(Bilingual English-German edition / Zweisprachige Ausgabe Englisch-Deutsch) In this amusing story, an old woman encounters an eagle for the first time. Perplexed by its unfamiliar appearance, she decides to change it to suit her own ideas of what a bird should look like. Her efforts mirror a common pattern of human thought: altering the unfamiliar to make it acceptable. This tale is specially presented for children by Afghan author Idries Shah, who, for more than 30 years, collected stories from the Sufi tradition and adapted them to contemporary Western culture. Told since ancient times throughout Central Asia and the Middle East, such tales are used to help foster greater mental flexibility and insight in people of all ages. The Old Woman and the Eagle is wonderfully illustrated by Natasha Delmar, who was taught to paint by her father, the celebrated classic Chinese painter Ng Yi-Ching.
In dieser amüsanten Geschichte begegnet eine alte Frau zum ersten Mal einem Adler. Verblüfft über sein ungewohntes Aussehen, beschlie t sie, es zu ändern, um ihren eigenen Vorstellungen davon zu entsprechen, wie ein Vogel aussehen sollte. Ihre Bemühungen spiegeln ein gemeinsames menschliches Denkmuster wider: das Unbekannte zu verändern, um es akzeptabel zu machen. Diese Geschichte wird speziell für Kinder von der afghanischen Autorin Idries Shah präsentiert, die seit mehr als 30 Jahren Geschichten aus der Sufi-Tradition sammelt und sie an die zeitgenössische westliche Kultur anpasst. Solche Geschichten, die seit der Antike in Zentralasien und im Nahen Osten erzählt werden, werden verwendet, um Menschen jeden Alters zu grö erer geistiger Flexibilität und Einsicht zu verhelfen. Die alte Frau und der Adler wird wunderbar von Natasha Delmar illustriert, die von ihrem Vater, dem gefeierten klassischen chinesischen Maler Ng Yi-Ching, das Malen gelernt hat.
