About This Item
Many Consider this to be the first comic book published
Den Store Bastian, Danish edition of German Heinrich Hoffmann's children's book Lustige Geschichten und drollige Bilder from 1845, which he wrote for his son as a parody of contemporary moralizing children's books, from the 3rd edition entitled Der Struwwelpeter .
The first Danish edition from 1847 was entitled Vær lydig, or lystige Histoire og moersom Bilder for Börn between 3-6 years , but was given its current title in the 1867 edition.
The parodic tone has been changed to some extent in the Danish translation, and three distinctly threatening and moralizing stories about vanity, garden sickness and licking sickness have been added. Der Struwwelpeter is one of the world's most widely distributed children's books.
The Great Bastian , who gave his name to the Danish title, is called Nikolas in the original edition and is, also in appearance, a brusque variant of Saint Nicolaus , who is also the role model for Santa Claus .
