This article presents information on the book "Des grossen Kampfliegers, Landfahrers, Gauklers und Magiers Till Eulenspiegel Abenteuer, Streiche, Gaukeleien, Gesichte und Träume," by Gerhart Hauptmann. Germany is not only producing books more rapidly than any other country has ever produced them, she is also producing more handsome books than any other country has to offer. One of the most distinguished of her recent publications is Gerhart Hauptmann's "Till Eulenspiegel," a puzzling mystical epic, in hexameters worthy of the elegant quarto format, the solid binding, and the clean, stately type. "Till Eulenspiegel" is as cosmic, as baffling, as unfinished as the more ambitious of its predecessors have always been, a manner that fits the matter.
