Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Reynard the Fox: A Burlesque Poem From the Low-German Original of the Fifteenth Century The Fable of the Fox is of a very ancient origin; for it may be traced in several languages, particularly in the German and French, up to the thirteenth Century, and probably it existed even before that period. For it is reported that a certain Earl Reynard, or Reginard, a vassal of King Sventebold of Lorraine, who lived in the tenth Century of our Era, being outlawed and persecuted by his Sovereign, found means, by dint of his slyness, to elude all the persecutions of his King, insomuch that his name had become proverbial, as denoting a sly and cunning person; and it is supposed by many, that the adventures of this Earl furnished the first materials for the fable.
