About
And Rare Conceits
A humorous collection of tales centered around the legendary German trickster, Tyll Owlglass (also known as Till Eulenspiegel). Set in the medieval period, the book recounts the many clever pranks, witty jests, and absurd antics performed by Owlglass as he roams from town to town across Europe. Tyll is a mischievous figure who delights in exposing human folly, hypocrisy, and pretension, often turning the tables on the wealthy, pompous, or overly self-important.
First published in 1860, this edition is derived from the original book with 34 black & white illustrations by Alfred Crowquill. As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
