The Story of the Caliph Stork
"The Story of the Caliph Stork" is a work by the German writer and short story writer W. Gauff (1802–1827). This tale, published in 1826, is permeated with oriental motifs. This is what makes it extraordinary and exciting. As in many of the author's fairy tales, appearance is only a shell that hides the essence of a person. In "The Tale of the Caliph the Stork" a symbol is used: the caliph and his vizier are turned into a stork, and the princess is hidden behind the owl. The theme of love is the main one in the fairy tale. Gauff also wrote the following works: "The Tale of the Imaginary Prince", "The Sheikh of Alexandria and His Slaves", "The Monkey Man", "Almansor's Tale", "The Rescue of Fatma".
