Summary "Ehstnische Märchen. Zweite Hälfte" by Friedrich Reinhold Kreutzwald and F. Löwe is a collection of Estonian fairy tales written in the late 19th century. This compilation showcases a variety of folk stories that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Estonia, featuring mythical creatures, moral lessons, and unique characters, such as wise women and heroic figures. The tales aim to provide readers with a glimpse into the nation's traditions, beliefs, and the influences of various cultures on Estonian folklore. The opening of the collection presents an introductory context where the author, Kreutzwald, is praised for his dedication to documenting Estonian oral stories. It explains how this volume serves as the second half of a larger work, with the first half published earlier. Following this context, the initial tales are introduced, beginning with "Baumling und Borkling," which narrates the story of a miserly innkeeper who struggles to retain his workers due to inadequate sustenance. Through clever exchanges and supernatural elements, such as hiring enchanted servants, the tale explores themes of greed and consequence in a humorous light, setting the tone for the whimsical yet meaningful stories to follow.
