La Fontaine: A tücsök es a hangya
(Mora Ferenc Könyvkiadó, 1977)
On this foray into the old Eastern Europe, I found Jean Effel more than once. It is good to see that an excellent artist was picked up and reproduced in the Eastern Block countries! This edition includes 21 fables with ...
Les Fables de La Fontaine pour Bebe
(Théodore Lefèvre et Cie., 1886)
This book reproduces another in the collection, but with several changes. It might be several years younger than my other copy. Notice these differences. On the front cover, the publisher's name is inside the frame ...
The Grasshopper and the Ant and other La Fontaine Fables
(Grolier Society, 1968)
I could not remember this booklet, and I happened to be right: I did not have it previously. I do have the parallel 1967 Grolier edition The Fox and the Stork And Other La Fontaine Fables. Note that this book uses small ...
Fables of La Fontaine, Two Volumes in One
(Tappan and Dennet; NY: Willliam A. Colman/London: Edward Moxon, 1841)
My brother John and I parked in front of this shop at almost exactly 6 p.m. to visit another store in Sonoma, which turned out to be closed by then. Upon our return to Chanticleer, they announced that they were closed, ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Imprimerie Moderne de Nantess.n., 1960)
Ten fables in a squarish hardbound edition that includes a colored illustration for each fable and some black-and-whites besides. This book seems a clear partial reprint in smaller format of of Marcus' 1949 edition with ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Furne et Compagnie, 1855)
Lovely engravings, eight by Johannot and four by Moreau le Jeune, besides an unclaimed frontispiece portrait of LaFontaine. Since there is no list of illustrations, let me mention all twelve, with + for the best. ...
Fables of La Fontaine
(Golden Pleasure Books, 1962)
Excellent runs on the ten colored illustrations of Trnka, which also appear in the 1974 and 1974/85 editions by Grund and Exeter. The best of these is the cover featuring the wolf as shepherd. There are good black-and-white ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Editions Lito, 1995)
This book of eight fables is an abbreviated version of the 1992 edition from the same publisher and illustrator, Les Fables de la Fontaine. As there, the illustrations emphasize cuteness and childlike fun. The characters ...
Fables de La Fontaine: Édition Illustrée
(Henri Plon; Morizot, 1880)
This book represents a lovely find. I feared, as so often, that I was probably purchasing something that I already had. As so often, I was wrong on that. The book is in the tradition of my two volume set of La Fontaine ...
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 ...
