Deutsche Fabeln und Lieder der Aufklärung

Abstract

There are six authors in this paperback book: Lessing, Hagedorn, Gellert, Lichtwer, Gleim, and Pfeffel. I am surprised that Gellert has even more fables here than Lessing. The runs of Chodowiecki's engravings are not very good, but they are plentiful. There is a Bildverzeichniss on 307-10. A Quellenverzeichniss and a T of C follow. Songs and fables are not distinguished in the organisation of this book.
