AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Author/Editor:
Wolfgang von Goethe
Title:
Reineke Fuchs. With drawings by Wilhelm von Kaulbach, etched by R. Rahn and A. Schleich.
Collation:
4° (approx. 32 x 28 cm), 2 (w) leaves, Frontispiece, with etched title, title page, 257 pages, 1 leaf, 2 (w) leaves, 35 steel-engraved plates as well as 24 wood-engraved vignettes in the text.
Publisher/Place/Year:
J. G. Cotta'scher Verlag / Stuttgart and Tübingen / 1846
Description:
The plot centers on the sly, cunning fox Reineke, who at the court of King Nobel (the lion) is accused by the other animals of serious crimes—including murder, theft, and bodily harm. In turn the bear Braun and the cat Hinze are sent out to drag Reineke to court. But Reineke outsmarts them all with his rhetoric, greed, and brutality. In the end he even manages, through lies and flattery, to win the king’s favor, defeat his rival (the wolf Isegrim) in a duel, and be appointed Reich Chancellor.
Condition:
Binding somewhat rubbed and bumped, the front joint at the top with a crease, otherwise well preserved. Paper, as is almost always the case, uniformly slightly browned, occasionally with light brown spots. A beautiful overall impression of this splendid work.
Keywords: Goethe, Reineke Fuchs, Kaulbach, first edition, steel engraving, Cotta, leather binding, magnificent edition, fable, 1846.
