Die Geschichte der Abderiten

''Die Geschichte der Abderiten'' (English: ''The Story of the Abderites''), subtitled ''Eine sehr wahrscheinliche Geschichte'' (English: ''A very probable story''), is a satirical novel by the German poet and writer Christoph Martin Wieland. Written between 1773 and 1779, it was published in part in the periodical ''Der teutsche Merkur'' (''The German Mercury'') in 1774 and was first issued as a collection in book form in 1780. It satirises the pettiness of the inhabitants of small-town Germany, using the ancient Greek town of Abdera as a stand-in for the contemporary German towns which Wieland was critiquing.
==Synopsis==

The book is set in the ancient Greek town of Abdera in Thrace and is divided into five chapters, each depicting a different aspect of the Abderites' foolishness. In the first, ''Demokritus unter der Abderiten'', the philosopher Democritus returns to his home town but finds that the inhabitants doubt his sanity. The second chapter, ''Hippocrates in Abdera'', portrays the physician Hippocrates evaluating Democritus and finding him sane, but the townspeople mad. ''Euripides in Abdera'', the third chapter, is principally a literary satire that reflects the contemporary German enthusiasm for the theatre, while the fourth chapter, ''Der Prozeß um des Esels Schatten'', depicts a legal battle between an ass driver and the animal's hirer, highlighting the extreme litigiousness of the Abderites. In the final part, ''Die Frösche der Latona'', divisions between rival sects of frog-worshippers mean that the Abderites fail to take action against the town's sacred frogs and consequently find themselves being driven out of their homes. At the end of the book, Wieland makes his satirical intent clear with the statement that although Abdera had long since disappeared, the Abderites still exist and are to be found in every town and city in Germany.〔
