- Abstract
- en_US The bulk of this book is a set of 150 Aesopic fables done into Dutch verse. The fables are divided into these subsets: stories from mythology, animals (alone or with people), humans (alone or with gods), nature, and anecdotes. I am surprised that they do not seem tied to the Greek or Latin editions or their numbering systems. The fables are adorned by sixteen small Steinhoewel illustrations; Steinhoewel's figure of Aesop is on the cover. The illustrations are well reproduced. Before the fables there is an 88-page introduction covering, e.g., the definition, types, and history of fables. After the fables, there are a bibliography, a T of C, a list of illustrations, and an AI. I am surprised that I had not known of this book earlier.
