Ezopische Fabelen van Fedrus, gevryden Slaef des Keizers Augustus
(Steven van Esveldt boekverkoper in de Kalverstraat, her derde huis van de Roomsche Kerk de Papegaay,, 1769)
A wonderful book, in good shape for being 220 years old! Third edition of 1704 original, with new plates replacing those of van Vianen. Dedicated to the Princess of Nassau. 81-97 (with one picture-plate), 175-6, and ...
Favole Esopiane
(Giacinto de Bonis, 1777)
What a treasure! Nicely worm-eaten! Index on 154-6 of the 70-80 fables, many of which seem to be post-Aesopic. Nice short-lined Italian verse. I will have to see a professional book restorer about this little gem. The ...
Aesop's Fables in English & Latin, Interlineary, for the Benefit of those who not having a Master, Would Learn Either of these Tongues
(Printed for A. and J. Churchil at the Black Swan in Pater-noster-row, 1703)
There are 337 pages for two-hundred-and-thirty fables. I think I laughed at Locke's project when I first read of it. It makes more sense to me now. He is trying to help people who cannot get to school to learn Latin, ...
Les Fables d'Ésope mises en Français, avec le sens moral en quatre vers, et des figures à chaque fable. Nouvelle édition, revue, corrigée et augmentée de la vie d'Ésope, avec figures, et les quatrains de Benserade, dédiée a la jeunesse
(Chez Dugour, 1798)
This is a lovely old edition. Among its quaint features is that it is dated An VI to reflect the French revolution. It includes a life of Aesop covering 103 pages in twenty-seven chapters, with a rectangular illustration ...
Esope En Belle Humeur, Ou Derniere Traduction Des ses Fables / Der Lustige und Anmuthige Aesopus
(Georg Olms Verlag, 1707)
This is a valuable reprint of one of the many books celebrating Aesop having fun. The frontispiece identifies Hunold as Menantes. The illustrations are only adequate. According to Bodemann, they are based upon Solis and ...
Aesop's Fables. With Instructive Morals and Reflections Abstracted from all Party Considerations, Adapted To All Capacities; and design'd to promote Religion, Morality, and Universal Benevolence
(For T. & T. Longman, C. Hitch & L. Hawes, I. Hodges I. & I. Rivinton, G. Keith & R. DodsleyPrinted by S. Richardson for T.&T. Longman C. Hitch & L. Hawes, I. Hodges, I&I Rivinton [sic], G. Keith & R. Dodsley,, 1740)
I had been working with my York Richardson from Spivey in Kansas City, which I had suspected was a second and maybe even a secondary edition. See my comments there. Now I am delighted to get this book. Some bookseller ...
Aesop's Fables with Instructive Morals
(printed for T. Wilson and R. Spence, 1740)
I have changed the date on this edition after getting a copy of a London edition, for which I have guessed a date of 1761. This edition seems to be that which Ulrike Bodemann places as a second edition of 1753, at the ...
Aesop's Fables in English & Latin, Interlineary, for the Benefit of those who not having a Master, Would Learn Either of these Tongues
(A.Bettesworth/Creative Media Partners: Gale: Cengage, 1723)
Here is a second reprint of Locke, distinct from the Kessinger reprint of 2010. It comes from an American publisher and is a copy of the second edition, not the first, and so is a helpful supplement to the 2010 reprint. ...
Fables Gravées Par Sadeler, Avec Un Discours Préliminaire Et Les Sens Moraux En Distiques
(Hachette Livre, 1743)
This is a print-on-demand xerox copy of the 1747 original. I picked it up to compare with the 1689 Sadeler edition I bought form Scott Schilb. The illustrations here of the 139 fables are fascinating. They have strong ...
Aesopi Phrygis Fabulae
(Typis H.S. Woodfall Impensis Societatis Stationariorum,, 1784)
This book has one of those long titles. It goes on Nunc demum ex Collatione Optimorum Exemplarium ab infinitis pene Mendis repurgatae, una cum nonnullis Variorum Auctorum Fabulis adjectis. Et Indice Correctiori praefixo. ...
