Abstract
-
en_US
This is really two books bound together. The cover has a colored illustration of WC. The beginning T of C covers both books. The texts of the first half bring together German fabulists, Aesop, and La Fontaine. The second half is 100 Fabeln für Kinder von Wilhelm Hey -- Nebst einem ernsthaften Anhange. The first half is 128 pages long and includes one-hundred-fifty-four numbered fables. There is a good mixture of prose and verse. The title-page advertises twelve pictures. I find four full-page colored pictures. The frontispiece shows a lion reclining in a farmyard. The second (64) shows a wolf or dog outside a barn but inside a fence. The third (112) shows monkeys wearing boots. The fourth (II 48) shows the bear bringing a very large rock to kill the fly on his sleeping friend's nose. Black-and-white partial-page illustrations show the eagle releasing the turtle in mid-air (47), WC (65), FC (118), Murmeltier tanzt (II 10), Die Ziege (26), and Bär und Klotz (II 44). It may be that two pictures have fallen out of this old text, or that my search missed two, or that the publisher told a partial truth.
