    Historia Vitae Fortunaeque Aesopi, cum Fabulis Illius 

    Aesop; Camerarius, Joachim (Ex Officina Recente Valentini Papae, 1544)
    First, this little book has caused me as much anguish as any I have tried to win for the collection. For over three years I have been looking for it, thinking it lost. I presumed as a last hope that the book had got in ...

    Aesopi Phrygis Fabulae Elegantissimis iconibus veras animalium species ad viuum adumbrantibus 

    Aesop; Babrius; Knopff, Adam; Pigres; Planudes, Maximus; Prodromus, Theodore (Apud Ioan. Tornaesiumapud Ioannem Tornaesium, 1551)
    This little book is an earlier edition of what had long been the oldest book in the collection, listed under 1619? This book is Bodemann #29. What a great thing! Bodemann's twenty-ninth oldest book! See my description ...

    The Moral Fables of Robert Henryson 

    Henryson, Robert; Irving, David (The Maitland Club, 1570)
    A lovely old book, the cover of which is in bad shape. This is not a facsimile but a reprint, and so the print is much more legible than in the Da Capo edition. The morals are printed in contemporary script. T of C near ...

    Aesop: The Morall Fabillis of Esope the Phrygian 

    Henryson, Robert (Da Capo Press: Plenum Pulbishing, 1570)
    This is a facsimile of the 13 fables in this very early collection. Seven-line stanzas, medium print quality, difficult vocabulary and orthography.

    Fabeln von Erasmus Alberus 

    No Author (Greif Buecherei, 1550)
    Here is a third copy of this book. Good strong rhymes in Gothic script. The Nachwort is real Third Reich stuff, speaking of eine Rückkehr zu den Urkraftquellen deutschen Volkstums. The stories are all Aesopic. There ...

    Mythologia Ethica 

    Freitag, Arnold (Philippe Galle, Christophorus Plantinus/George Ladias Limited, 1579)
    This may be the first true emblem book in this collection, and it is high time. This is a fine example. Bodemann (51.1) may be slightly incorrect when it gives the sequence for each of these 125 fables. On the left page ...

    Emblematum Libellus 

    Alciati, Andrea (Christian Wechel/Wissenschaftliche BuchgesellschaftWissenschaftliche Buchgeselschaft, 1542)
    This is my first chance to look more carefully into Alciato. This volume itself is one of many good books I found at Wirthwein. I had not known that the Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellschaft had done a reprint of Alciato's ...

    Esopo No Fabulas 

    No Author (Benseisha Co., 1593)
    Fr. Francis Mathy was good enough to order this for me after we found out in our conversation with Satoru Obara, S.J., that this facsimile was still in print. Obara reports on this booklet in his little monograph, Companions ...

    Aesopi Phrygis Fabulae Elegantissimis iconibus veras animalium species ad viuum adumbrantibus 

    No Author (apud Ioannem Tornaesium, 1570)
    Here is a precious addition to the collection, both for its antiquity and its excellent condition. The one shortcoming of its condition is that the title-page seems to be a xerox copy. As Bodemann #29.2, it fits into ...

    The Moral Fables of Aesop by Robert Henryson 

    Gopen, George D; Henryson, Robert (Scottish Academic PressUniv. of Notre Dame Press, 1571)
    A first-rate piece of scholarship that puts Henryson within our reach. Very readable versions of the 13 fables. Henryson's morals are strongly allegorical and (like the fables) lengthy, but the stories are well done, ...
