Die Schiltbürger:The amusing stories of the people of the little town of Schilda are well known. The author also uses the tales of the Schiltbürgers’ feigned stupidity to warn that “a wise man who believes he must appear foolish to the world in order for his wisdom to go undisputed inevitably becomes a fool.” In the context of this analysis Günter Schmitz examines in detail the origins of the work in his introduction. | |
