Abstract

en_US After an introduction, a note on the illustrations, and a bibliography, there are 118 vignettes, followed by a table listing their fable titles. The vignettes have been slightly enlarged, from 67mm x 52mm to 85mm x 68mm. Their quality is only moderate. Be careful: only right hand pages are numbered, but the left-hand pages are still counted. And there are two numbered illustrations on each numbered page. When I reviewed another reproduction of Chauveau's work, under 1668/1930, I found these illustrations strong: Simonides Protected (#14), MSA (#41), and The Doctors (#91). Now I will add from this edition: OR (#21), SS (#31), The Drunkard and His Wife (#47), The Wolves and the Sheep (#53), The Donkey and the Lapdog (#65), The Oracle and the Impious Man (#78), The Stag and the Vine (#94), TB (#99), and The Horse and the Ass (#115). Formerly owned by the French Seminar at the University of Melbourne.
