9781948013512: The Magic Horse - Das Zauberpferd: Bilingual English-German Edition - Zweisprachige Ausgabe Englisch-Deutsch (Teaching Stories)
The Magic Horse is the story of two brothers, one highly skilled in the practical arts, and the other, Prince Tambal, considered by most people to be only a dreamer. Their father, the King, announces a competition to produce "interesting and useful devices" – the entry produced by a woodcarver appears to be only a simple wooden horse, nothing more than a toy, apparently of little value. But, when Prince Tambal examines the horse more closely, he discovers that the horse is able to magically transport its rider to whatever place is in the rider's mind. In this way, Prince Tambal comes to learn a great many things, and eventually, to know "his heart's desire".This book is one of a series of illustrated Teaching-Stories by Idries Shah, stories which have captivated hearts and minds for more than a thousand years. The stories are designed to help children learn to examine their assumptions and to think for themselves. In the Sufi tradition there is a continuum between the children’s story, the entertainment or folklore story, and the instructional or instrumental story. A story can help children deal with difficult situations and give them something to hold on to, while the same story can stimulate a deeper understanding in adults.Das Zauberpferd ist die Geschichte von zwei Brüdern: der eine ist überaus geschickt im Kunsthandwerk, der andere, Prinz Tambal, wird von den meisten Leuten für einen Träumer gehalten. Ihr Vater, der König, kündigt einen Wettbewerb an, für den „interessante und nützliche Geräte“ geschaffen werden sollen. Eines der präsentierten Dinge ist ein hölzernes Pferd – nicht viel mehr als ein Spielzeug und scheinbar ohne besonderen Wert. Aber als Prinz Tambal das Pferd genauer untersucht, entdeckt er, dass es seinen Reiter auf magische Weise an jeden Ort tragen kann, an den der Reiter gerade denkt. Auf diese Weise lernt Prinz Tambal viele Dinge, und erfüllt sich am Ende auch seinen „Herzenswunsch“. Dieses Buch gehört zu einer Reihe von illustrierten Lehrgeschichten für Kinder von Idries Shah – Geschichten, die schon seit Jahrtausenden die Herzen und Köpfe von Menschen jeden Alters erobern. Sie sollen Kinder dazu anregen, sich ihre vorgefassten Meinungen genauer anzusehen und eigenständig zu denken. In der Sufi-Tradition sind Kindergeschichten, Volksmärchen und Lehrgeschichten oft eng miteinander verwoben. Eine Geschichte kann Kindern helfen, schwierige Situationen zu meistern und ihnen Halt und Unterstützung bieten. Sie kann aber auch bei Erwachsenen Einsicht und tieferes Verständnis erwecken.

About the Author:
Idries Shah spent much of his life collecting Sufi classical narratives and teaching stories from oral and written sources in the Middle East and Central Asia and publishing them in book form. The eleven tales he wrote especially for children are published by Hoopoe as beautifully illustrated books, all of which have been commended by Western educators and psychologists, the Library of Congress, National Public Radio and other media for their unique ability to foster social-emotional development, thinking skills and perception in children and adults alike. Told for centuries, these stories express universal themes and a positive representation of important but often misunderstood cultures, showing how much we have in common and what we can learn from each other. They acknowledge a child's individuality and uniqueness and encourage a sense of confidence, responsibility and purpose. Idries Shah machte es sich zur Lebensaufgabe, klassische Sufi-Erzählungen und -Lehrgeschichten aus mündlich und schriftlich überlieferten Quellen im Nahen und Mittleren Osten und Zentralasien zu sammeln und diese in Buchform zu veröffentlichen. Shahs elf Geschichten für Kinder - in sehr schön illustrierten Büchern von Hoopoe herausgegeben - werden von westlichen Pädagogen und Psychologen sowie von der US-Bibliothek des Kongresses, dem Radiosender "National Public Radio" und anderen Medien empfohlen, weil sie die sozial-emotionale Entwicklung sowie Denk- und Wahrnehmungsfähigkeiten bei Kindern wie auch Erwachsenen auf besondere Weise fördern. Diese Geschichten, die schon seit Jahrhunderten erzählt werden, handeln von universellen Themen und stellen wichtige - jedoch oft missverstandene - Kulturen positiv dar. Sie zeigen, wie viel Gemeinsames wir haben und wie wir voneinander lernen können. Bei dieser Art von Erzählen wird jedes Kind als einzigartiges Individuum anerkannt und gerade dadurch können Selbstvertrauen, Verantwortlichkeit und Zielstrebigkeit ermutigt werden.
