are hilarious! Among the best are TMCM (29), FC (34), BC (49), UP (63), DW (81), Acorn and Pumpkin (95), and WL (107). Most of the French texts are gathered in several groups. This was a wonderful gift! I doubt that I would ever have found it on my own. Is this really a book put together by a high-school alumni group? The colophon near the end says Réédition, but does not seem to indicate when it was first published.
