This Festschrift for Wolfgang Mieder, preeminent paremiologist and
folklorist, combines personal tributes and scholarly papers by
colleagues, friends, and former students - presented in three
categories that address his roles as a mentor, scholar, and world
citizen over many decades. The central scholarly section likewise
consists of three parts. The papers dealing with proverbs examine
them as patterns, stereotypes, rhetorical devices, media for
self-enchantment, and means of allusion in works by Tolstoy,
Solzhenitsyn, Chukovskaya, and Kempowski. A second group deals with
fairy-tale motifs in literary works by Lehmann, Rabinowich, and
Hummel. A third section includes topics ranging from James Bond to
Stephen King, from runaway slaves to the Holocaust, and literature
as cultural ecology.
