125 Fabler
(Syddansk Universitetsforlag, 2007)
This is a classy publication, including an embossed title on its cloth cover and 125 Gheeraerts illustrations. Each of the 125 fables gets a two-page spread, with text and illustration each given a page. I am disappointed ...
The Fables of Aesop
(Readers Library Publishing CompanyThe Readers Library Publishing Co., Ltd, 1932)
Here is a strange find from a strange place. I had presumed for a long time that this was a duplicate of a book I already had. Closer inspection seems to indicate otherwise. It has an unusual colored pictorial cover of ...
Skeealyn Aesop: A Selection of Aesop's Fables
(S.K. Broadbent/Kessinger Publishing, 1901)
This book reprints a book of bilingual fables along with poems by Edward Farquhar of Cregneish. There is nothing in this book that was not in the original, I believe, except for three things: the covers with their simple ...
The Fables of Aesop Adapted to the Hamiltonian System, By an Analytical and Interlineal Translation
(W. Aylott & Co., 1850)
For the Use of Schools and Private Learners. Here is yet another interlinear presentation of Aesop. A Google search revealed a Gospel of St. John published in the 1830's according to the Hamiltonian system along with ...
Esopo Volgariato per Uno da Siena: Testo di Lingua Accommodato ad Uso De' Giovanetti
(Dalla Stamperia Del Vaglio, 1863)
This looks at first glimpse like a standard middle-sized-format collection, on (viii +) 128 pages, of some sixty-three fables in Italian with vocabulary footnotes. It is that, but below the last fable on 126 we read that ...
Vita Di Esopo Frigio, Prudente, & Facetto Favelatore
(Per Il Cestari, 1664)
Here is a great little addition to the collection. It most closely approximates Bodemann #52.3 but was published nine years earlier. The publisher there is listed as Erben des Giovanni Baptista Cestari, with a publication ...
Aesop's Fables [Korean]
(YearimdangYerimdang, 1985)
This book is an earlier duplicate of a book I have listed under 1990. The bibliographical information is, I believe, otherwise the same. This copy, rather than a front cover depicting only GA, has a melange of GA, LM, ...
My First Book of Fables
(The Children's Press, 1949)
I had thought this book was identical internally with the book of the same title published by Collins (1950?). See my comments there. There are actually many differences. This book adds four fables for a total of fourteen. ...
The Fables of Aesop
(Three Sirens Press on spine. NY: De Luxe Editions: Illustrated Editions Co, 1857)
I cannot get over the plethora of 1931 and 1931/33 Bennett editions! This one is identical with my 1857/1931/33 editions except for two features: both cover materials are different, this one featuring green felt and woven ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable.
(Hurst & Company, 1890)
I have spent lots of time with this curious, overpriced book. Its cover presents several good Aesopic images. Its text plates, including T of C, ninety-nine fables, and their pagination, are identical with those in the ...
