Abstract

en_US My earliest edition to date had been an 1804 edition from Philadelphia. This edition from Dublin follows the format known from that volume. I note several differences. The preface here starts one paragraph with J'ai évité where the American version has On évite. The last sentence of the preface is completely different. In this version Perrin dares to promise himself that an impartial and judicious public will recognize the utility of the changes he has made. There the last sentence refers rather to small changes made in the morals of individual fables. In the story of The Boy and the Butterfly he is here a garçon (28) and there an enfant (56). This edition does not give a running vocabulary beneath each fable. The running vocabularies are gathered rather in a section (117-220) after the 140 fables are finished and a two-page concentrated vocabulary is offered (115-16). There are finally several pages of advertisements at the back. See my comments under 1804 and 1840.
