Fables de Florian
(HoudailleHoudaillle et Cie, Éditeurs, 1840)
This is Bodemann #289.3. The first and second editions of it were apparently both done in 1838, and so Bodemann dates this edition--done by a new publisher--after 1838. The special charm of this book lies in its ...
Fables de Florian
(Belin-Leprieur et Morizot, LibrairesBerlin-Leprieur et Morizot, 1847)
Bodemann has a listing (#313.1) that is very close. It seems to describe this book but ascribes it to Henry for the texts and Fernique & Cie for the lithographs. The publisher listed here is Belin-Leprieur et Morizot, ...
Florian's Fables Book V
(E. Ponsonby et al, 1894)
Here is a handy little volume that could be a distinct help the next time I work with Florian. There are 34 pages of texts and commentary, followed by an unpaginated 36-page vocabulary. The notes beginning on 24 are ...
A Selection of Fables from Florian and Other Authors
(J. Hatchard and Son 187 Picadilly,, 1837)
It is rare to find Florian translated into English. In this small (3½ x 5½) pamphlet one finds twelve from Florian, three from Dodsley, and three Scraps from a Portfolio. Most of Florian's twelve are in my collections ...
Fables de Florian suivie d'un Choix de Fables de nos meilleurs Fabulistes
(Librairie de l'Enfance et de la Jeunesse, P.-C. Lehuby, 1870)
The standard five books of fables by Florian--illustrated with the twenty engravings of Bouchot's work--are followed here by one or more fables by about thirty-five other French authors without illustration. This is a ...
Fables Choisies de J.-P. Claris de Florian, Premiere Série
(Librairie Marpon & Flammarion, 1896)
Bodemann 375.2. The friendly people at Ripping Yarns found this pair of volumes while I was off getting money for the great things I had already found. They were not sure that I would want it, and they were also not sure ...

Fables Choisies de J.-P. Claris de Florian, Premiere & Deuxième Série
(Librairie Marpon & Flammarion, 1896)
Bodemann 375.2. These two volumes bound together seem to belong to this second listing of Bodemann's (and not to 375.1) because the size fits (20 x 15 cm.), but not all of her description seems to fit. This is another ...
Florian: Fables, Précédées d'une Étude sur la Fable, Suivies de Tobie et de Ruth et Accompagnées de Notes
(Librairie Hachette et Cie, 1881)
I am surprised to learn that this handy little volume is my first Hachette copy of Florian. The five books of fables seem to be all there on this book's 140 pages, with an AI at the back and a few simple designs along the way.
Fables de Florian
(P. Rouquette, Éditeur, 1882)
This is a fine little (4¼ x 6?) book of Florian's fables with a lovely binding of leather and marbled boards. Its special quality is its illustrations (about 2¼ x 1½) in three states, separated by slipsheets. The ...
