Abstract

This thin book of 106 pages contains, as the T of C at the end shows, forty-two fables, with appendices offering Gellert's statements about himself, Gellert and bibliophiles, and excerpts from literary exercises of Gellert's. The fables are portioned out in their original books. The pictures, which come out quite dark here, include an enlarged medallion of Gellert (frontispiece); Die Nachtigall und die Lerche (9); Der Tanzbär (13, perhaps the best of the lot); Damötas und Phyllis (35); Der arme Greis (67); Die Bauern und der Amtmann (77); Die Frau und der Geist (81); Hanns Nord (83); and Der Held und der Reitknecht (89). I checked out several fables here that are new to me: Die zärtliche Frau (41); Der zärtliche Mann (43); and Der junge Drescher (59).
