Abstract
-
en_US
This is one of three printings I have of the first volume of this work. Like the apparent first edition, this edition prints on only one side of the page. Also like the first edition, it has heavy paper and is therefore quite thick. On both those points, the seventh edition will differ. The social critique involved in these pages is for me as poignant as ever. As I wrote of the first edition, it is one step from being a fable book, but it is too delightful to leave out of the collection. Animals here are an effective means for putting social types in their place. The wit and skill make one think of Grandville. Among the most notable and fable-like illustrations here are Der Unerbittliche (apparently a customs officer, 5), Der neue Hut (7), Scheiden tut weh! (10), Der Mäcenas im Atelier (12), Der Galan (15), Besser so einer -- als gar keiner! (17), Das Opfer der Wohltätigkeit (25), Der Besuch der Erbtante (32), and Schimpf' so viel Du magst -- ich bin von Natur Dickhäuter! (35). Obviously, I like this work!
