LaFontaine Seçme Masallar [Cover: LaFontaine'den Massallar]
(Serhat YSD, 1984)
About this Turkish book I will not be able to write much. Its dust jacket cover features a composite picture of animals involved in La Fontaine's fables. Inside, there is a life of La Fontaine, followed by fables without ...
La Fontaine: Fables
(Librairie Aristide Quillet, 1930)
This is a rather standard mid-sized (5 x 7) edition of La Fontaine's fables, but it adds several curious features. There are several illustrations, not of fables, but of La Fontaine and his home in Château-Thierry. The ...
Le Songe d'un Habitant du Mogol & autres fables de la Fontaine
(Réunion des Musées nationaux, Imprimerie nationale, 1989)
This is a delightful large-format book of some 192 pages featuring the fifty-nine miniatures painted by Imam Bakhsh at the court of Lahore from 1837 on. As far as I can understand, these miniatures are now preserved at ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Librairie Hachette, 1921)
The last page signals that this is the 1931 printing of Lorioux' work, which originally appeared in 1921. See my comments on the original edition, also by Hachette, under 1921? This edition changes the cover to offer a ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Imagerie d'Épinal, Pellerin & Cie., 1890)
This large (16½ x 12½) book represents a wonderful find. It brings together the broadsides or posters I have found from Pellerin/Épinal, displayed at http://aesop.creighton.edu/jcupub/newpage47.htm. And so it fills in ...
Jean de la Fontaine: Fables
(GF-Flammarion, 1995)
I am surprised that I had missed this sturdy 538-page paperback. I am glad to find it now. Besides providing a full text of the fables, it offers more copious notes--ninety pages worth--than the usual paperback edition. ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Editions G.P., 1949)
Bodemann 466.1. The special feature of this book of one hundred and five fables is the full-page photolithographs by Auger. I find sixteen in all, including a good frontispiece (5) of La Fontaine and the animals and a ...
Fables de La Fontaine, Précédées de la vie d'Ésope, suivies de Philémon et Baucis, et des filles de Minée; Nouvelle Édition, dans laquelle on aperçoit d'un coup d'oeil la moralité de la fable
(Chez Mame et Cie, Imprimeurs-Libraires, 1834)
Here is a small (3½ x 5½), typical French edition of La Fontaine from the 1830's. Perhaps the only remarkable thing about the edition, shared with many later editions from Mame, is that it italicizes the morality portion ...
Jean de la Fontaine: Fables. Volume I
(Éditions Nicolas, 1946)
This small paperbound volume is 4 x 5½. This first volume has an exquisite engraving of FS on its cover in the style of the early woodcuts. There are forty-seven fables here, followed by a T of C. There are also some ...
Fables de la Fontaine, Album No. 2
(Imagerie de Pont-à-Mousson, Marcel Vagné et ses Fils, Imprimeurs-ÉditeursLouis Vagné, 1910)
This oversized book that staples together twenty posters seems to me to be a poor man's Pellerin. Each Planche is numbered, from 21 through 40. There is a good deal of crayoning evident in the book, on the backs of some ...
