In this work, Ziolkowski pits wise Solomon against a wily peasant named Marcolf. While it is widely known by name, until now it has not been translated into any modern language. This volume offers an introduction, followed by the Latin and English, detailed commentary, and reproductions of woodcut illustrations from the 1514 edition.
