Abstract
-
en_US
This is one of the most helpful of books on classical fables, because it presents a complete set of translations of ancient fables. Thus it has five different versions noted under Der Fuchs u. die Trauben in the AI, which is organized by characters. The book begins with a careful introduction on the history of fables. The texts themselves are on 11-451. They run from Hesiod to Ignatius Diakonos. For each author, the fables are numbered successively in parentheses after the texts; the texts for Ignatius run thus from #1 to #57 on 437-51. There are only ten pages of comments (455-465). The following bibliography includes a concordance of numbers comparing Irmscher, Hausrath, Perry, Halm, and Chambry. Irmscher's numbers are in fact identical with Hausrath's from #1 through #307, with the exception of a few marked with an additional a and #287. Then follows the very helpful AI. I also have the third edition, printed with a new dust jacket, in 1991. It reflects the change in political organization. See my comments there under 1978/91.
