De Krekel en de Mier en Andere Fabels van Jean La Fontaine
(A.J.G. Strengholt's Uitgeversmaatschappij N.V., 1945)
Here are twelve of La Fontaine's French text fables with an etching and Dutch comments for each. Each fable follows a four-page rhythm: title, illustration, French text, and Dutch comments. Perhaps the best among the ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Jâques Munroe & Cie., 1841)
Munroe seems to have been quite the active American publisher of French literature. This makes at least the fourth volume I have from that firm. This is a handy student volume. The selection of fables looks complete. ...
Fables de La Fontaine avec Les Commentaires de Coste, Tome Second
(Chez Billois, 1810)
Here is a second copy of a book already in the collection which belonged formerly to the Kensington Public Library. This copy has superior leather covers and binding but lacks two of the engravings found in the other copy. ...
Fables de La Fontaine: Texte intégral et preface avec 358 Illustrations de Grandville
(Hasso Ebeling, 1984)
This is a huge book in large format (about 9 x 12) running to 640 pages and many pounds! All for under $10! The paper is foxing around the edges. The advantage of this book by comparison with almost all other Grandville ...
La Fontaine: Selected Fables

Les Fables de La Fontaine
(Éditions Lito, 1974)
This is my seventh book illustrated by Monique Gorde, and it seems distinct from the other six. Here are thirty-one fables illustrated on 78 pages in a large-format children's book 9 x 10½. As always, Gorde imbues her ...
Fábulas de La Fontaine
(Editorial Molino, 1941)
This is my third book in the series that also includes my 1939 edition, Fábulas de Tomas de Iriarte and my 1941 edition, Fábulas de Principe. I still have their Aesop and Samaniego -- at least -- to find. Here there is ...
Fables Mises en Vers, Tome I
(Librairie Armand Colin, 1960)
Bibliothèque de Cluny is a series of some fifty or sixty French and international classics. This is a standard paperback of the first six books of La Fontaine's fables, with an introduction at the beginning and notes, ...
Fables de La Fontaine, Tome Cinquieme
(Chez Bossange, Masson eet BessonChez Bossanges Masson et Besson ...,, 1796)
This is Volume 5 of 6 volumes, comprising Books 9 through 11. Bodemann lists this edition as derivative from Vivier's limited edition of 1787 by Pierre Didot l'aîné. The eBay seller mentions that there are fifty illustrations ...
La Fontaine: Selected Fables
(Clarendon Press, 1918)
Earlier I had found a copy of the 1944 printing of this book. This is the 1927 printing noted there. Several things set it off from that later book. Oxford University Press in 1927 boasted of eight place names on the ...
