La Fontaine: Fables
(Éditions du Panthéon, 1961)
This is a nice looking edition, often using two colors for the texts. No editor is acknowledged. I like the Dandelot water-color illustrations. They are big, bold, and colorful. Unless the cover counts as one of the ...
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 ...
La Fontaine Fables: Livres 1 a 6
(Larousse, 1991)
Here is a standard Larousse paperback text for French secondary students. About two-thirds of the fables of Books I-VI appear here. There is a T of C on 142-44. It is preceded by good sample questions on five particular ...
Fables de La Fontaine, précédées de la vie d'Ésope
(Lebigre Frères, Libraires, 1839)
Nouvelle Édition, collationnée sur la belle Édition de M.P. Didot l'Ainé. I have smaller illustrated Lebigre editions from 1835 and 1836. Here is an unillustrated edition in standard format. Since it is unillustrated, ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Editions Lito, 1991)
Some fifty-six fables on 123 pages, with a T of C at the back. The seventeen illustrations, all black-and-white and taking a full page, show some good imagination. True to La Fontaine's version, the hare is playing a ...
Selected Fables by La Fontaine
(Duke Press: A Martello Publication, 1995)
I am surprised that I had not heard earlier of this publication. I note that Maureen Charlton died in Dublin in 2007. A second surprise is the price of this book. One reason for its expense is Charlton's signature. Are ...
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 ...
Le Liévre [sic] et la Tortuë Mis en Fable par Différens Auteurs
(en l'École Municipale Estienne, 1914)
Before writing anything else, I must point out what seems to me a major mistake in this student book. The first four presentations of Lièvre get the accent wrong! Those presentations are on the cover, on the first and ...
Fables de la Fontaine
(J.M. Dent & Sons Ltd.,, 1906)
An English introduction praises Keen's book for enabling the learner to appreciate the fables' literary charm while she or he learns the language, particularly French word formation and vocabulary. Forty-one fables are ...
Fables Inédites des XIIe, XIIIe et XIVe Siècles et Fables de la Fontaine
(Etienne Cabin, 1825)
A treasurehouse in a volume in surprisingly good condition. Robert's claim is to have collected, with each LaFontaine fable, the Greek, Latin, French, Italian, Spanish, German, English, Dutch, and Oriental treatments of ...
