Abstract

en_US Is that "The fable vendor is back"? Bruno Coppens solicited remakes of La Fontaine's FC and got these responses. There seem to be about a dozen poetic responses and about five cartoon presentations. As the back cover points out, some are, by turns, exotic, anti-academic, politically incorrect, romantic, cynical, erudite. There is a bit of everything here: poetry, prose, drama, individual cartoons, cartoon panels, painting. Coppens himself has two submissions. One is titled "Le corps beau et l'heureux noir." Go ahead and say it! It has an appropriate accompanying photograph of a painting or drawing. Another favorite cartoon -- perhaps from Coppens again? -- makes the letters of the FC title into the scene itself (51). I suspect that several of these pieces have a certain amount of "Abruxellation," that is, "Brusselizing" of their terminology. I delight to see people enjoying fables this way. Even I can make delightful sense out of Coppens' verse letter sent to his invited collaborators in the "Préfable" (5-7). Good fun!
