The Original Fables of La Fontaine
(London: J.M. Dent and Sons/NY: E.P. Dutton, 1913)
Almost identical with my 1913/30? edition. The cover here has a picture (not MM, which appears on the blue 1913/36/38 edition, but the fox and wolf in pails in the well), and the frontispiece picture does not have the ...
Fables Choisies Mises en Vers par M. de La Fontaine, Tome I
(Louis Conard, 1930)
Bodemann #425. Here is a real treasure! I think I did not realize what I was getting when I bid on this set of books. Each fable has a lovely colored woodcut about a third of a page in size. An early note indicates the ...
Fables de la Fontaine
(Editions G.P.Éditions G. P., 1960)
This is a large-format (10½ x 7¾) children's reader and picture-book of some 36 pages. It has experienced significant wear as a library book; it has a standard library hard-cover. It offers one or two lively, colorful, ...
fables choisies de La Fontaine II.
(Librairie Larousse, 1971)
A typical French graduate student text, complete with possible exam questions. A few black-and-white illustrations from Doré, Grandville, and Rabier. I am fortunate to have found three different printings. The title-page ...
Le favole di La Fontaine
(Arnoldo MondadoriIl Melograno, 1971)
Realistic and playful drawings of animals in courtly human garb. I do not see any I would take now, but they are better-than-average. It may be difficult to get some away from the text, since they are so well arranged ...
Fabels van La Fontaine
(Prisma paperback: Spectrum, 1940)
Excellent reproductions of Grandville's engravings, better than in the 1946 first printing. Also a different cover. The last of these Dutch fables has a different translator, M. Nijhoff.
One Hundred Fables by La Fontaine
(Ginn and Company, 1906)
A helpful little book inscribed in Cambridge. I think the book's first gift lies in its identification of one hundred of LaFontaine's 238 fables for special attention. The copious English notes at the rear help someone ...
Jean de La Fontaine: Bajky
(Statni Nakladatelstvi Krasne Literatury, Hudby a UmeniStátni Nakladatelství krásné literatury a umění, 1959)
This book represents a serious undertaking. It is a nicely bound, sturdy, large book, complete with a place-marking ribbon. It covers apparently the whole corpus of La Fontaine's fables. The large, bold black-and-white ...
The Twelve de la Fontaine Fables as Painted in the Dining Saloon M.V. Dalerdijk
(Holland-America Line, 1950)
This pamphlet (4½ x 6½) contains a black-and-white illustration and an English text in rhyming couplets for each of twelve La Fontaine fables. They include: FC, Death and the Woodcutter, The two Bulls and the Frog, UP, ...
La Fonten Masallari
(Dost Kitaplar, 1983)
Here among many paperbacks from Turkey is a hardbound book with a dj. In fact, it could not easily be identified without the dj, since its cover and spine are unmarked white heavy paper. The cover has several colored ...
