Abstract

en_US Here is a later printing of a book I found printed in 1992 on a trip to Paris in 1997. In Paris again in 2009 and unsure whether I had this edition, I picked up another copy. This copy, which is printed in Italy rather than France, turns out to be different. The T of C at the end has been reset for a good reason. Two of the 1992 stories were printed without their second pages! Now Le Combat des Rats et des Belettes (60 here) and L'Alouette et ses Petits avec le Maître d'un Champ (64 here) both have their second pages, lacking before. The book before the T of C thus now runs to 78 pages rather than 76. My, what we find if we look! In this copy, the color of the monochrome pages changes at times from green in the earlier copy to black, as on 14, 66, 74, and 78. As I write there, this is a very nice selection of Rabier's work, done by the same publisher that published his work originally. True to the 1906 edition, the illustrations mix monochrome and multi-colored pages. 63 fables, about half in color.
