Abstract

Here is a 1957 reprint of the work done originally in 1955. I see no changes except the date on the title-page and an added line on the colophon-page at the end. Here are my comments on the original: This is an excellent paperback meant to help classroom work on fables throughout grade school. There are fifty-seven fables overall; they are divided into three sections, with each section meant for one of three levels in grade school (Grundstufe, Mittelstufe, and Oberstufe). The selection and approach are both excellent. Notice that this book has been printed and produced by German banks; would a bank in the USA ever produce a book of fables for use in schools? I have made a note of the fables that were new to me as I read through this booklet. They include Der Affe und der Reisvogel (29); Der Pfau und der Hahn (32); Falke und Huhn (35); Der Fuchs und die Gans (36); Der Goldfasan (38); Büffel- oder Ziegenbraten (41; a very good story from Indonesia); Der Affe als Schiedsrichter (42; this traditional Aesopic fable is presented as from Korea); Die weise Krähe (55; this story is something of a mystery to me); Der Lockvogel (56); Hamster und Ameise (59); Der Affe und die Nuss (59); Der Reisende und sein Helfer (66); Der Arme und das Glück (72); Die beiden Pflugscharen (72); Unübertrefflicher Sparsinn (73); Das Testament (74); and Die Schnecke (75).
