- Abstract
- en_US Bodemann #222.3, Volume Two. This is a new edition of the work first published in 1814 and again in 1818 by Lefèvre, this time--as in 1814--as part of a six-volume Oeuvres de La Fontaine. This seems to be the first edition including the editing and notes of Walckenaer. (An 1821 children's edition by Nepveu seems to have excerpted some of his new work.) The illustrations--one illustration per book--seem to be engravings after the originals by Moreau le jeune, apparently in the 1814 edition. The illustrations iln this second volume are MM (7); Le Savetier et le Financier (54): Les deux Pigeons (124); Le Berger et le Roi (163); Le Paysan du Danube (213); and Daphnis et Alcimadure (247). How nice to happen across this important edition on Alibris! The spine is deteriorating, and the front cover is loose.
