- Abstract
- en_US This sixteen-page pamphlet reproduces two of the eight stories from Pierre Perret: Les Fables de Jean de la Fontaine d'Apres les Fables Géométriques de Fantome from the same publisher in the same year. At last I have found all four books produced from that larger work! As I mentioned there, the texts here, transformed from those of La Fontaine, accent the funny and poetic. The wolf and lamb are here presented as chess figures on a large board with a prominent castle in the foreground. At the end of the fable, the king and queen get mentioned, and the chess metaphor works brilliantly for Perret's critique. In the second fable, the courtly peacock is getting music lessons from animals dressed like Mozart. One such animal is a little bird, while the other is an ass. Hm….. After the four or five pages of presentation of either story in its updated and visually geometric form, La Fontaine's text follows. My reaction to these individual pairs of stories is much the same reaction I had to the larger book. I love the images and wish I could understand more of Perret's versions of these fables! I have now found one of the toys, and will look for more. I am delighted to complete the set of the pamphlets.
