"Der Zweifüßler und andere Geschichten: Naturgeschichtliche Märchen" by Karl Ewald is a collection of nature-based fables written in the early 20th century. The stories revolve around anthropomorphized animals and explore themes such as survival, community, and the emergence of human traits in the animal kingdom. The main characters introduced in the opening chapter are the titular Zweifüßler, two upright walking humans, and various animals who react to their presence, reflecting on the nature of their existence. The opening of the book establishes an idyllic natural setting filled with vibrant life and a variety of animals, each with distinct personalities. The narrative describes the unexpected arrival of two creatures that walk on two legs, which intrigues and confounds the forest animals, who debate their nature and purpose. As the Zweifüßler demonstrate their unique skills—such as healing a wounded dog—the animals shift from fear to curiosity. Their initial trepidation gives way to the animals' engagement with these new beings, showcasing the interplay between instinctual fear and the potential for coexistence, setting the stage for deeper explorations of societal dynamics as the story unfolds.
