With copper title with figure alphabet and stung frontispiece. 16 x 9.5 cm. A little later semi-leather band (joints slightly shabby) with gold plated and gold-plated RSchild. Leipzig and Gera, Wilhelm Heinsius, 1796. Hayn-Gotendorf III, 543. See Goedeke V, 547, 6, 4. – Second edition of Rebmann's first satirical-comic, partly autobiographical educational and adventure novel published in 1794. "This novel contains not only a biting mockery of the German states and the German Reich constitution; it is at the same time one of the typical utopian novels of this epoch, which is free from any oppression of life a happy person in a republic. He not only reflects the events of the French Revolution, but Rebmann makes his heroes appear in some chapters as defenders of Jacobine rule" (Voegt p. 119). The novel is also counted among the Wertheriads, because the hero - after a true event - is born in a performance of the ballet The sufferings of the young Werther by the performer of the Lotte. – Weakly tanned and somewhat spotted, copper title and frontispiece with small moisture edge, intentions somewhat leimschattig, fl. front intent with partly deleted and overwritten Possession stamp.
