Fables de La Fontaine Enrichies de Gravures
(J.B. Rolland & Fils, 1890)
This is one of the legion of French editions whose title-page claims dans laquelle on aperçoit d'un coup d'oeil la moralité de la fable. It is an undistinguished 306-page text for students with a T of C at the end except ...
Neuf Fables de la Fontaine
(Club du Livre Sélectionné, 1957)
I enjoy this work. The cover and frontispiece of this unstapled pamphlet show La Fontaine extending out from an oval portrait and offering a book of fables. The frontispiece notes that this copy was printed for Monsieur ...
La Fontaine: Fables
(Éditions Garnier Frères, 1950)
This sturdy hardbound book is about as standard as it gets. The pleasant additions here to the usual book of La Fontaine's fables include a reproduction of Chauveau's WC on the orange cloth cover and eight full-page ...
Fables de La Fontaine, Tome II: Livres VIII-XII
(H. Fournier Ainé, 1838)
This edition seems to me to be identical with that which I have listed under the same publishers and year, having acquired it from Pangloss Books in Cambridge. I make a separate listing here to be on the safe side, since ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Editions G.P., 1949)
This book seems intermediate between my 1949 and 1962 versions. Its 1956 date comes from the dust jacket, lacking in either of the other two copies. It adds a crown design saying Bibliotheque rouge et or Souveraine on ...
Select Fables of La Fontaine With English Notes
(Whittaker and Co./Bell and Daldy, 1864)
This schoolbook offers one-hundred-and-twenty fables with extensive English notes. There are four pages of advertisements at either end of the book. Formerly the property of the Department of Romance Languages at the ...
Les Plus Belles Fables de la Fontaine: 20 Fables Choisies
(Verlag Moritz Diesterweg, 1974)
Before the fables start in this 80-page pamphlet, there is a helpful two-page Bestiaire des Fables, picturing various animals who will appear in these fables. Vocabularies for individual fables then drive students back ...
Jean de la Fontaine: Fables, Livres VII à XII
(Editions Slatkine, 1995)
This is a very attractive little book, with a colored version of Oudry's The Coach and the Fly in two different color-intensities on its cover. The book offers the integral text of La Fontaine's last six books with all ...
Fables de La Fontaine, No. 1
(Philips, 1955)
Here ten fables are shown and read by Yves-Gérard le Dantec. A 45 rpm record is part of the book; it has its own little envelope inside the front cover. Monochrome and polychrome pages alternate. The illustrations are ...
Jean de la Fontaine: Fables I
(Roissard, 1962)
This volume contains the first six books of La Fontaine's fables. Bouffay's style is like nothing I have seen before. It is entirely in black-and-white. The illustrations, all full-page, present a character rather than ...
