About this book

The first printed collection of riddles in German, the so-called »Straßburger Rätselbuch«, ran to 39 known editions covering a period of 280 years from 1510 to 1789. This makes it one of the most successful early modern books in German on a worldly subject. At a very early stage, the popularity of the riddles and joke questions contained in the collection spawned not only a spate of counter-publications but also various imitations. As a best-seller it initiated a whole new genre, the 'Rätselbuch'. To this day, its numerous representatives have handed down in written form a wide range of riddles frequently classified as "folk riddles."

Reviews

"[...] ist ein gewichtiges Handbuch entstanden, das weitere Rätselstudien fördern kann und für die Zeit des 15. und 17. Jahrhunders unentbehrliche sein dürfte."
Volker Schupp in: Arbitrium 1/2009

"Big books like this one need to be in important research libraries"
In: Biblothéque d'Humanisme et Renaissance LXXI, 2/2009
