Abstract
I am surprised not to find this book in Bodemann. The first edition of this book was done by Spamer in 1868. His Vorwort speaks of the addition especially of Krylov to this third edition. Bodemann #350.1 presents the colored frontispiece of this edition and refers to many of the same fabulists whose work is represented here. Spamer was one of the publishers of that book of contes, fables, maxims, and proverbs. This may be a much smaller version of that book. The ABC feature of the book comes in the alphabetical listing of the main virtue presented by the fable, starting with Arbeit, Arbeitsamkeit, and Arglist. Just after that T of C, there is a two-page list of the fabulists represented here: Aesop, Bidpai, Boner, Bürger, Chamisso, Florian, Gay, Gellert, Gleim, Götz, Hagedorn, Hebel, Hey, Hoffmann, Kerner, Krylov, Lachambeaudie, La Fontaine, Lambein, Lausch, Lessing, Lichtwer, Locman, Michaelis, Nicolay, Pfeffel, Phaedrus, Rückert, Sachs, Schoppe, Spitta, Vogt, and Weitze. If the virtue is not enough to list at the top of each page, there are more virtues listed at the bottom of each page. Thus, for the first fable, there is Arbeit at the page-top and Emsigkeit - Fleiss - Tätigkeit at the page-bottom! There are some eighty-two illustrations, regularly close to a half-page in size. The FC illustration on 7 is fine! So is Blinder Eifer (29), also the theme of the colored frontispiece. Wolf, Fox, and Monkey is another fine illustration (65). TMCM on 183 is unusual. All of the illustrations are on the right-hand page. I recognize almost all of these fables.
