Abstract
-
en_US
Here are thirty fables by Michalkov. I have commented at some length on his fables elsewhere (in German in 1954? and 1955; and in English in 1968, 1969, and 1988). The first of two notable things about the presentation of his work here is the slanted Cyrillic script. It is crafted to resemble handwritten script and always concludes in a word slanting down right. The second feature lies in the copious illustrations. These specialize in a cross-hatched dark quality. Though cartoonlike, they have a strong impact. Some of the best include The Elephant Artist (11); The Necessary Ass (35); Crime Without Punishment (51); The Sailor Turkey (61); and The Changed Raccoon (67). There is a T of C at the end.
