Description
1857 Reynard the Fox Goethe Reineke Fuchs Fable German Fairy Tale Illustrated BEAUTY
Reynard the Fox has been a stable of fairy tale lore for centuries, with many countries, such as German, France, and other Low Countries, claiming the honor of his birth-place. Told as a brute-epic, this tale of cunning mischief was finally written and printed during the late 15th- and early 16th-centuries. In fact, some scholars believe the origins of Reynard to have come from the 9th-century!
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was a famous German author who is best known for his novels and epic poems such as Sorrows of Young Werther and Faust. One of his less-popular works, curiously, was his edition of the famous fable Reynard the Fox.
