- Abstract
- en_US This little (3½" x 5¼") volume reproduces the first edition of Florian from six years earlier in a similar format. It is newly typeset, has fewer pages, and its six illustrations are mirror redoings of the original artwork, now done on stiffer paper. As there, so here are Florian's five books of fables, with 21, 19, 20, 20, and 20 fables in them, respectively. There is again a frontispiece portrait of Florian, still complete with an illustration of the swan pulling the hare across the water on a raft. The first fable of each book is also illustrated here, as there: "La Fable et la Vérité"; "La Mere, l'Enfant et les Sarigues"; "Les Singes et le Léopard"; "Le Savant et le Fermier"; and "Le Berger et le Rossignol." This book was reduced from €85 to €22.80!
