Ésope: Le Renard Qui Avait la Queue Coupée et Autres Fables.
(Enfantimages: Éditions Gallimard, 1857)
Beautifully reproduced colored pictures of seventeen fables from Bennett. The color work may be superior to that in editions from this country. The clever cover-picture is not included inside the book. The Wolf in the ...
12: Fables
(1955)
This is a typical Japanese fable book as I have come to know them. I am guessing that it is in a series of twenty-five books. They are listed on the last page, which for Western readers is where we look for the first ...
Labyrinte de Versailles
(Nicolaus Visscher, 1683)
Finding this book was a terrific surprise! Laurence Veyrier had shown me a number of fable books. As I finished, she mentioned offhand that I probably would not be interested in the Versailles labyrinth. I have looked ...
The Fables of Esope, Translated Out of Frensshe
(The Gregynog Press, 1931)
There are ninety-seven fables of Romulus in five books and seventeen further Aesop's fables in Caxton's late medieval versions. Caxton's ever-present slashes have been well replaced with colons. The title-picture includes ...
Aesop's Four Footed Fables
(Star Rover House, 1985)
A strange book combining typed text and crude two-colored illustrations. The best pictures are those of the dog and sow (5) and of the camel looking in the mirror (35). The text of The Cat and the Rats catches the ...
The Little Esop
(Philadelphia: Smith and Peck; New Haven: Durrie and Peck, 1844)
A wonderful little treasure. The paper is stained, but the book is otherwise in great shape. The best illustrations are The Stag and His Horns (29) and LM (45). In versions different from the usual, the mouse gets into ...
The Fables of Aesop
(Henry Altemus, 1899)
This book seems a cheaper version of the Altemus' Young People's Library edition; see the two copies of this edition listed nearby. This book shares the same spine format with the Yoffee copy there, but has a dark ...
The Fables of Aesop
(JBL & Co., 1880)
This is a curious little book without title-page. It contains Croxall's dedication, preface, and usual AI in addition to all the fables with their longish applications, but it lacks the index to the morals at the end. ...
Aesop's Fables
(Checkerboard Press, 1989)
Almost identical with the most recent Brimax edition, Aesop's Fables: A Collection of Aesop's Fables (1981/84/88) by the same author and illustrator. There are some differences here: the title graphics on the cover, the ...
Rusés comme un renard
(Circonflexe, 1993)
How nice to find a French edition of a real favorite of mine. See my comments on the original, Foxy Fables, in 1986. All six fables from there are reproduced here: FC, The Fox and the Goat, FS, The Cat and the Fox, The ...
