Abstract

en_US
Here is a heavily illustrated presentation of nineteenth century caricatures out of contemporary journals. There are some 136 black-and-white illustrations on 188 pages. I find two that make their statements by appealing to fables. Illustration #58 on 69 from Punch in 1860 presents a fine wolf in sheep's clothing sending a letter to England. This wolf -- Napoleon III? -- has little sheep labeled Savoy and Nice already in his pockets. As a good caricature, it has human hands and a human face visible underneath the lamb's head. The lower body -- back legs and tail -- are those of a wolf. The book's identifier underneath this illustration speaks of Die verdächtigen Anbiederungsversuche Napoleons III. England gegenüber. Illustration #61 on 73 presents an 1865 Kladderadatsch caricature on Napoleon III's aims on the Rhein. Apparently a French Renard looks up at the flowing Rhine -- and especially the flowing Rhinewein -- and remarks Die Trauben sind sauer. This French Renard carries palm branches declaring The empire is the peace. This book seems to have been a special publication for the Dietz Bucherkreis. Several colored illustrations occur in the course of the book.
