Till Eulenspiegel: His Adventures
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A classic fable of German literature, Till Eulenspiegel is a cheerfully scatological collection of 95 loosely related vignettes depicting the life and times of a famous roving jester. The trickster hero devotes his life to deflating the pompous, the rich, and the smug. The book includes the entire set of 87 sixteenth-century woodcuts, possibly by Albrecht Duerer. It also contains an introduction that establishes the historical context of the tales, discusses the use of satire in the late Medieval and early Renaissance literature.
