...The works of H. Bosco, who sublimated the essence of the southern French climate to create a unique fantasy, are also not to be missed.
[Germany]
In Germany, the first was JHCompe, which published the "Little Children's Library" in 1776 in response to JB Basedow's initiative, and a little later, GA Bürger published "The Adventures of Baron Münchhausen (The Tales of Münchhausen)" in 1786, which was an edited version of RE Raspe's work. The Romantics following Goethe began to collect folk tales. The fruits of this work were Brentano and A. von Arnim's "The Magic Flute of the Boy" and the Brothers Grimm's "Fairy Tales for Children and the Home".

From the Münchhausen Story

...In the 18th century, there was a German aristocrat named Hieronymus Karl Friedrich Freiherr von Münchhausen (1720-97) who loved hunting and was good at telling great stories. The first-person protagonist of "The Tales of Munchausen" is based on this man, and in a good mood he recounts tall tales of hunting and travel, great tales, and fantastic adventures to his friends. Although much of the material is folklore, it was the exiled German Rudolf Erich Raspe (1737-94) who compiled the fragmentary anecdotes and first linked them to the name of Munchausen and published an English version (first published in 1785). It was Bürger who translated the second edition, which included adaptations of excerpts from Lucian's "True Stories," into German and added his own touches, turning it into a classic masterpiece of witty and satirical tall tales ("The Wunderbare Reisen zu Wasser und zu Lande, Feldzüge und lustige Abenteuer des Freiherrn von Münchhausen," first published in 1786).

【ミュンヒハウゼン物語】より

…18世紀ドイツに,ミュンヒハウゼンHieronymus Karl Friedrich Freiherr von Münchhausen(1720‐97)という,狩猟好きで大話の得意な地方貴族が実在したが,《ミュンヒハウゼン物語》はこの人物をモデルにした一人称の主人公が,狩や旅のほら話,大話,奇想天外な冒険などを,一杯機嫌で友人仲間に語りきかせる体裁をとっている。素材の多くはむしろ民間伝承的なものだが,断片的逸話類を集成しミュンヒハウゼンの名と初めて結びつけて英語版を発表したのは,亡命ドイツ人ラスペRudolf Erich Raspe(1737‐94)である(初版1785)。ルキアノスの《ほんとうの話》の抜粋翻案等をつけ加えたその第2版を,ドイツ語に翻訳し独自に筆を加えて,機知と諷刺に富んだほら話の古典的傑作としたのはビュルガーである(《Die Wunderbare Reisen zu Wasser und zu Lande,Feldzüge und lustige Abenteuer des Freiherrn von Münchhausen》初版1786)。…
