by JanZiolkowski (Author)
Solomon, famous from the Bible is pit against a wily peasant named Marcolf. The king and jester, sage and fool, prophet and blasphemer bandy back and forth questions and comments. Whereas Solomon is solemn and pompous, Marcolf resorts to low language and earthy topics. Marcolf tricks Solomon time and again.
