More Fables of La Fontaine
(William Heinemann Ltd., 1925)
Marsh had just published Forty-Two Fables of La Fontaine in the same year with (Heinemann in England and?) Harper in the US. In the preface to the 1931 complete translation of La Fontaine in two volumes for Heinemann, he ...
La Fontaine: Fables Choisies
(L. Martinet: Librairies-Imprimeries Réunies, 1900)
Bodemann 368.3. There are twenty-eight strong full-page colored illustrations here. Each of them echoes a page in the two volumes of Imagerie Artistique: 20 Fables de La Fontaine and are signed by the same artists. These ...
La Fontaines Fabler
(Gidlunds, Fäiths Tryckeri, 1987)
There are twenty-five fables here, with texts in Swedish rhymed verse never over one page in length. Thus each fable gets a two-page spread with the text on the left and a full-page black-and-white drawing on the right. ...
Fables Choisies de la Fontaine.
(Vanlinthout et Cie, 1852)
My first book published in Louvain. A cursory examination suggests that almost all of LaFontaine's fables are here. Additional selections include fourteen from Florian, eleven from Abbé Reyre, and nine from others. This ...
La storia della Lepre et la Tartaruga e tante altre.
(Dami Editore, 1989)
Delightful pictures illustrate this kids' book. The best of them include the title page of the cat-grandma reading to the mice children, the fattened weasel getting caught in the narrow passage through which he entered ...
Fables of La Fontaine
(Thomas R. Knox & Co., 1879)
A very curious book. Compare it with my 1841 and 1860 editions of Wright's translation that use Grandville as illustrator. The surprises start when Book I's title page comes before the book's title page! The 240 or so ...
Fables
(Presses Pocket, 1989)
An excellent pocket edition of the complete fables, not including the posthumous fables or the stories usually attached to the fable collection. The main source is given under the title of each fable. There is a good ...
La Fontaine: Fables, Tome I
(Libraire-Editeur Papyria Soc. An., 1946)
I had to buy three books to get this one volume, new to me. Now I learn that it sets me on the search for a further volume! This is a typical large-format French post-WWII edition containing ten fables. It has a canvas ...
Fables de La Fontaine
(Librairie Hachette, 1921)
This is a 1929 reprint of a book whose original I have listed under 1921?; Bodemann describes that original very well (#409) and lists it as ca. 1921. This copy, owned by the Newark Free Public Library, has a date of 1929 ...
Cinquante fables de Jean de La Fontaine
(Aux dépens de Claude Tchou pour T.M.T.M., 1988)
The existence of this book is news to me. I consider myself lucky to have found it on eBay. Génot-Boulanger writes a pointed two-page prologue. He rightly asserts that La Fontaine is mostly 1) a children's book that is ...
