Phaedrus Construed: The Fables of Phaedrus Construed Into English
(Kessinger PublishingSimpkin, Marshall, and Company/Kessinger Legacy Reprints, 1847)
The title-page adds For the use of grammar schools. This is as thoroughgoing a pony as I have seen! I thought Locke was destroying Latin by doing an interlinear translation. This book goes a step further and adds a ...
Phaedrus, Select Fables: Translated Literally In the Latin Order, For the Use Of Charterhouse School
(M. Sewell/Kessinger Publishing's Legacy Reprints, 1853)
This is perhaps the thinnest of the On Demand Reprints that I have found. In its 33 pages one finds first some forty Latin fables of Phaedrus. Then there are simple verse translations of the same. That is all that this ...
Phaedri Augusti Liberti Fabularum Aesopiarum Libri Quinque (Spine: Cornelii Nepotis)
(R. Bregeaut, 1837)
Bound with Cornelii Nepotis Vitae. Includes Perotti's Appendix and an AI. Every fable also has its own (unrelated) end-piece; perhaps the best of these shows two travelers approaching a city (50). The best feature of ...
Römische Fabeldichter: 2. Bändchen: Aesopische Fabeln des Phädrus
(J.B. Metzlersche Buchhandlung, 1886)
This pamphlet comprises Books 3-5 of Phaedrus. It thus picks up where the translations in Pamphlet 24 B left off. And its pagination picks up at 113, at the very point at which that edition left off. However, this book ...
Phädrus Aesopische Fabeln. Bändchen 1, Abthlg. B, Buch 1, 2
(Metzlersche Buchhandlung, 1880)
This poor little (about 4 x 5¼) pamphlet has suffered. Perhaps some pages are missing, since it starts abruptly in the midst of a sentence of the introduction on 81. However, it finishes on 112 with a translation of the ...
Phaedri Fabularum Aesopiarum libri quinque, quales omni parte illustratos publicavit Joann. Gottlob. Sam. Schwabe. Accedunt Romuli Fabularum Aesopiarum libri quatuor, quibus novas Phaedri Fabellas cum notulis variorum et suis subjunxit J. B. Gail.
(Colligebat Nicolaus Eligius LemaireN.E. Lamaire, 1819)
Apparently Jean Baptiste Gail took the ample 1806 edition of Johann Samuel Schwabe and made it even more ample. The T of C at the end of this volume is itself exhausting as it moves through manuscripts, editions, and ...
Fables and Satires, With a Preface on the Esopean Fable
(Archibald Constable and Co., 1809)
There are three sections here, before four satires and notes (211) on both volumes. Beware: Volume the Second is placed by mistake in the midst of notes on the first volume (233). New to me in the first section, a ...
Fables and Satires, With a Preface on the Esopean Fable
(Archibald Constable and Co.Constable Hunter, Park, and Hunter,, 1809)
My first volumes by a baronet! Leather binding and cover-edges. Marbled covers and page edges. Excellent condition. The preface begins with a bold self-advertisement of this attempt to present [Esopean fable] in a less ...
Les Fables de Phèdre: Édition paléographique d'après le manuscrit Rosanbo.
(Imprimerie nationale, 1893)
Ex libris Joseph M. Gleason. See xcvii of Perry's Babrius and Phaedrus for praise of this book. See also Pack Carnes' (as yet unpublished) Phaedrus bibliography, which calls this an accurate paleographic reproduction of ...
Aesop's Fables as Romanized by Phaedrus, with a Literal Interlinear Translation, Accompanied by Illustrative Notes on the Plan Recommended by Mr. Locke
(And Hatchard and Son Piccadilly,Printed for John Taylor, 1828)
See my later printing of this book--the eleventh edition--from 1845. The publisher will change then to Taylor and Walton. For comments see Carnes. The introduction to this literal translation of Phaedrus explains the ...
