Books with author Rudolph Baumbach

This translation from the original German by Helen B. Dole was initially printed in 1888 and has added illustrations. The German title was Sommermärchen.From the preface: “Rudolph Baumbach [1840-1905] is a poet. He was born in Thuringia, and now lives in Leipsic, where he is a favorite both as a writer and in society. Most of his works have been written in verse, which is spontaneous, full of melody, and as witty as Heine, but perfectly free from bitterness. He draws his inspiration largely from the Alps. His ‘Zlatorog,’ an Alpine story, has reached the twenty-second edition, and the ‘Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen’ and ‘Frau Holde’ are each in the thirteenth edition.“The present collection of short stories has been taken from two little volumes in prose, entitled, ‘Sommer-Märchen’ and ‘Erzählungen und Märchen,’ which have been very popular in Germany. More than eleven editions of the first volume have been sold, and six of the second. The stories are remarkable for their grace and simplicity of style. They are full of originality and wit, with occasional touches of keen satire, showing knowledge of the world as well as a familiarity with every bird and flower and creature in forest, field, and mountain. The stories are more for young people than children, yet the ‘Easter Rabbit’ will be enjoyed by the little ones, while the fun in the ‘Ass’ Spring’ will appeal to children of a larger growth. They are not altogether fairy-tales, though all border on the marvelous, and sprites, elves, and other mysterious folk from Wonderland play a conspicuous part.”Rudolf Baumbach also wrote Frau Holde, Spielmannslieder, Von der Landstraße, and Thüringer Lieder.This book has the following stories: Ranunculus, The Meadow Sprite; The Legend of the Daisy; The Clover Leaf; The Easter Bunny; The Golden Tree; The Magic Bow; The Water of Forgetfulness; Theodelinda and the Water-Sprite; The Four Evangelists; The Witching-Stone; The Talkative House-Key; The Forgotten Bell; The Christmas Rose; The Adder-Queen; The Blacksmith’s Bride; The Beech-Tree; The Ass’ Spring; The Water of Youth; The Disappointed Dwarf; The Egyptian Fire-Eater; A Happy Marriage.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
